Industrial Revolution: What is one the steamboat's influence can still be seen today?

History
1 answer:
Tresset [83]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Steamboats proved a popular method of commercial and passenger transportation along the Mississippi River and other inland U.S. rivers in the 19th century. Their relative speed and ability to travel against the current reduced the time and expense of shipping. Steamboats were also used to carry items like lumber. ... Though steamboats are still used today, they have been made ineffective by larger freight ships and bridges in this day and age. But steamboats are still used for crossing rivers and lakes, or taking commercial tours of Maine's rivers and lakes.  The steamboat profoundly affected the Industrial Revolution. Efficiently transporting goods and products would not have been possible without the steamboat. The steamboat's influence on the marketplace is apparent in modern society. Self-sufficiency decreased as steamboat transportation increased commercial trading capabilities. The advent of the steamboat increased dependency on manufactured goods, and personal financial well-being then became more dependent on market forces.

What political promise made Mussolini and his fascist party popular in the 1920's?
JulsSmile [24]
I would say his popularity came from his pledge to restore 'order' in the country which was plagued by mass unemployment and strikes by socialists and communists. His blackshirts beat up socialists and communists. Obviously the socialists and communists opposed his rise as did many other working class people. Some of the middle class shopkeepers, doctors, lawyers etc worried about the rise of socialism in the new Soviet Union also supported him.

Which technique does not add to the memorability of a speech?
Elanso [62]
There are many techniques that can contribute to the memorability of a speech, for example stressing the main points and explaining them  well, linking the ideas in a logical way and providing a strong conclusion. 

One technique that does not support memorability is shouting loudly key words: they might remember you but not the content of the speech.
