The Kwantung Army of the Empire of Japan invaded Manchuria on September 18th 1931
Answer:
Explanation:
I looked it up to see what kind of a book it was and I read only the publisher's blub.
A: not a choice. I think you have to put it in the context of the 1870s or 80s. The author is little beyond that time. If it were me, I'd pick the falling in love answer. I like modern women's literature, not because it plays on the heartstrings (which it does) but because it presents women's grief and dilemma pretty honestly. But I think the 1870s especially dealing with a minority's grief would not chose this as a topic -- certainly not a serious one. So much as I would choose A, I doubt the novel would.
B: I don't think I'd choose B either. Victoriano sounds like an honorable man to me. He sympathizes with Clarence's problem and offers him a reasonable assurance that the women would not be present. From what we can gather, that turns out to be true. Clarence does not seem to have met anyone.
C: Trite though the detail is, it should happen.
D: I do not see Victoriano as the bad guy. I don't sense betrayal in him. I think I'll choose D as well.
E. I thought this already happened.
The construction of the Erie Canal.
<em>"New York’s geographical advantage was supplemented by the construction of the Erie Canal (1817–1825), and with the establishment of the Black Ball Line in 1818. While the Erie Canal connected the Hudson River to the Great Lakes and consequently to the fastest-growing parts of America west of the Appalachian Mountains, the Black Ball Line provided the first-ever regularly scheduled transatlantic passenger service. Both the Canal and the Line helped to solidify New York’s place as America’s center of commercial trade and central transportation hub."</em>
