Answer:

B. Rhetorical question

Explanation:

A rhetorical question is an "apparent question" as its purpose is not to get an answer (in fact, it does not require one) but to make a statement, and lay emphasis on some point. In the excerpt, that is what the speaker aims to do. He or she begins by stating a point: "unjust laws exist", and provides a question with several options (as if to make the reader think), and ends the question with a final option "or shall we transgress them at once?" The author is not really asking, his purpose is to lay emphasis in the point that laws are unjust and therefore, we should do something about, we should transgress them at once, and fight to make them just.

In Sudan, there was long-term conflict between:________
Rudik [331]

Answer: A) Muslim pastoralists versus Christian farmers.

Explanation:

Powerlessness to dry season has instigated broad starvation conditions among Sudanese agro-pastoralists in Eastern, Western and Southern Sudan. Starvation alleviation tasks were propelled in 1984-1985, and have since proceeded, but in some cases covered structures. The restoration of common war disturbed further the states of pastoralists in Southern Sudan and the transitional zone. The joined impact of helplessness and uncertainty has been the destabilization of enormous and expanding quantities of agro-pastoralists, who have gotten either uprooted, especially to Greater Khartoum and other huge urban communities, or exiles in neighboring nations.

Despite the adverse outcomes of the natural and security conditions, the most genuine danger to peaceful generation in Sudan rests with the developing failure of pastoralists to keep up their privileges to touching area. This risk is especially highlighted for the enormous populace of little agro-pastoralists, for whom the future possibilities seem grim. Little town based groups in Northern Sudan and crowds in Southern Sudan are not as intensely undermined. They are in any case subject to escalated commercialization, and the subsequent pattern is likewise towards impoverishment. Exacerbated residency frailty is particularly intense in the downpour grounds of Eastern, Central and Western Sudan. In these districts, crowd proprietors bear extreme limitations on the basic peaceful developments, the technique by which agro-pastoralists have overseen for a considerable length of time to keep up the practicality of their gainful interests.

In late decades, the since a long time ago settled examples of peaceful development were seriously upset. Both dry season and weakness have added to that interruption. On the dirt fields of Eastern, Central and Western Sudan, nonetheless, the main consideration remains the consistent extension in cultivating. Intently connected with this, we regularly find unapproved business woodcutting on an enormous scale.

Liberated agrarian extension on the earth fields has diminished munching territories, upset peaceful courses and blocked access to watering focuses. The circumstance was additionally exasperated by dry spell in the northern rangeland and weakness towards the south. The customary northern rangelands have decayed to the degree that groups couldn't be kept there for any time allotment, let alone until after collect. Unreliable conditions in South Kordofan blocked access to conventional touching regions frequented by Hawazma pastoralists, who would in general move and remain longer in North Kordofan. Both instability and dry season in the Sobat Basin drove Nuer gatherings to depend more on marsh touching along riverbanks and islands.

The mix of farming extension, dry season and instability has prompted the weakening in peaceful conditions. These components constrained convergence of peaceful groups in significantly diminished touching zones of the dirt fields, and furthermore heightened clashes including pastoralists, both against farmers and among themselves. The outfitted conflicts in Darfur between settled ranchers and the traveling Northern Rizeigat is one disturbing indication of the primary classification of contention. The virtual war in the Sobat Basin between two Nuer gatherings, Lou and Jikany, is a disastrous example of the second. The expansion of little arms rendered between bunch strife more crimson and out of all extents to what verifiably comprised ancestral encounters.

At the underlying foundations of every one of these contentions lies peaceful asset residency uncertainty. Numerous eyewitnesses accept that the smaller scale political methodologies of the neighborhood world class, to a degree like mediations from the bigger nation, have would in general exasperate these between bunch clashes.

How did the policies of the Qing Dynasty rulers impact the economic and social structure of China?
Andrews [41]

Dorgon was the regent for the child emperor. His policies of reappointing the Ming officials and continuing the Confucian Imperial Examinations helped the empire to stabilize and prosper.

The Manchus did not destroy Beijing and decimate the population as was commonly done. Perhaps this was because Wu Sangui and many other Ming officials had already sided with them. In this way, the Manchus persuaded other Ming officials and military leaders to surrender to them.
