Hi! :)
Answer: The attack occurred in relatively shallow water, allowing many of the damaged ships to be repaired and later returned to service.
The attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7th, 1941, dealt a major psychological blow to the United States, and caused the deaths of many servicemen.
However, regarding damage to the fleet itself, the attack wasn't a crippling blow.
First, some of the ships in the Pacific Fleet were out to sea, and were unaffected by the attack.
While many of the ships moored in Pearl Harbor were damaged to some degree, the shallow water of the harbor allowed for the recovery and repair of almost all of them.
Only three ships - the battleships Arizona and Oklahoma, and the target ship Utah - were total losses (the Utah survived the attack but sank later while being towed towards a repair location).
All other ships that were hit during the attack (a total of 29) were repaired and returned to service.
Additionally, 69 ships moored in the harbor weren't even hit during the attack.

The correct answer is D) In many cultures, a person's lack of knowledge about history will have an effect on how others will view them.
The statement about history that is not true is "In many cultures, a person's lack of knowledge about history will have an effect on how others will view them."
On the other hand, what is true about history is that the study of history allows for moral contemplation, an investment in the study of history will produce tangible results, and many current and future events will be governed by the past.
History is a very important subject. Through the study of history, we can understand the evolution of humans as groups, communities, societies, states, and nations. How changes forme the society we have today and at what cost. History gives us an identity as individuals and as countries. It helps us to morally contemplate difficult decisions made in the past that were the cause of war, territorial disputes, tyrannic decisions, independence movements, technological advancements, sociological issues, and more.
This is before the Bost Massacre, King George III of England was irritated with the colonists in America. The colonists didn't want to pay tax on English products; for example lead, glass, paint, wine and tea. In 1768 he sent 4,000 British troops as well as a bunch of warships to the colonies to show the colonists that England was in control.The colonists were really mad with how they were being treated and obviously tensions were rising. King George III was acting like he owned the people in the colonies. The colonists were not allowed to own their own guns or have any say about their own property. Soon after the troops were sent into the colonies the people had had enough of being bossed around.The colonists were so feed up with the whole situation that on March 5, 1770 a bunch of schoolboys started throwing snowballs and calling names at a guard at the Customs house in Boston. Everything escalated and got totally out of control when the guard called for back up and somebody shot off a musket. Then more people started shooting. At the end of the riot there were five colonists dead. One of the colonists was Crispus Attuck a run away slave. And he was the first black hero in the American Revolution.<span>King George III had caused all the tensions to rise because of his unfair treatment of the colonists. Anyone who is treated unfairly will react like this sooner or later.</span>
