English

Answer:

C. "he was told to take on another ominous job. It was to be done  twice a day, usually after dusk, and always in secret." (  Paragraph 13)

Explanation:

The article "Lee Sherman and the Toxic Louisiana Bayou" tells the story of Lee Sherman and his work with PPG which turned him to be an ardent environmentalist. His work in that factory led him to advocate for safer working conditions and also for the environment as a whole.

The article narrates how Sherman was employed by Pittsburgh Plate Glass (PPG) where he was to work with chemicals harmful not only for humans but also for the environment. But despite all the harmful things, the company knew its dangerous works but had concealed them to the general public. The detail about how he had to dump tar <em>"done twice a day, usually after dusk, and always in secret"</em> shows that PPG knew their chemical dumping could have a negative effect but had decided to do it in secret.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

What does this quote mean?
goldenfox [79]
To me this quote means that taking the risk of letting an individual view you as ridiculous is one thing, but that feeling comes with the emotion of love, it roots from thinking about you lacking that same courage.

What evidence from the text supports the idea that today's Thanksgiving is an invitation tradition
yuradex [85]

In late 1863, Pres. Lincoln labeled that last Thursday in November as a national day of thanksgiving. Nonetheless, in 1939, after a request from the National Retail Dry Goods Association, Pres. Franklin Roosevelt imposed that the holiday should consistently be celebrated on the 4th Thursday of the month in order to extend the holiday shopping period by a week.

As most students in the U.S. learn, the event we consider the “first” Thanksgiving happened in Plymouth, Mass. in 1621 when the Pilgrims (who actually called themselves separatists and weren't referred to as Pilgrims until the 1870s) gathered with the local Wampanoag peoples to celebrate the fall harvest.

In 1621, the Plymouth colonists and Wampanoag Indians shared an autumn harvest feast that is acknowledged today as one of the first Thanksgiving celebrations in the colonies. For more than two centuries, days of thanksgiving were celebrated by individual colonies and states.

Thanksgiving Day is a national holiday celebrated on various dates in Canada, the United States, some of the Caribbean islands, and Liberia. ... Although Thanksgiving has historical roots in religious and cultural traditions, it has long been celebrated as a secular holiday as well.
