Answer:

C. Unmarried girls should devote themselves to painstakingly caring for their parents and demonstrating great respect for them.

Explanation:

Zhao Ban's poem "On Reverence for Parents" is an extensive expression of how unmarried women must take care of their parents. The poem 'lists' the ways unmarried girls must take care of their parents to be honorable to their ancestors.

In the poem, the speaker begins by saying <em>"Girls not yet gone out from their homes"</em> should take good care to be of servitude to their parents. She details how they must be of 'use' to their parents and help them navigate their lives. This, according to the speaker, is how <em>"[they] can honor [their] ancestors." </em>

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

denis-greek [22]

I looked this question up and found out that the underlined phrase should be "was attending". The answer choices for this question are the following:

A. noun clause

B. verb phrase

C. adjectival phrase

D. adverbial clause

Answer:

The underlined phrase is a:

B. verb phrase

Explanation:

A verb phrase consists of a main verb or of a main verb and the auxiliary or modal verbs that accompany it. Take a look at the examples below:

- Joshua sang beautifully last night. --> verb phrase is "sang"

- Eileen has gone to Ireland. --> verb phrase is "has gone"

Thus, we can easily see that "was attending" is also a verb phrase. The main verb is "attending" and the auxiliary is "was".

Answer: Option "2" is best suited to describe the view of other nations on the informality ways of Americans.

Explanation: Other people of other nations unlike Americans believe in formality as a form of respect especially towards elders, while they view informality as a form or disrespect. In a country like Asia where formality is practiced and preferred it would be wrong when an American addresses the Asians informality because his or her intentions would be interpreted as being rude.

In America and other European countries they believe informality is friendliness and openness towards the other person which to them is a virtue, regardless of age and status an American man would prefer to call you by your first name.

Answer:

Explanation:

I believe that Thomas Jefferson’s vision of America won. According to the text, it says “Jefferson advocated the power of state governments so much that when Jefferson walked about “country”, he was referring to Virginia, Gutzman says.” This shows that Thomas Jefferson’s vision of America won. Thomas Jefferson thought that to have a republican society it had to be highly decentralized. On February 17, 1801, Thomas Jefferson was elected president of the United States, but there was no more to it than beating his opponent. He viewed European societies, especially Great Britain, as corrupt, controlled by moneyed interests and afflicted with the problems that he saw as endemic in urban settings. Thomas Jefferson’s vision for the United States was that it would become an agrarian nation, composed of white yeoman farmers who owned their own lands. Thomas Jefferson won the support of Congress and became the third president of the United States.

I chose the article because it made me feel curious and wanted to learn more about how Thomas Jefferson did all of these things. This article was interesting to me because Thomas Jefferson did a lot of things like having a speech and being the third president of the United States. I feel like I’ve learned a lot of things in life that people accomplished and worked hard to do it. It didn’t change my opinion but it still made me curious about how Thomas Jefferson did all of this. I would change the situation by not giving up.

I made a connection that Thomas Jeffer is one of the people that lives in America like me and many people live here so it can be a national level for us and there is a connection that I live in America because of that. The information I learned about affects people on a local level that some history people got into a war and elections who is going to be the president.
