xcerpts? Cite evidence from the text to support your response.
Declaration of Independence

In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. . . We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved;

The Preamble to the US Constitution

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

Both excerpts indicate a general cause-and-effect relationship in their structure. In the Declaration of Independence, the cause is the oppression of the American colonies and the effect is the colonies’ desire to dissolve political connections with British rule. In the preamble, the cause is the desire to form a more perfect Union, etc., and the effect is the actual formation of the new federal government under the Constitution. The tone differs in both excerpts. With statements such as “appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions,” the Declaration of Independence uses emotional appeals to create a persuasive and direct tone. The preamble to the Constitution, on the other hand, uses a long series of claims to support a logical argument.

What contribution did Isaac asimov make to the world of modern science
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer: I do not know if this is a multiple choice question or not, but I would contend that through his numerous science works he broadly influenced modern science and sparked the interest, and even the fascination, of the public in the subject.

Explanation: American writer and university professor Isaac Asimov (1920-1992) wrote and edited hundreds of science-fiction and popular science books (and also books on many other topics) for the broad public, which made science and technology more accessible and understandable, and changed the way people thought about those disciplines. His view of robots was particularly influential: he humanized them and contributed to their depiction and their profusion in public culture.
