Answer:

Explanation:  BATTLE OF LEXINGTON

First Act

In the colonies an atmosphere of anxiety reigned over the news issued by Dr. Joseph Warrien that an attack was coming by British troops under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Francis Smith, so the settlers were on high alert.

Scene I

Narrator: Dr. Joseph Warrien suddenly enters to give important news. His countenance was of total concern.

Dr. Josep Warrien: People, we must be vigilant, on alert… there is nothing to fail. It is a fact that British soldiers took a weapons depot in Concord and most likely attack us at any time.

John Adams: It is important to recruit soldiers and choose a wise man to lead our troops. I suggest George Washington. Well, his performance during all this time has been impeccable.

George Washington: Thank you very much for the trust you place in me.

Second Act

Scene II

After an endless battle, the army in charge of the commander in chief, George Washington, was assembled, drawing conclusions from his men's combat against the English troop in Bunker Hill.

George Washington: (With a face of fatigue and visibly tired) this fight is bloody, we are at a disadvantage, but we will not give up. We have managed to endure the attack.

Thomas Jefferson: However, we must be careful with those militiamen who support the English army. They are treacherous people without national identity, for not fighting for this cause and being in favor of the tyranny of the English Crown.

Narrator: The soldiers retired to rest.

Third Act

Scene III

Narrator: The American army and all the colonists in general, spent difficult days during the war, knew how to repel fighting, knew how to entrench themselves to finally emerge victorious and achieve the long-awaited independence of the United States of America from the yoke imposed by Britain.

(Meeting and addressing the congress)

George Washington: Thank you for supporting! The fight was not easy...

Thomas Jefferson: All men are born equal ... and we possess inalienable rights

Benjamin Franklin: Long live the United States of America!

John Adams: From now on we are totally free!      

         END…

In a small town, people are divided into two opposing sides. Those who support the British rule are called Loyalists while those who are against the colonizers are the Patriots. Most of the Loyalists hold office positions and felt that the British will win the war. However, the Patriots still want to gain independence from the colonizers.

Why does a.minimum wage exist?
LekaFEV [45]
Arguments in favour of a minimum wage mostly hang on the idea that firms have a responsibility to ensure that their workers earn enough to live on. If a firm can’t pay its workers enough to live on, then it isn’t a viable business, because it is dependent on wage subsidies. Of course “enough to live on” depends where you live: the cost of living in London is considerably higher than it is in, say, Newcastle, so a minimum wage that would give a reasonable standard of living in Newcastle is starvation level in London. The campaign for a voluntary Living Wage tries to persuade firms to pay above the current UK minimum wage, which is perceived as being below the real cost of living.
