6 0

Answer:

The evidence from the passage which best shows Ishmael's circumstances is:

"Again, I always go to sea as a sailor because they make a point of paying me for my trouble, whereas they never pay passengers a single penny that I ever heard of." (paragraph 5)

Explanation:

The above evidence shows that Ishmael was a hired hand in the Pequod, a whaling ship led by captain Ahab.  Ahab was obsessed with the whale that had bit off his legs during a previous voyage.  Based on the earlier incident, he led his crew to a catastrophic revenge adventure, which claimed the life of all crew members except Ishmael.  The plot of this novel is captured in the epic novel titled "Moby D..k," authored by Herman Melville (1851).

Explain 2 reasons why soap became more popular in america in the 1800’s
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

  • The discovery of the French Nicolas Leblanc and Michel Chevreul on how to make soaps.
  • The end of the luxury products tax on soap.

Explanation:

In 1800 the soap became a popular product widely used in practically all purposes. In addition to the concepts of hygiene and cleanliness having increased at that time, the discovery of the French Nicholas Leblanc and Michael Chevreul about the manufacture of soap, allowed this product to be seen in the markets in a more recurrent way. This is because the soap was laboriously manufactured, with difficult ingredients, however these two Frenchmen managed to develop an alternative manufacture that was fast and effective, allowing the soap to be made available to everyone.

In addition, it was during this period that the soap stopped being taxed as a luxury item, which left it with affordable prices for all families.
