Question

Read the quote below from a northern schoolteacher and use the information to help you answer the question. “Wishing to work where there was the most need – there are so many places where nothing has been done for the freedmen, and where they are sorely persecuted – we came here. A schoolhouse built by the soldiers had just been destroyed by the citizens. The feeling is intensely bitter against anything northern. The affairs of the Freedmen’s Bureau have been very much mismanaged, and our government has been disgraced by the troops who were stationed here.” What can you infer from the quote above?
The Freedman’s Bureau was succeeding its goals of furthering education.
The local citizens did not support the building of the school house.
Southern citizens appreciated the work being done by this schoolteacher.
Northern soldiers got along well with the local citizens of the South.

Answer 1

Answer:

The local citizens did not support the building of the school house

Explanation:

The above quote from a northern school teacher points to one salient fact that the local citizens, in all it's entirety, never really supported the building of the school house by the soldiers.

It cannot be said that the Freedman's Bureau was succeeding in its goals of furthering education, because, we it is very glaring that the school built were destroyed by the citizens, of which they never supported in the first place.

Also, there is nowhere in the quote that suggest that the southern citizens appreciated the work being done by this school teacher.

We also cannot infer that the northern soldiers got along well with the local citizens of the south, otherwise, the local citizens won't have destroyed the school they built for them.

Answer 2

Answer:

The local citizens did not support the building of the school house.

Explanation:

The text above shows how local citizens from southern states did not support the construction of the school house established by Union soldiers. This was due to the intense grudge held by many southerners towards everything that came from the northern states. This was a very bad situation, because it prevented many southern citizens from receiving quality education, in addition, this behavior encouraged disagreements between the two sides of the country.
