<span>The author, Ron Chernow, presents Hamilton as an overly ambitious man but his ambitions were motivated not by egocentric deeds but by passion and determination to build the foundations of American success and prosperity. Clearly, his actions were influenced by ambition and not by principle. This is expressed in one example as written by Chernow, “To repudiate his legacy.” Another is “in many ways, to repudiate the modern world.” </span>
Answer - Race as a categorizing term referring to human beings was first used in the English language in the late 16th century. Until the 18th century it had a generalized meaning similar to other classifying terms such as type, sort, or kind. Occasional literature of Shakespeare’s time referred to a “race of saints” or “a race of bishops.” By the 18th century, race was widely used for sorting and ranking the peoples in the English colonies—Europeans who saw themselves as free people, Amerindians who had been conquered, and Africans who were being brought in as slave labour—and this usage continues today.
The peoples conquered and enslaved were physically different from western and northern Europeans, but such differences were not the sole cause for the construction of racial categories. The English had a long history of separating themselves from others and treating foreigners, such as the Irish, as alien “others.” By the 17th century their policies and practices in Ireland had led to an image of the Irish as “savages” who were incapable of being civilized. Proposals to conquer the Irish, take over their lands, and use them as forced labour failed largely because of Irish resistance. It was then that many Englishmen turned to the idea of colonizing the New World. Their attitudes toward the Irish set precedents for how they were to treat the New World Indians and, later, Africans.
Recognition is the measure of memory used on a test that requires matching terms with correct definitions.
Answer:
Emotion-focused copying
Explanation:
A small plane has crashed in your neighborhood and you take a fire extinguisher and blankets to the scene. You then stand back and pray when you realize there is nothing you can do to help. In this situation, praying is an example of emotion-focused coping.
Emotion-focused coping techniques aid you in becoming less emotionally reactive to the stressors you face, or altering the way you experience these situations so they impact you differently.
It also involves trying to reduce the negative emotional responses associated with stress such as embarrassment, fear, anxiety, depression, excitement and frustration. This may be the only realistic option when the source of stress is outside the person’s control, like in the case of this plane crash.
