Answer:

<em>Option A. The main reason that Jackie Robinson has to write his letter to President Eisenhower is that he hopes that the president will take immediate action to curb segregation laws at the federal level.</em>

Explanation:

Jack Robinson was the first African American to play officially play in the Major League of Baseball. In 1957, in the midst of the Civil Rights movement, and after the Supreme Court has ordered all states to integrate their public schools, Governor Orval Faubus of  Arkansas used national guardsmen to block nine African American students from entering to Little Rock Central High School. This is when Jackie Robinson decided to write a letter to President Eisenhower, who up to that moment was reluctant to send federal troops to intervene, in hopes that the president would reconsider his stand and would take action.

Write an essay on the following: the importance of keeping promises (400-500) words
Elodia [21]

Answer:

Here is your 400-500 word essay on the importance of keeping promises:

When we don’t keep a promise to someone, it may make the person think that we don’t value them and that we’ve chosen to put something or someone ahead of our commitment to them. Even if it’s a small promise, the person we break that promise to now believes that they cannot rely on us or count on us for anything. Words are literal building blocks of your existence and even shape and reflect your integrity. Since we know words hold that much power, we need to always have positive intentions and never lie or say something that we won’t or don’t live up to, which includes making a promise that you intend to keep, under any circumstances.

Keeping a promise shows to the person you’re in the relationship with, whether it be a friend, schoolmate, colleague, husband, wife, child or other, that you’re an honest person and won’t try to hide anything from them, and that your intentions with them never have to be questioned. Some of us may spend so much time making promises to our loved ones, and then when we can’t follow through with them, they just end up being hurt and we feel guilty because we couldn’t make our words turn into action. Sometimes it’s out of choice, which is a very selfish act; forgetfulness, again, selfish; or maybe it’s because we just can’t follow through with it, though in the beginning, we almost knew for a fact we could.

Making false promises- a promise that is made by someone with no intent to carry it out or just to plain deceive someone- is something that could end the trust in your relationship, because that is just as bad as lying to them deliberately and it hurts the other person, especially when it’s a big promise. Even small ones hurt. That’s why we need to be aware of everything we do. We have to make our “yes” actually mean “yes” and our “no” actually mean “no”. Any situation we are faced with where we have to make a serious promise or even making a small one, no matter how big or small the promise is, we need to be sure we are absolutely positive that we will carry it out so that person can have our full trust and know that they can rely on us for anything. That is what builds a strong, healthy and happy relationship.
