Answer:

Foreshadowing

Explanation:

This is most likely to be an example of foreshadowing. In this passage, Miss Ophelia is worried about the possibility of Topsy being sold if her owner were to die. This is why she wants to own her as soon as possible and thus ensure her well-being. This is an example of foreshadowing because the owner will indeed die shortly, and the scenario will take place, except that it will be other slaves who are sold, and not Topsy.

Answer:

An ancient Greek historian named Herodotus called Egypt the "Gift of the Nile" because the Egyptian people depended on the great river. Each year, the Nile would overflow its banks and flood the land. When the flood subsided, it left behind bits of soil and plant life called silt that was rich in nutrients and allowed the people of Ancient Egypt to grow crops on the land. Most people lived near the Nile River as the land beyond was the Sahara Desert. Egypt's northern border is the Mediterranean Sea.

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Her doggedness in fighting for the rights of women and that of the African Americans made her an extraordinary woman of her time.

Explanation:

Eleanor Roosevelt was one of the most influential women in the history of the world, whose illustrious life and advocacy for the rights of women in particular, and the rights of African Americans in general, made her cynosure of hope and a role model to many. Despite being the longest-serving first lady of the United States of America, she campaigned for women's rights and became a great source of inspiration to African American women. She was instrumental in the abolition of child labor and the increase in the minimum wages of women. She also spoke against discrimination and advocated for racial equality and desegregation.
