Write the correct degree of comparison for the word given in parentheses.

English

Andreas93 [3]4 years ago

Answer: Curt gave his speech <u>most convincingly</u> of all the class.

Explanation:

There are three degrees of comparison in adverbs and adjectives: the positive, comparative and superlative.

Convincingly is an adverb. Its meaning is - <em>in a way which makes others believe that something is true or real</em>. As the word convincingly ends in<em> -ly</em>, we  add<em> 'more'</em> before the word to form the comparative (more convincingly), and '<em>most'</em> to form the superlative (most convincingly). In this case, the phrase<em> 'of all the class'</em> indicates that we need the superlative form, because we want to emphasize that Curt's speech was the most convincing speech in a whole class.

How have laws, policies, and systems developed to enforce the enslavement of black Americans before the Civil War influenced law
prisoha [69]
<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>As the Civil War came to a close, southern states began to pass a series of discriminatory state laws collectively known as black codes. While the laws varied in both content and severity from state to state—some laws actually granted freed people the right to marry or testify in court— these codes were designed to maintain the social and economic structure of racial slavery in the absence of the “peculiar institution.” The laws codified white supremacy by restricting the civic participation of freed people; the codes deprived them of the right to vote, the right to serve on juries, the right to own or carry weapons, and, in some cases, even the right to rent or lease land.</h2><h2>Slavery had been a pillar of economic stability in the region before the war; now, black codes ensured the same stability by recreating the antebellum economic structure under the façade of a free-labor system. Adhering to new “apprenticeship” laws determined within the black codes, judges bound many young African American orphans to white plantation owners who would then force them to work. Adult freedmen were forced to sign contracts with their employers—who were oftentimes their previous owners. These contracts prevented African Americans from working for more than one employer, and therefore, from positively influencing the very low wages or poor working conditions they received.</h2><h2>Any former slaves that attempted to violate or evade these contracts were fined, beaten, or arrested for vagrancy. Upon arrest, many “free” African Americans were made to work for no wages, essentially being reduced to the very definition of a slave. Although slavery had been outlawed by the Thirteenth Amendment, it effectively continued in many southern states..!!</h2>
