Read the concluding paragraphs of "John F. Kennedy's Moon Speech—Rice University."But if I were to say, my fellow citizens, that

we shall send to the moon, 240,000 miles away from the control station in Houston, a giant rocket more than 300 feet tall, ... and then return it safely to earth, re-entering the atmosphere at speeds of over 25,000 miles per hour, causing heat about half that of the temperature of the sun—almost as hot as it is here today—and do all this, and do it right, and do it first before this decade is out—then we must be bold.. . .Many years ago the great British explorer George Mallory, who was to die on Mount Everest, was asked why did he want to climb it. He said, "Because it is there."Well, space is there, and we're going to climb it, and the moon and the planets are there, and new hopes for knowledge and peace are there. And, therefore, as we set sail we ask God's blessing on the most hazardous and dangerous and greatest adventure on which man has ever embarked.Which options most accurately identify phrases from the excerpt that represent a call to action?(Select all that apply.)A. John F. Kennedy's Moon Speech—Rice UniversityB. ... new hopes for knowledge and peace are thereC. ... and do all this, and do it right, and do it first before this decade is out—then we must be boldD. ... space is there, and we're going to climb itE. ... therefore, as we set sail we ask God's blessing

Answer:

The answers are C and D are the correct answer.

Explanation:

Moon Speech - Rice University was addressed on September 12, 1962. The official name was <em>Address at Rice University on the Nation's Space Effort</em>, and president John F. Kennedy delivered it.

Letter C is correct because the speaker mentions that it is necessary to do something, and it also indicates how it should be done (boldly;) it is also mentioned that it is necessary to achieve the goal soon.

Letter D is also correct; as seen at the end of that phrase, the speaker mentions a future action when he says and we're going to climb. It is necessary to mention that the speaker uses the first person of plural we in both cases, to indicate that he is part of a group.

What might the Toleration Act reveal to us about the state of affairs in the colony at the time? How did the events taking place
Westkost [7]

Answer:

The Toleration Act of 1688 reflects that there was a high degree of religious intolerance both in Britain and in the United States.

In fact, religious intolerance is the main reason why the New England Colonies were founded in first place: they were settled by Puritan Separatists fleeing religious persecution.

The American colonies were largely independet of Britain, but they were still influenced by British affairs. The Toleration Act led to the development of a more tolerant culture in the colonies, because it attracted many British settlers from herethodox denominations who were now protected by the act.
