Answer:

The right to use Pearl Harbor as a naval base.

Explanation:

For several decades, the sugar farmers in Hawaii had been economically disadvantaged by United States import taxes tariffs placed on their farm product, and as a result had been making efforts to negotiate for a free trade agreement. There had been two previous attempts at reaching an agreement with the United States which all failed, due to many reasons. The planters sought after a treaty, but the Hawaiian citizens were afraid it would pilot to annexation by the United States.

In the year 1872 The Reciprocity Treaty was signed which allowed Hawaii to trade sugar with the United States without any paying of taxes, duties or tariffs, this greatly increasing plantation profits for the Hawaiians and also gave the United States the right to use Pearl Harbor as a naval base.

What do you believe the impact on cognitive development could be during middle childhood if children are encouraged to no longer
kap26 [50]

Answer:

The impact is going to be negative on the cognitive development of children in their middle states of childhood if they are taught NOT to read print books, handwrite or memorize math facts.

Explanation:

During middle childhood, the ability of children to use concepts, symbols,  images, and rules increases, along with their vocabulary capacity.

The middle childhood stage is crucial because it covers the stage of concrete operations and the beginning of the stage of formal operations.

In this period, the child is expected to learn a wide range of academic skills and to develop the skill to solve increasingly difficult problems.

So to encourage them not to read print books, handwrite and memorize facts at this stage would prove very detrimental to their academic development.

Cheers!
