I believe the answer is 'tobacco' - that commodity drove the new global economy in the late 18th century.
Answer:
The correct answer is: I had a much better understanding of how they worked.
Explanation:
The correct answer is the second one, due to the verb tense consistency.
Verb tense consistency refers to keeping the same tense throughout a clause. If you use a past tense in a sentence, you must finish it in the same manner. When you use a certain tense you must be consistent throughout the sentence.
For example:
We <u>watched </u>the movie, and then we <u>went </u>to dinner.
The name of the fallacy with the statement "The Gorps would have you believe that all you need to be happy is green beans, but those of us with heads on our shoulders know better'' is <em>argumentum ad lapidem </em>or appeal to the stone. This is the answer because the speaker is implying that the argument of Gorps is absurd but he is not providing any information or evidence that it's absurd. His only evidence is that 'those among us with heads on ours shoulders know better' and that's it.
Answer:
"Determined, she tried again."
Explanation:
Out of these examples I think that the irony in Atticus losing, and getting gifts is the most significant. The reason why I think this irony is so important is because it doesn't seem so ironic to me. It becomes very distinct if you really understand the situation and all of its facets. Atticus is a strongly praised lawyer and community activist, and he decided to sacrifice it all for his own morality. Atticus knew he was losing his friends and his rank, but he nevertheless chose to defend Tom Robinson. Not only did Atticus defend Tom, he, without even thinking about it, defended him thoroughly and to the best of his capacity. I don't think Atticus has been celebrated for losing, for defying the ordinary, and for being a respectable person.
