Answer:

He cleanse the garden.

Explanation:

"Twelve Years A Slave" by Solomon Northup is a biographical account of his life, how he became a slave after being captured, despite being a free man. The biography recollects the life of a slave and how hard it was for them to survive during the pre-Civil War times in the South.

He came to the home of his first master, William Ford, where he was taken care of. And in response to the gratitude shown to him by the Fords, Platt tends to his mistress's garden, <em>"... cleaning the walks, weeding the flower beds, and pulling up the rank grass beneath the jessamine vines" </em>for three days while recovering.

Thus, the correct answer is the first option.

Answer:

The main thing that would be different is that the United States would not exist. This would be a huge difference because it would mean that the European countries would probably still dominate the world. There are so many ways this could have played out, though.

Which of these was a reason the American colonies were fighting a war for independence in 1776?
Rufina [12.5K]
Multiple reasons. Firstly, Britain (a world-wide power) was setting humongous taxes on imported and exported goods. (As in the 'Tea Party' the Americans rebelled by throwing the tea into the sea). The colonies were irritated by this whole control, and wanted more power and say in what taxes were put on them.

What troubles was Germany facing in the 1920s that led many people (including Adolf Hitler) to join or support the Nazi Party?
ankoles [38]

Economic - During World War 1, the German economy was completely decimated. Massive hyperinflation there is so terrible that when employees receive three daily paychecks, their spouses merely spend the money on everything they can since prices are so high. And although its economy was in ruin, Germany had to provide reparations to the people it was fighting. And to top it all off, there is the great depression.

Political - Although it is far from the truth, the Treaty of Versailles forced Germany to take full responsibility for the war. The pact also required Germany to lose a sizable portion of its territory to neighboring nations including Poland, France, Belgium, and a few others. German speakers and people of German descent populated several of these countries. It becomes worse since one of Woodrow Wilson's 14 principles called for self-determination for all nations save Germany, including Austro-Hungary, a German ally.

Social - The aforementioned political motives caused many Germans to feel exploited for other people's political objectives. So it should come as no surprise that they chose a radical candidate when you repress a people like that.

Why was Russia not affected by the Great Depression?
TEA [102]

During the Five Year Plans Stalin created an almost pure command economy. If he needed food, he requisitioned it. If that didn't work, he had the country-side searched for private stocks which he confiscated, having first killed its owners. If he wanted to build a factory in the Urals, he sent people there to build it using food and materials he had requisitioned elsewhere. He killed maybe 15 million people he thought were opposing his policies. He also inspired workers very effectively, convincing them that they were building a new type of civilization, and were in fact becoming a new and better type of human being. He was helped in this endeavor by the fact that the entire rest of the world was manifestly against the Soviet experiment and wanted it to fail. The workers believed their lives depended on rapid industrialization, and given the rise of fascism, and their leaders murderous resolve, they were right.
