Answer:

They had influence with the gods.

Explanation:

Social structure is the classification or grading of various classes of society according to their importance and position. This pyramid classed the various groups in accordance with their power and also makes it eminent for the people to understand and be aware of their social standing.

According to this pyramid, the <u>kings or more commonly known as Pharaoh were at the top of the pyramid and they possess the overall authority of the whole people, next to the gods</u>. After they are the priests who are the medium through which the people communicate with the gods. The <u>Pharaoh and the priests are believed to be influenced by the gods</u> and as such, they are given such important positions in the societal pyramid.

Yesterday, December 7, 1941—a date which will live in infamy—the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

Explanation:

F.D.R is created a sense of urgency of authority. This address was delivered to Congress to encourage the declaration of war against Japan after the bombing on Pearl Harbor.

So there’s your context. Let’s look at the wording:

“A date that will live in infamy” F.D.R uses the word infamy to imply that the day will be infamous and important for years to come. Infamy paints a much more foreboding, disturbing picture than saying something like “A date that will be regarded importantly”. Infamy carries with it a sense of dread.

“Suddenly and deliberately attacked” this is straightforward. This attack was planned in advanced by Japan as a desperate resource grab. They hoped to make the United States surrender by hitting them hard. “Suddenly and deliberately” carry surprise and forethought with them, further enforcing the impending dread to come.

In short, the impact of the language is to be deliberate. It is an attempt to show things for how they are and to show that declaring war must happen. It also demonstrates a sense of power to the date with “infamy” in the mix.

choli [55]

c) the Articles of Confederation

The Articles of Confederation became the first "law of the land" for the United States in 1781, 4 years after it was created. However, it was not very effective. In 1787 plans were made to revise it, but politicians decided to do away with the Articles, creating the US Constitution, instead.
