Answer:
The transition phrase which best connects the ideas is:

Explanation:
According to the passage, more than one thing happened when the city of Philadelphia became active once again.<u> We need to find a transition that will convey that idea of addition</u> - "besides shops opening and people coming out of their homes, ships began to sail on the river." <u>The best transition is "in addition to," which means basically the same as "besides".</u>

Explanation:
For all of the causes that made the French Revolution occur, there were reasons behind them as to why they happened. The causes were Bankruptcy of the government, influence from the American Revolution, and political inequalities. The government became bankrupt because Louis XIV and Louis XVI spent way too much money. Louis XVI had a plan to improve, so he wanted to eliminate all of the ministers who wanted to launch financial reform. Because of that, it led them to being bankrupt.
The French was influenced by the American Revolution. Because of America's success, it encouraged the French to fight for freedom.
Because of political inequalities, the nobles took advantage of not having to pay taxes, having freedom, etc. The middle class, peasants, and artisans worked very hard and actually had to pay taxes. They were not allowed to let out their opinions about political topics. Not everything was fair for everyone.
Look at the surrounding context.
For example
Jeremy was so ecstatic that he had made friends, that he began jumping up and down.
To figure out the meaning of ecstatic, you would think about the clues: 'made friends' and 'jumping up and down'. These both lead you to the idea of being very happy or excited. The actual definition is feeling or expressing overwhelming happiness or joyful excitement...
Answer:
When drug or alcohol abuse consumes a person’s life, one of the first things to go is the person’s ability to make rational, moral choices. He (or she) can no longer make the kind of simple judgments that the unaddicted can make easily. The addict will feel that getting and using drugs is more important than caring for his or her children, holding a job or being a responsible citizen. That is the kind of domination that addictive drug cravings have over the addict. It’s like the addict is in prison with no possibility of escape.
