"I saw a great many kindly acts done as we moved along," White would recall almost fondly. "The poor helped the rich, and the ri

ch helped the poor (if anybody could be called rich at such a time) to get on with their loads. I heard of cartmen demanding one hundred and fifty dollars (in hand, of course) for carrying a single load. Very likely it was so, but those cases did not come under my own notice. It did come under my notice that some cartmen worked for whatever the sufferers felt able to pay, and one I knew worked with alacrity for nothing. It takes all sorts of people to make a great fire." What evidence in this excerpt supports the theme that ordinary people can act heroically in difficult times? whats the answer to this

Incomplete question. Here are the options that complete the question;

A. Some cartmen tried to overcharge people who needed help.

B. People hurried away from the fire in large, chaotic groups.

C. Many people were unable to carry their belongings on their own.

D. Some cartmen helped others haul their belongings for little to no pay.

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>D. Some cartmen helped others haul their belongings for little to no pay.</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Remember, after the narrator had stated that some cartmen demanded up to $150 for carrying a single load, the narrator stated, <em>"</em><u><em>some cartmen </em></u><em>worked for </em><u><em>whatever the sufferers felt able to pay.</em></u><em>" </em>

Indeed, cartmen are ordinary people, and to act heroically also involves showing human sympathy. Thus, <em>since some cartmen helped others haul their belongings for little to no pay, it becomes evident that ordinary people can act heroically in difficult times.</em>

Snezhnost [94]

When considering why Henry was irritated with his mother in The Red Badge of Courage, the most effective reading strategy to realize this is reading between the lines to infere. At any moment it is said that he feels irritated with her, but there are two instances in chapter 1 that shows that. The first one is when he prepared himself emotionally for a warm welcome from his mother and she seemed cold and far away from him, while the other is when he was about to leave to the army and his mother gave him a moral speech. 'It had not been quite what he expected.' Whe can infere that he expected a hug, a kiss and an <em>I love you</em>, instead of rules of good behavior.

Socrates is accused of atheism and corrupting the youth. How are these charges be related? Why would the government find these t
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

Socrates was accused of atheism and corrupting the youth, charges that were closely linked to each other since religion was one of the fundamental pillars in ancient Greece. Thus, atheism was the negation of the social order itself, that is, the negation of the fundamental pillars of the Greek society of the time. Then, transmitting said atheism was considered by the authorities as a way of corrupting young people, making them, like him, contrary to the social order. Therefore, his actions were considered crimes by the Athenian authorities.
