Answer:

D “You are giving others better rates than you are us,” said Mr. Alexander, the representative of  the firm. “We cannot compete if you do that.”

Explanation:

The progressives reformation was a movement that gained ground between the 1890s to the 1920s in the United States of America. At that time wealthy businessmen made their monies through corrupt practices and oppression of the poor laborers. Most times, the government supported them when given bribes.

The progressives were against this. In the excerpt, it was clear that the government official was giving some companies better rates than the others and that was why Mr. Alexander went to confront them. This excerpt best supports the argument of progressives regarding the relationship between government and business.

Which of the following headlines about the sinking of the U.S.S. Maine is the best example of yellow journalism? (1) 253 Sailors
kvasek [131]

Answer:

A massive explosion of unknown origin sinks the battleship USS Maine in Cuba’s Havana harbor on February 15, 1898, killing 260 of the fewer than 400 American crew members aboard.

One of the first American battleships, the Maine weighed more than 6,000 tons and was built at a cost of more than $2 million. Ostensibly on a friendly visit, the Maine had been sent to Cuba to protect the interests of Americans there after a rebellion against Spanish rule broke out in Havana in January.

An official U.S. Naval Court of Inquiry ruled in March that the ship was blown up by a mine, without directly placing the blame on Spain. Much of Congress and a majority of the American public expressed little doubt that Spain was responsible and called for a declaration of war.

Subsequent diplomatic failures to resolve the Maine matter, coupled with United States indignation over Spain’s brutal suppression of the Cuban rebellion and continued losses to American investment, led to the outbreak of the Spanish-American War in April 1898.

Within three months, the United States had decisively defeated Spanish forces on land and sea, and in August an armistice halted the fighting. On December 12, 1898, the Treaty of Paris was signed between the United States and Spain, officially ending the Spanish-American War and granting the United States its first overseas empire with the ceding of such former Spanish possessions as Puerto Rico, Guam and the Philippines.

Is there anything like the ancient chinese merit system seen today? Explain.
eimsori [14]
<span>The ancient Chinese merit system was a bureaucratic system that allowed officials to be promoted through merit alone rather than status or wealth. This is evident today in the government of the United States; we don't elect officials because of their "ranking"or wealth, but for the values and principles they stand for. In this system, just like in ancient China, anyone can become a government official if the public deems them qualified through the way they vote.</span>
