Answer:

very common

Explanation:

According to <em>Aging Place in America</em>, a 2007 study on elders' attitudes, most elder citizens are more afraid of losing their independence than of dying. When asked what was their biggest fear, 26% of those surveyed said that they fear not being independent the most, with only 3% worried about death. In the same vein, 89% said that they want to grow old on their own home, and 55% said they don't receive significant care from their adult children, but are content with it. As shown in the study, Enid and George's fiercely independent attitude is very common.

dedylja [7]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Former colonies threw off many aspects of colonial rule, but they have kept the essential elements of the state. New states in former colonies were fundamentally different than the experiences of older states in that <em>the new states were trying to develop state institutions with not as much resources than previous states did and in less time.</em>

For instance, the first example was the House of Burgesses in the colony of Virginia. It was the first intent of Virginians to have their own legislative body to create its own laws, trying to get some independence from the British monarchy.
