Read the passage from the opinion of the court in Dred Scott v. Sandford, written by Justice Taney. The question then arises, wh

ether the provisions of the Constitution, in relation to the personal rights and privileges to which the citizen of a State should be entitled, embraced the negro African race, at that time in this country, or who might afterwards be imported, who had then or should afterwards be made free in any State; and to put it in the power of a single State to make him a citizen of the United States, and endue him with the full rights of citizenship in every other State without their consent? Does the Constitution of the United States act upon him whenever he shall be made free under the laws of a State, and raised there to the rank of a citizen, and immediately clothe him with all the privileges of a citizen in every other State, and in its own courts? Which statement could best be used as an effective counterclaim to this claim?
A. States should decide who is free and who is not.
B. A person who is free in one state cannot be a citizen.
C. Taney cannot deny Scott citizenship because it is a federal right.
D. Other states should have a say over one state's decision.

Answer:

C. Taney cannot deny Scott citizenship because it is a federal right.

Explanation:

The Constitution decides citizenship because it is a federal right. Citizenship is for the entire nation not just a single state therefore it cannot be determined by each state individually. In this passage, it debates on the rights of a citizen as determined by each state individually.

To assure our country’s freedom, the government should be able to spy on its citizens.
liberstina [14]

Answer:

Here are some ideas

Explanation:

For this type of work, keep in mind it isn't a choice that will affect you in any way. Here are some points for each side of the debate:

DISAGREE

  • Citizens should have a right to privacy.
  • Secretive government actions can result in trust in our society to weaken.
  • If spying through technology such as webcams, the wrong person could gain access.

AGREE

  • Spying on citizens planning on committing a crime through phone calls could lead to preventing a robbery, murder, or even a terrorist attack.
  • The safety of thousands of people could be kept by simply overhearing a conversation.

I really hoped this helps, we,ve all been there

In the short story “Rules of the Game” by Amy Tan, what motivates the narrator to excel at chess?
Firdavs [7]

The desire to gain "invisible strength"


Amy Tan opens the story saying, "I was six when my mother taught me the art of invisible strength. It was a strategy

for winning arguments, respect from others, and eventually, though neither of us knew it

at the time, chess games." She talks about how gaining this "invisible strength" is one of the benefits of her chess playing. This isn't just mentioned in the first paragraph, but is shown again when she says, " I discovered

that for the whole game one must gather invisible strengths and see the endgame before

the game begins." She likes that chess has all these secrets that must never be told, and prides herself on learning these as she continues to get better.

Will the question, "Which credit cards do my friends use?" likely be answered by the selection, "Credit Cards-Credit Where Credi
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer: No the question "Which credit cards do my friends use?" would not be answered by the selection "Credit Cards-Credit Where Credit's Due" because the selection is talking about the credit and where it is due not about the type of credit card your friend has or uses.

Explanation: I think the answer would be no because it is about Credit Cards-Credit not about them advertising their credit cards in themselves. It would have been different if the selection was something around the lines of "Which Credit Card Is Used Most" or "Credit Cards People Use But Which Is Best?"
