Hey Melrose5165!
During the 1920's American farmers as a group suffered great economic losses. This was due to the Great Depression, and the cycle of debt farmers incurred due to the falling farm prices and cost to purchase expensive machinery.
Hope this helps!
Question Options:
temporarily childless
biologically childless
reluctantly childless
voluntarily childless
Answer: TEMPORARILY CHILDLESS.
Explanation: In this case, Laura is said to be TEMPORARILY CHILDLESS.
A childless person is an individual that has no biological or foster children. At this moment Laura is considered temporarily childless because her childlessness is as a result of a personal decision taken by her and not a permanent situation. That is it will not last forever.
Answer:
The statement he should include to best anticipate and respond to a counterclaim is:
C. While the school board may be concerned that an after-school computer lab would be too costly, the school could save money by asking local college students to work as volunteer tutors.
Explanation:
Martell's claim is that the school should open an after-school lab so that students can use the computers to finish homework and projects that are computer based.<u> A counterclaim to that will be a statement that presents a reason why creating the lab may be a bad idea. The counterclaim has to make sense, as well as Martell's response to it (the solution he offers to the counterclaim).</u>
In letter A, the counterclaim is weak. It does not present a reason against the lab; it simply states there are people who disagree with it. We can eliminate this option.
Letter B does present a reason, but the problem is the response. It is subjective, personal. Martell would be basically attacking anyone who disagrees with him. Thus, we can also eliminate this option.
Letter C is the best option. It does present a reason - the lab could cost a lot of money - and a solution - finding volunteers to work in in. This is the choice Martell should make.
Letter D presents a response that has nothing to do with the counterclaim itself. It is also incorrect.
They are employed by the state.
