My answer is : <span>D) Paul Revere's ride helped ignite a rebellion across the colonies.
The poem tells of the story of Paul Revere who awaited the signal from the his friend on the belfry arch of the North Church tower. If there were British troops marching by land, one light would be seen on the tower. If there were British troops on the sea, two lights would be lighted.
These light would signal Paul Revere and prompt him to ride through the villages to warn them of the incoming invasion and to make the village people prepare themselves in facing their enemies.
This midnight ride became the downfall of the British troops as they were caught by surprise and were not prepared to face opposition from the village people intent on fighting for their lands.</span>
Answer:
A. Alexander the Great ruled over the area from modern-day Greece to modern-day India.
Because of this, our critical thinking skills are being enhanced. When we practice causal analysis, we do not only identify what happened, but instead, we are compelled to dig deeper and learn what caused an event to happen.
D. Since the father likes taking risks in a game, he might like taking risks in life as well.
This is the best choice. Process of elimination helps when answering this question. From this excerpt, we don't have any clues that the father is possessed or says insane things. We also cannot infer that the woman knitting indicates that the character don't have good clothes to wear. During this time period many women would knit in the evening. We also can't infer that the son is not old enough to play chess. There is nothing to indicate the age of the son or that he doesn't know the rules.
