4 0

The correct answer is B, to give credit to the original source. The purpose of citations (typically at the end of a paper) is to give credit to the original source of information you used from someone else’s work. It is a required process when writing a paper, otherwise it is known as “plagiarism” or copying someone else’s work. A common citation format is MLA format, but there are other formats as well.

Lincoln's victory in the Election of 1864 was a. supported by Northern soldiers furloughed home to support McClellan at the poll

TEA [102]

Answer:

The correct answer is b: in doubt until the great Union victories in the Battles of Atlanta and Mobile Bay

Explanation:

President Lincoln (1809-1865) was re-elected in the Election of 1864 mostly because of the great Union victories in the Battles of Atlanta and Mobile Bay. These two were significant blows to the Confederacy, and until those victories, Lincoln winning the election had been much in doubt. One of the reasons was that the Civil War was taking longer than expected to come to an end - but the spirit and morale in the North were lifted due to the Union victory in the two battles. This was a crucial aspect that secured the re-election of President Lincoln, who, on November 8, defeated George McClellan (1826-1885), his Democratic competitor, once a Union general.

This 1864 presidential election was only held only for those states which had not separated themselves from the Union.

In his book, Savage Inequalities, former teacher Jonathan Kozol conducted an ethnography of public schools in major cities acros

Serggg [28]

Answer: by using local property taxes to fund public schools, trapping poor children in poor schools

Explanation: Jonathan Kozol is an American writer, educator, and activist best known for his publications on public education in the United States. In savage inequalities, Kozol pointed out how students from poor family background are trapped in poorly funded schools since public school funding comes from local property taxes which vary widely between communities.

The basis of Kozol's argument is the comparisons between rich and poor school districts, in particular the amount of money spent per child. School districts with relatively wealthy property-owners are spending over $20,000 per year per child while school districts where poor people live spend about $11,000 per year per child.

The pertinent question he asks is whether it is fair or right that the place of one's birth or residence should determine the quality of education a child is entitled to.
