Answer:

A. and E.

Explanation:

This is the article "The Scramble for Africa" by Mike Kubic.

The texts informs us about the Western Europe countries colonizing Africa; when and why that happened, what were the consequences and the means of achieving it.

At the late 1800s, news about the discovery of the interior of Africa began spreading across Europe. News about gold, silver, diamonds, minerals, rubber etc. found here, exerted a propmpt response by Europe's rulers, most notably, Belgium's King Leopold.

Freely using Africa's resources, killing people who objected them, waging bloody wars that decreased the population of the continent, Europe committed a terrible crime against Africa.

Local tribes started rebellions, but their bows, arrows and spears were no match to brutal soldiers with fire weapon.

America also had a colony in Africa, Liberia, but it served as a new home for newly freed African slaves in the 19th century.

Finally, in the second half of 20th century, African countries began gaining independance.

Act 2 Scene 6How has Juliet explained the visit to the Friar to her family?
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

She told her family that she had to go for a confession to the church.

Explanation:

In Christianity, especially Catholics, confessions are used as a means of absolving one's sinful ways through the priests. A person can go to the church and confess in the confessional booth to the priest who ill act as an intermediary for the person to God.

In William Shakespeare's "Rome and Juliet", Romeo and Juliet had fallen in love but due to the family feud between their two families, they aren't allowed to be together. So, they hatched a plan along with Friar Lawrence to get them married so that they will be together. For this to happen, they have to get married in secret. So, Juliet told her family that she has to go t the church for a confessional session with Friar Lawrence. But in reality, she was to be married to Romeo. This is just an excuse which will not arouse any suspicion on her act.
