Read the passage from My Antonia. Those girls had grown up in the first bitter-hard times, and had got little schooling themselv

es. But the younger brothers and sisters, for whom they made such sacrifices and who have had "advantages,” never seem to me, when I meet them now, half as interesting or as well educated. The older girls, who helped to break up the wild sod, learned so much from life, from poverty, from their mothers and grandmothers; they had all, like Antonia, been early awakened and made observant by coming at a tender age from an old country to a new. Which theme is best supported by the comparison in this passage? Families succeed when they work together. It is not necessarily better to have financial advantages. Town life is better than life on the prairie. It is easier to be rich than to be poor.

The correct answer is:

It is not necessarily better to have financial advantages.

"My Antonia" is a novel  by Willa Cather in 1918. The novel is about the story of the pioneers of Nebraska and their life in the Old West, making emphasis on the role of the women during that time. This excerpt mainly explains how despite their low resources, the girls learned from life, from poverty, from their mothers and grandmothers and makes a comparison of how they were even more interesting than  the younger brothers and sisters who had advantages were not better than them. Which supports the theme that is not necessarily better to have financial advantages.

What was the League of Nations? Why was there debate in the U.S. about?
son4ous [18]

The League of Nations was notably started by Woodrow Wilson, shortly after World War I. The main goal of the League of Nations was to prevent another war and keep the peace between the nations.

Although the League of Nations sounded like an amazing idea, it was ultimately a failure and did not end up working as planned in the end. The League of Nations were very weak and had no power to actually do anything, they could not enforce peace and didn't even have any troops to help. It was also very slow, often taking months to make decisions and when made had no power to act on them.

The debate you are talking about was another aspect that lead to the League of Nations downfall. The American public <em>did not </em>want to join for multiple reasons. The Americans<em> did not</em> believe in the League of Nations and would much rather keep out of European occurrences, so America never joined the League of Nations, which made it suffer.

Eventually, the League of Nations was no longer, as people felt it was useless and held no real power, although it was a good idea to begin with.
