Read the passage from the opinion of the court in Dred Scott v. Sandford, written by Justice Taney. Upon the whole, therefore, i

t is the judgment of this court, that it appears by the record before us that the plaintiff in error is not a citizen of Missouri, in the sense in which that word is used in the Constitution; and that the Circuit Court of the United States, for that reason, had no jurisdiction in the case, and could give no judgment in it. Its judgment for the defendant must, consequently, be reversed, and a mandate issued, directing the suit to be dismissed for want of jurisdiction.
What claim does Taney make in this passage?

As a citizen of Missouri, Sanford can pursue a case against Scott.

The Missouri circuit court does not have jurisdiction in the case against Sanford.

Scott should pursue his case against Sanford in a state other than Missouri.

Scott is a citizen of the United States, but not of the state of Missouri.

Which statement best describes the satire in the excerpt?
GalinKa [24]

The correct answer is Chaucer criticizes the notion that divine forgiveness

depends on giving money.

Explanation:

In this excerpt from The Canterbury Tales, the author Geoffrey Chaucer indirectly refers to the sale of indulgence or the way priests and other religious leaders pardoned people for their sins based on money. This is mentioned in "My holy pardon here can save you all... as you make offerings of gold and silver coin..." because he illustrates how money or offerings were a condition for forgiveness and for people to go to heaven "you shall enter to the bliss of heaven". Moreover, this is a satire because Chaucer uses humor to criticize the practices of the Catholic church.

The type of greeting used in a conversation depends on which of the following?
damaskus [11]
I'd sat the answer is 'all of the above'. Because 'history of the relationship' is important - you won't greet a person you've just met the same way you'd great your best friend. "Context' is also important, because you won't speak the same way at a gala, or at a casual meeting with your friends. "Type of the conversation desired" is also relevant, because the way you greet someone will lead the course of your conversation.
