History

Answer:

British mathematician William Bourne made some of the earliest known plans for a submarine around 1578, but the world’s first working prototype was built in the 17th century by Cornelius Drebbel, a Dutch polymath and inventor in the employ of the British King James I. Drebbel’s sub was probably a modified rowboat coated in greased leather and manned by a team of oarsmen. Sometime around 1620, he used it to dive 15 feet beneath the River Thames during a demonstration witnessed by King James and thousands of astonished Londoners. Unfortunately, none of Drebbel’s plans or engineering drawings has survived to today, so historians can only guess about how his “diving boat” actually operated. Some accounts say it submerged via a collection of bladders or wooden ballast tanks, while others suggest that a sloping bow and a system of weights were used to propel the boat underwater when it was rowed at full speed.

Which example shows how immigrants resisted the “Americanization Movement”? A. enrolling in public schools to learn English B. t
Y_Kistochka [10]

<em>The correct answer is option C: Immigrants resisted the “Americanization Movement” by developing Catholic schools in cities.</em>

The Americanization Movement pursued to turn immigrants into Americans by introducing them to a variety of education programs and campaigns. Local community centers and organizations offered immigrants free classes on American history, English language as well as specific skills for developing jobs. However, many immigrants refused to assimilate into the American civic culture, so they developed Catholic schools to keep their roots. After 1890, those immigrants who started to arrive from Southern and Eastern Europe, were more likely to be Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, and Jewish. These religions were not very common in America during those times. By doing so, they were able to resist the Americanization Movement goals.
