Excerpt adapted from Telling All Americans’ Stories: Introduction to European Heritage

English
1 answer:
likoan [24]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The author describes how people came from “England,  Ireland, the German and Russian empires, and  Scandinavian countries—to escape famine, political  and economic oppression, or in search for greater  opportunities in America.”

This detail shapes the idea because it lists European  countries that the people came from and  explains several reasons why they left for America.

Explanation:

The above is the best way to organize the sentences to express how the author develops a central idea in the passage.

This is correct because it stated a line from the excerpt that points to the central idea. It was from this line that the idea of the passage can be seen. Also, this line of detail contributes to shaping the idea. Therefore, the above arrangement is correct.

What is the universal message on the story called ''brothers'' by Bret Lott
malfutka [58]

Answer:Exploring three generations of the men in his family -- his father and his two uncles, his own two brothers, and his two sons -- Bret Lott spins a sweeping true saga of the ties that bind. With quiet grace and his trademark talent for finding powerful revelations in the most unlikely places, master novelist Lott delivers a bracingly personal and honest memoir that confronts the often inexpressible complexities of contemporary maleness. Fathers, Sons, and Brothers describes not only the ways men and boys relate to one another but also how their lives evolve over decades, endlessly imitative yet varied. In the end, these essays constitute a celebration of humanity, regardless of gender -- of joy and sorrow, of intimacy and distance, of lingering secrets and universal truths.

What is the first thing the reader should do to understand an unknown word?
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

The correct answer is: check the meaning.

Explanation:

When we see an unknown word in one text, the first thing we should do is check the meaning of the word in a dictionary. After that, we should memorize the word and try to use it in a certain context, in order to make sure we understood its meaning.

When we are predicting the meaning of the word, we can often make a mistake, because some words and their meanings can be quite unpredictable or illogical if someone doesn't know the etymology of the word or doesn't understand the scope of its use.

How is scotland faring under macbeth rule
Crank
Scotland is suffering under Macbeth's rule. He illegally became king by murdering the previous king, Duncan. Once he started his reign, he changed completely - he used to be an honorable warrior, but his ambition corrupted him, and he became a tyrant once he assumed the throne. During his reign, people in Scotland were afraid all the time about what their new king might do, and his own country was suffering. 
This is what Malcolm had to say about Macbeth's rule, which testifies to his terrible reign:
<em>"I think our country sinks beneath the yoke.
</em><em>It weeps, it bleeds, and each new day a gash
</em><em>Is added to her wounds."</em>
