He is talking about the aspirations of a death man, John Cabot, and the "good" things he hoped for Georges Bank. He wanted greatness, and the reality was there was not more than a disaster. Nothing had turned the way he expected.

We can notice because of the contrast seen in the words used: He wanted lots and good fishes, (using a metaphor) and got bad and disastrous ones.

Readme [11.4K]

The correct answer to this open question is the following

I think the Industrial Revolution led to the rapid growth of cities in the northeastern states because in this region were located the big factories and fabrics that introduced mass production as their form to produce goods.

Many people from the south. who lived in the rural areas of that region, decided to move to the larger cities of the northeast precisely to get a job in the fabrics. Many immigrants came to the United States to work in factories, They came from Europe and Asia. They went to New York or Chicago, and many other cities.

Of course, the population grew and these workers, as they were poor, they had to live in poor overcrowded spaces with no ventilation at all and where disease spread quickly and easily.
