Answer: I would contend that the right answer is the D) "The white men are bad school-masters; they carry false looks, and deal in false actions; they smile in the face of the poor Indian to cheat him; they shake them by the hand to gain their confidence, to make them drunk, to deceive them, and ruin our wives."

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that a significant portion of this speech, which Black Hawk wrote in 1832, after being defeated during his attempt, and that of his tribe (including women and children), to escape across the Mississippi River, focuses on pointing out the various acts of treachery and the atrocities that the white men perpetuated on him and on his people. Apart from this quotation, in which he describes the white men as hypocritical, opportunistic, and untrustworthy, he also writes that they "do not scalp the head; but they do worse—they poison the heart, it is not pure with them." In addition, he mentions that the white men "came, year after year, to cheat them and take away their lands," and further down he reiterates his point by saying: "The white men despise the Indians, and drive them from their homes [...] The white men speak bad of the Indian, and look at him spitefully." It is, therefore, clear, that one of the major themes in this poignant speech is an openly criticism of the white men, of the hypocrisy and the malice with which they treated the Native Americans.

Read the excerpt from an adaptation of "To Build a Fire."
daser333 [38]

Answer:

The man will realize the wisdom of the old-timer’s warning.

Explanation:

"To build a fire" is a short story by Jack London, this story is about a man who travels to the Yukon ignoring the warnings from an old-timer about the deathly Yukon winters (where temperatures can reach 40 below)

In this excerpt we can see the man saying he was safe, remembering the old-timer warning and thinking that the old-timers were "rather womanish". We can see that he thinks that the warning was not real and that he was safe and will be able to survive and deal with the subzero temperatures of the Yukon, thus, the best prediction based on this excerpt is that he will likely won't be able to continue with this streak of "safeness" and he will realize the wisdom of the old-timer's warning.

David ha fabricado una caja de cartón sin tapa para guardar sus cromos la caja tiene una base cuyos lados miden 30 cm y cuya alt
Ksju [112]

Answer:

Se requieren 210 cm de cartón con un lado = 10 cm

Se requieren 70 cm de cartón con un lado = 30 cm

Explanation:

<u><em>Spanish</em></u>

Primero calcularemos el área de la superficie de la caja sin la tapa.

Los lados son de 30 cm, por lo que largo = ancho = 30 cm y alto = 10 cm

Superficie del fondo = largo * ancho = 30 * 30 = 900 cm²

Área de superficie de la parte delantera y trasera = 2 * alto * ancho = 2 * 10 * 30 = 600 cm²

Área de superficie del lado izquierdo y derecho = 2 * largo * alto = 2 * 30 * 10 = 600cm²

Superficie total = 900 + 600 + 600 = 2100 cm²

Entonces, si dividimos la superficie total por un lado (altura) = 2100cm² / 10cm = se requieren 210 cm de cartón

Se requieren 210 cm de cartón con un lado = 10 cm

o si dividimos la superficie total por un lado (largo) = 2100cm² / 30cm = se requieren 70 cm de cartón

Se requieren 70 cm de cartón con un lado = 30 cm

<u><em>English</em></u>

First we will calculate the surface area of the box without the lid.

The sides are 30 cm so length=width= 30 cm and height = 10cm

Surface area of the bottom = length *width = 30*30= 900 cm²

Surface area of  front and back = 2*height * width = 2*10*30= 600 cm²

Surface area of left and right side = 2*length*height = 2*30*10= 600cm²

Total surface area= 900+600+600= 2100 cm²

So if we divide the total surface area by one side ( height ) = 2100cm²/ 10cm= 210 cm of card board is required

210 cm of card board is required  with one side = 10 cm

or if we divide the total surface area by one side ( length ) = 2100cm²/ 30cm= 70 cm of card board is required

70 cm of card board is required  with one side = 30 cm
