Answer:

B) Unions are working toward helping workers attain a better life.

Explanation:

In this quote by Samuel Gompers, the main idea is that labor unions are working towards securing better working conditions, living conditions for the workers. This quote has become more significant for its strong resilience and demand, not only for a specific group of people but for the whole working class, including children and mothers.

The post-war condition of the working class as such that there seems no possibility of attaining any solution or a better future. The labor union used this issue to make their demands for social reforms, asking for nothing great but rather<em> "more schools ... more books..."</em> and so on. They did not ask for better working conditions or an increase in their wages but rather a change in the way their children are brought up, asking for more opportunities to be educated and fewer chances of crime, revenge, etc. What the union wants is <em>"to make manhood nobler, womanhood more beautiful and childhood more happy and bright"</em>. They want what is expected of in modern society, and demands that they are given the same chance to better themselves.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

What was the political significance of the great compromise and the three-fifths compromise?
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

The two compromises established a delicate balance between the North and the South.

Explanation:

The Great Compromise of 1787, also known as the Connecticut Compromise, was a political agreement during the Constitutional Convention of 1787 that defined the structure of the legislature of the United States. Under the Compromise, the legislature would be divided in two chambers: the Senate, as the upper house, where every state would have equal representation, and the Congress, the lower house, where seats would be allocated to states proportionally, according to their population. The Three-Fifths Compromise, on the other hand, was the other great compromise agreed during the Constitutional Convention. According to this compromise, three out of every five slaves would be counted as part of the population of each slave state when allocating seats for the Congress.

<u>The political significance of these two compromises was that they established a delicate balance between the North and the South.</u> For the northern states, which were generally smaller than the southern ones, the Great Compromise meant that they would be considered as equals. For the southern states, the Three-Fifths Compromise meant that they were overrepresented. If slaves had not been counted, they'd have been a minority in Congress. However, this balance was very fragile, and the disagreements between the North and South erupted into the Civil War of 1861-65,

cestrela7 [59]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

It is correct to say that we live in a world in which the global circulation of people, information, goods, and bacteria is the danger of emerging viruses.

The medieval system of dealing with the Black Death compared with ours in that it created so much fear due to misinformation and the lack of proper solutions against the Bubonic Plague. People feared the unknown and when they saw the effects of the plague, they locked in their houses and avoided any exterior contact.

Sounds similar? Well, pretty close with what we are witnessing today with so much misinformation, drama in the way news is reported, and the lack of a true solution to cure the current pandemic.

The Bubonic Plague or Black Death devastated many European nations in the 1300s. A dramatic decline of the population in Europe in the 1300s was caused by the Bubonic Plague.

The plague arrived in Europe in 1347 through the Sicilian port of Messina. Historians considered that the Bubonic Plague killed 20 million people in Europe. The sailors that navigated the trade routes of the time got the disease in Asia. In 1340, the plague had struck nations such as China, Egypt, Syria, India, and Persia.
