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.

Franklin Roosevelt's "State of the Union Address, 1941," excerpt
borishaifa [10]

<u>What Roosevelt says is necessary to make these things possible is </u><u>HIGHER TAXES! </u>

  • This is obvious because, not only does he emphasize this, but high taxes means more government spending money to fund medicare or scientific advancements.

Which of the following identifies Andrew Solomon's main claim in the speech?
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

C. It is difficult to seek treatment for depression, as it is viewed as a glorified form  of sadness rather than a serious mental illness.

Explanation:

In his speech, Andrew Solomon narrated his ordeal with depression. This disease is one suffered by many who do not really recognize its difference with sadness. They see depression as a mood which is normal for all humans, and so they do not believe that it requires treatments. They believe that it is something that can be adapted to.

Andrew Solomon sees it differently. He compared sadness to an iron with little rust which can be overcome by just painting and polishing while he compared depression to an iron which has rusted by over a hundred years and has turned to "a pile of orange dust". So, depression is a serious medical condition that needs urgent attention.
