jekas [21]

The correct answer is letter b.

The excerpt is written in the Simple Past and narrates a series of events that happened in a sequence.

Notice the verbs in the Simple Past : wept, wailed, fell, faded and died.

There is a verb missing  in the part " the earth stiff and cold"  The verb is grow, the Simple Past form is grew, therefore " the earth grew stiff and cold" is the correct way.

Letter A is wrong because there's a verb missing.

Letter C and letter D " the earth was growing stiff and cold" the verb grow is in the Past Continuos, " the leaves were falling from the sorrowing  trees"  the verb fall is also in the Past Continous breaking the pattern stablished.

The psychological process that leads to people making generalizations about groups of people is called _____.
agasfer [191]

Answer:

The answer is stereotyping.

Explanation:

Stereotyping is when someone makes generalization on groups of people. Like example, saying all girls love dolls and dresses, this is stereotyping since we associate girls with dolls and dresses without taking into consideration the uniqueness of each individual.

While self-fulfilling prophecy is being the person others expect you to be. Example: A child who is told by everyone that he or she is smart will eventually become smart or smarter.

Attribution, on the other hand, is an action caused by what is observed.

Implicit personality theory are biases that one person makes in forming impressions of other person.

Primary-recency is when knowledge from events is more learned if it recently occured than those not recent.

How does Alexander Hamilton’s letter to John Jay (March 14, 1779) both confirm and complicate our understanding of Alexander Ham
miskamm [114]

Answer:

Hamilton's letter helps us to understand his commitment as the freedom of the country, but it complicates our understanding of his abolitionist position, since the letter has a more widespread than specific content in relation to African Americans.

Explanation:

Hamilton's letter reaffirms his commitment to freedom within the country. Through her I understood Hamilton's motivations to start this fight against the forces, which he believed, were oppressive and limiting for the colonies. However, the letter speaks about hope in a general way, including all citizens within America, but does not specify Hamilton's position on blacks. This within the musical complicates our understanding of Hamilton as an abolitionist, since the original letter is very specific in this regard.
