Answer:
In order to be MOST precise in meaning, the underlined phrase labeled (1) should be changed to :
D) the U.S. government moved many Cherokees west to a territory that is now the State of Oklahoma.
Explanation:
The question is not complete since it does not provide the excerpt with the phrase to be substituted, here is the paragraph:
About 200 years ago the Cherokee Indians were one tribe, or "Indian Nation" that lived in the southeast part of what is now the United States. During the 1830s and 1840s, the period covered by the Indian Removal Act, many Cherokees were moved west to a territory that is now the State of Oklahoma.
The use of an active sentence emphasizes the fact that Cherokees did not move voluntarily from their land, they were forced by the U.S. Government as they were applying a new law, this gives a clearer idea of who were the active subject in this situation and that the Cherokee just had to accept what they were told to do.
A.
The person should look to create a plan of action for the future and prevent the crisis from escalating rather than dwell on why it happened.
I would say the correct answer is B. <span>focus on a key idea or a question raised by the essay to which you're responding.
The most important thing you should do when writing a response paper is to bring your attention to the main message that the original author wanted to convey. You should criticize (positively or negatively) whether the author managed to get his or her ideas through and then move on to other elements of the text.

Answer:
A. Emerson repeats the word consistency to emphasize his disapproval of compliant thinking.
Explanation:
In the book, 'Self Reliance', by Ralph Waldo Emerson, the author talked about people who wanted to be consistent in their actions. This consistency stems from the fact that they wanted to always please people who know them by certain actions or ways of life in the past. Since they do not want to be seen in a different light, they fall back to a consistent lifestyle in order to be consistent from others perspective.
Emerson condemned such compliant thinking because he was an advocate of people not being limited in their thinking. People, he believed should be able to explore and reason extensively. They should also learn from their mistakes at their own pace, not conforming to the ideas or dictates of others.
