Answer:

Milan Conference

Explanation:

The conference basically divided into two factions. Those who support the use of sign language and those who don't.

The people who don't support sign language argued that Since deaf students only consist of a small numbers of students, forcing the schools to provide experts in sign language is not cost efficient. So, they wanted deaf students to adapt and learn  lipreading so they can learn alongside with non-deaf students without using any signs.

Those who support the sign language believe it was a form of subtle discrimination. It is very hard for children to actually learn how to lipread and required to understand the subjects that are being taught at the same time. so they see sign language as something that extremely necessary.

In the end, those who oppose sign language managed to convince more people. So many deaf schools in America forbade the use of sign language.

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

This type of situation is called ambiguity.

Explanation:

In literature, ambiguity is “when the meaning of a word, phrase or sentence is uncertain”. The Cambridge Dictionary describes ambiguity as “a situation or statement that is unclear because it can be understood in more than one way”. In this specific scenario the uncertain word is “small” because we don’t know if the word is describing the size of the store or the size of the machinery.

Why did the application of Missouri territory for statehood cause two years of intense debate? (5 points) It applied to become a
masha68 [24]

Answer:

Congress was concerned about how admitting it as a slave state would affect representation and the balance of power between states.

Explanation:

During that period, Missouri was a huge area that was called Missouri Territory and by 1819, there were enough people in part of that so it could be considered a state. But to be considered a state the Congress had to approve it.

In that period there was a struggle between free states and pro-slavery states the union wanted a balance between those two and the addition of a new state could ruin that balance.

The admission of Missouri would have added a slave state to the Senate and left northern non-slave states as a minority. This is the reason the application of Missouri caused a two-year debate.
