Answer:

   The mistress’s initial kindness had a greater effect because it was during that time that she taught Douglass to read, an event which had enormous impact on his life. He acknowledges this when he says, “Mistress, in teaching me the alphabet, had given me the inch, and no precaution could prevent me from taking the ell.”  People are fed and sustained not only by food, but also by ideas and understanding.  Douglass finds vindication for his belief that slavery is wrong. Douglass “was led to abhor and detest” his enslavers. Douglass comes to feel that learning to read had been a curse rather than a blessing.  

He thinks that if he were an animal, he wouldn’t have the ability to think and worry about his circumstances. Now that he can read, Douglass is tormented by his constant thoughts about his life as a slave and the impossibility of freedom. He regards slaveholders as “a band of successful robbers” and as “the meanest as well as the most wicked of men. Douglass’s purpose is to express his thoughts and feelings about being enslaved and about the effects of literacy. He relates three events that help him achieve his goal: his mistress teaching him to read, his further pursuit of instruction from “all the little white boys,” and the acquisition of certain reading materials that encouraged his own thoughts and feelings about slavery.

. What is the Supremacy Clause? How does this prevent conflicts between the federal government and the state governments?
Tcecarenko [31]
The Supremacy Clause (Article 6, Clause two) declares that the Constitution is the "supreme law of the land". It establishes that federal laws rule over state laws. This ensures that there will be no disagreement between the state and the national government over who has more authority. Federalism is a system of government where the power is shared between the state and national government, but this does not mean that they are equal. The national government will be "supreme".

What are 2 ideas that were stated in the Magna Carta that we still use in America?
statuscvo [17]

Recognized as one of the world´s first constitutions, the Magna Carta Libertatum, signed by King John of England in 1215, had major influence in the US Constitution, and of many other countries.

The article 39 of the Magna Carta states:

"No free man shall be seized or imprisoned, or stripped of his rights or possessions,  or outlawed or exiled, or deprived of his standing in any other way, nor will we proceed with force against him, or send others to do so, except by the lawful  judgement of his equals or by the law of the land"

From this excerpt we can find a very similar text to the Fifith Amendment to the US Constitution:

"No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a  presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval  forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall  any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor  shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived  of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be  taken for public use, without just compensation."

This idea of right to life, liberty and property, free from authoritarian attacks (without due process), derives from the Magna Carta.

The second main idea is more subjective: The US Constitution has a stance of untrust on the government and all centralized power, delegating it to the states or to the people. This also comes from the Magna Carta, the liberal constitution.

Other european constitutions, such as the french, that influenced most Latin American Countries, demonstrate a relation of trust and participation of the people in the government.

In other words, while Magna Carta is about protection from power, constitutions nowadays are about organization of power.
