It was a town of machinery and tall chimneys, out of which interminable [unending] serpents of smoke trailed themselves for ever

and ever, and never got uncoiled. It had a black canal in it, and a river that ran purple with ill-smelling dye, and vast piles of building full of windows where there was a rattling and a trembling all day long, and where the piston of the steam-engine worked monotonously up and down, like the head of an elephant in a state of melancholy madness.
In this passage, what animals does Dickens compare smoke and machinery to?

a serpent and an elephant
a chimney and a monster
a black canal and a steam-engine
a piston and an elephant

Over [174]

Answer:

English woman's property when she married came under the control of her husband.

Explanation:

According to married women property act, the property which was owned by women in the form of gift, investment or inheritance is naturally transferred to her husband. The law considers both legal and husband and wife to be a single entity and the husband absorbs her property.

After marriage, an English wife had all authority to own the property but she cannot control or manage it. For example, if she holds a land, she can possess the legal ownership but she cannot rent it or mortgage it or sell it.  

This act was later altered and affirmed that the wages earned by women should be treated as a separate property.

MrMuchimi
The Council of Trent consisted of a group of high officials of the Catholic church. It is not clear if it there were any designated leaders that played a leading or organizational role. The council had been called for by pope Paul III in the year 1517, which first met in December 1545 in the northern Italian city of Trent. The attendance was small. The opening session attracted only 34 leaders. These leaders were representatives of various catholic jurisdictions. The pope did not attend the meetings of the council and had no formal part in it but his legates ensured his views were always put forward. It was finally disbanded in 1563. It had engaged in talks for only four and a half years of the eighteen years it was in existence.

Describe Southern resistance to the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments. Give examples of what the South did to "get around" each of
Serhud [2]

The 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments were established after the civil war, during the period of reconstruction and intensely displeased the southern white population, because it revoked their supremacy over blacks and placed them on an equal footing with them.

These amendments prohibited the involuntary servitude of blacks, placed them as citizens and allowed them to be given the right to vote. The southern white population, in addition to seeing these amendments as an affront to their superiority, saw this as a way of using blacks to achieve northern goals to the detriment of the former Confederates.

To circumvent each of these demands, the southern white population initiated a series of racist and segregationist guidelines, which reaffirmed white supremacy and sought to strengthen the inferiority of blacks.
