English

SpyIntel [72]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: The father is greedy while Hofus is humble.

Explanation:

It would be the best contrast if the father was greedy and Hofus was humble.

In the real story, Hofus is very greedy and he is so ungrateful that he even wants to be the sun, or later a cloud and a rock.

In the end, he wants to be just the man that he was before, a poor man who is working late.

At first, he wanted to be rich and then he was not grateful because he became that, he wanted more and more, so the best contrast will be if he was humble.

What made life difficult for Hispanics in the American Southwest in the late 1800s?
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

B. They were often pushed into low-paying jobs with poor working conditions.

Explanation:

After the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848, which ended the Mexican-American War, nearly 75,000 Mexicans living in the American Southwest received US citizenship. That didn't guarantee that they would have no problems, though. The main problem they faced was that the white settlers forced them out of their land and jobs, sometimes even by force. The government didn't pay attention to the fact they couldn't return to their own land, and whenever such matters reached court, judges and lawyers would have a Mexican American landowner spend every bit of money he had.

Besides that, Mexican Americans were forced to take the worst-paying jobs with the worst conditions, often working almost like salves, cattle herders, and cartmen, or undertaking dangerous mining tasks.
