"For our subsistence here, the means hitherto hath been the yearly access of newcomers, who have supplied all our wants, for Cat

tle, and the fruits of our la[b]ours, as board, pale, smiths work etc: If this should fail, then we have other means which may supply us, as fish, viz: Cod, bass and herring, for which no place in the world exceeds us..Our civil Government is mixed: the freemen choose the magistrates every year...and at 4 courts in the year 3 out of each town (there being 8 in all) do assist the magistrates in making laws, imposing taxes, and disposing of lands: Our Churches are governed by Pastors, Teachers ruling Elders and Deacons, yet the power lies in the whole Congregation and not in the Presbytery [not in a larger council of churches] further than for order and precedence. For the natives, they are near all dead of the smallpox, so the Lord hath cleared our title to what we possess." -Letter written in Boston from John Winthrop to Sir Nathaniel Rich Mounting Conflict with Native Americans by John Winthrop (05/22/1634) Which statement best describes the colonist’s attitude towards Native Americans?

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

The given text is taken from John Winthrop's letter to Sir Nathaniel in 1634. In his letter he described about the rising conflict with the Natives. He described about the deaths inccurred on the Natives because of epidemic of small pox.

Through this letter we can infer that the colonist's attiude towards the Natives was that they felt that had a calling to reach out to the Natives and preach Christianity to them.

This claim is evident in the last line of the letter in which Winthrop writes that the <em>'Lord has cleared their title.'</em>

So, the correct answer is option D.

FOR QUESTION 2

Roosevelt described his style of foreign policy as "the exercise of intelligent forethought and of decisive action sufficiently far in advance of any likely crisis." As practiced by Roosevelt, big stick diplomacy had five components. First it was essential to possess serious military capability that would force the adversary to pay close attention. At the time that meant a world-class navy. Roosevelt never had a large army at his disposal. The other qualities were to act justly toward other nations, never to bluff, to strike only when prepared to strike hard, and the willingness to allow the adversary to save face in defeat.

The idea is negotiating peacefully but also having strength in case things go wrong. Simultaneously threatening with the "big stick", or the military, ties in heavily with the idea of Realpolitik, which implies a pursuit of political power that resembles Machiavellian ideals.It is comparable to gunboat diplomacy, as used in international politics by the powers.
