Read the excerpt about Annie Londonderry from Chapter 4 of Wheels of Change. 1 Finally, on June 25, 1894, she was off. 2 She ped

aled to New York, over good roads and bad, in eight days, but with stops to rest and earn money, she didn't reach Chicago, Illinois, until September 24. 3 It had taken her three months to travel approximately 1,300 miles, and she had more than 20,000 miles left to cover. 4 Annie Londonderry thought about giving up, but instead made some changes, trading her heavy skirts for bloomers and her Columbia bike for a much lighter men's Sterling. 5 She also decided to head east, riding back to New York and crossing the Atlantic on an ocean liner. 6 Annie traveled largely by ship through Europe, the Mideast, and Asia, taking short cycling trips at various points along the route. 7 She reached San Francisco, California, on March 23, 1895, and pedaled to Chicago to complete the journey.

Answer: why Annie made the changes she did

Explanation:

The first sentence stated that "Finally, on June 25, 1894, she was off". The sentence along with the second sentence doesn't give information regarding the reason for Annie made the changes that she made.

The sentence three stated that "It had taken her three months to travel approximately 1,300 miles, and she had more than 20,000 miles left to cover".

Without the writer not including the statistic in sentence 3, it'll have been unclear why Annie made the changes she did.

In the story "Night" Describe the 'run' and Elie's experience during the death march.
dezoksy [38]

<u>The 'run' and Elie's experience during the death march:</u>

Ellie has a harrowing experience during the run and the death march in which he witnesses inhumanity, brutality, and meanness at their height and prays to God that he never does what he had seen a son doing to his father.

Night is a book that depicts the time and conditions during the Holocaust when the Jewish people were brutally treated in the Nazi Germany Concentration Camps.

Death march was the movement of Jewish prisoners from one concentration camp to another.  During the ‘run’ in which they ran for more than forty miles,  Ellie Wiesel saw a father and son duo who were running along with them and other prisoners.

He saw how the son when he saw the father losing strength, ran past him as he had started believing that his poor, old, malnourished and exhausted father would not be able to make it. The only punishment that the incapable runners would get was a gunshot that relieved them of their miseries. The son left his father in lurch running ahead to save his own life. Though Ellie knew this truth, he did not reveal it to the old father who was still looking for his son, ignorant of the selfishness of his son.

Ellie who was with his ailing father lay exhausted in a shed after the run and prayed that he does not repeat the actions of the inhuman son and do to his own father what he saw the son doing to the poor old Rabbi father.

A boy running beside Ellie feels he cannot do anymore and gives up. He is trampled to death.  He also saw a musician and his violin trampled to death.

When they are loaded in cattle cars for transporting them to another camp, one of the strongest men, who had saved Ellie from dying due to strangulation in the car, dies of exhaustion and starvation. Only 12 out of a hundred survived when they reached the destination.

He also witnessed the sadism of German locals who threw insufficient food to start fights and killings over bread.

Harriet Tubman Conductor on the Railroad chapter 4~11 Summary
8090 [49]

Harriet Tubman: Conductor on the Underground Railroad is an interesting and well-written book that tells the story of an extraordinarily courageous and committed woman. Tubman continues to inspire those seeking dignity for all people in America. Petry's dramatization of Tubman's perseverance and sense of purpose in leading slaves to freedom shows how a motivated individual can bring about change.

Petry intends for Harriet Tubman to fill a void in an important part of United States history and asserts that "the majority of textbooks used in high schools do not give an adequate or accurate picture of the history of slavery in the United States." A completely adequate and accurate account of slavery would no doubt require many volumes, yet this biographical novel represents significant movement toward that ideal. It juxtaposes well-known historical information with details about Tubman's "underground" activities. This technique adds depth and relevance to the story of Tubman's achievements.
