The correct answer is B.

The Sedition Act of 1918 extended the Espionage Act of 1917, covering a broader range of offences they were also prohibited since its enactment, mostly those which were positioned against the goverment or the war effort.

During WWI, twosocialists, Charles Schenck and Elizabeth Baer handed out fliers in which they stated that the draft was violating the Thirteenth Amendment by obliging citizens to go to war against their will, or in other words, to oblige them to involuntary servitude.

The Supreme Court decided that the Espionage and Sedition Acts should be enforced and that in this Schenck v. United States case, obstructing the draft was considered a criminal offence.

1. As a news reporter, you have been asked to write a news feature about Jerusalem. Your assignment is to explain the importance
Andrej [43]

Jerusalem is a big city and is the capital if Israel, its one of the oldest cities in the world. It is located in the central hill country, and is near the border of the Judean desert. It is far removed from any major trade routes. Canaan was the land in which the Hebrew people settled. To the Hebrews, Canaan was the “promised land” when “God” told Abraham, the leader of the Hebrew people, that the land would belong to the people who will descend from him. At the time when they settled, the Hebrews were not wealthy and didn’t have any power. They wrote many books about their history and anything that was related to their religion, called “Judaism.” In 2000 B.C., Canaan was located to the right, next to the Mediterranean Sea. On the map of Canaan in the Ancient Middle East, the city of Jerusalem is located to the left of the Dead Sea. In the eleventh century B.C. a powerful group of people called the Philistines came from across the Mediterranean Sea and then settled. Israelites, who were also living in Canaan, were challenged for land possession. The Israelites decided that the people should unite and live under just one ruler. The Hebrews thought that they should have a king who is just and good. Later, there was a war with the Philistines, which caused the kingdom to fall apart. A man named David helped defeat the Philistines by throwing a stone so powerfully that it killed one of the Philistines warriors. Under the command of David, the Israelites had success with getting their territory back. The Hebrew army ended up capturing the city of Jerusalem from the Philistines, and later, David made the city as capital of his kingdom. Then the Israelites decided to call it the City of David. Solomon is the son of David. He became the king when David was an old man and gave up the throne. Solomon made a temple in Jerusalem and ruled with many skills like diplomacy. Solomon’s temple became a special center for Hebrew worship. Using the temple, people offered sacrifices of animals, fruit or grain in order to honor “God.” Jerusalem was an important city because for many people, some of the religions for many different people originated there. The Hebrews didn’t enjoy when the philistines threatened Canaan. Apart from the Israelites the Hebrews thought that having a single king was a bad idea, they decided God is ruling the people. Their army of the Hebrew People helped defeat the philistines during the war with them and captured Jerusalem. Some of the Hebrews decided to try worshiping more than one "God," but that brought the Hebrew people trouble. The Hebrews were warned that they might be forced to leave their land. They ignored such warning, which led to another group of people, called the Assyrians, to appear and cause problems. The Assyrians have destroyed the kingdom of the Israelites. Other people like another king named Nebuchadnezzar, also attacked Jerusalem and caused other problems. Some people were captured and taken to a place called Babylon. Some of the Hebrews who stayed in Jerusalem tried to rebel against Nebuchadnezzar. This lead to more attacks, and later, a siege for Jerusalem. Nebuchadnezzar sent his people, the Babylonians after Jerusalem. The interaction between the Hebrews and Babylonians was not very friendly. Many of the Israelites ended up being slaves in Babylon and spent a long time in captivity. Overall, there was no friendly interaction between the Hebrews, Assyrians, and Babylonians, as there was nothing but fighting, war, and captivity.
