Why are the Salem Witch Trials considered a unique period of hysteria in American history?

timurjin [86]2 years ago

Evidence points to several factors that may have contributed to the mass hysteria: “An influx of refugees from King William's War with French colonists, a recent smallpox epidemic, the threat of attack from Native Americans, a growing rivalry with the neighboring seaport of Salem Town, and the simmering tensions. Despite what some people believe, the Salem Witch Trials are an important part of history because innocent people lost their lives, it could have been prevented, and something similar could happen again if people aren't careful. The trials occurred in colonial Massachusetts between 1692 and 1693.

When someone is speaking, there needs to be quotation marks. Also, <em>It's</em> needs an apostrophe because that makes it stand for "It is"
So the last answer is the right one.

Answer:

An analogy is a comparison between two things, particularly when the comparison is between two things that are quite different from each other. The main purpose of using an analogy is to help the reader understand the connection between them and therefore understand the meaning of the text better. In this case, an analogy could be used to enhance the language of the text and make it more vivid. For example:

"For six months I have been training like a beast and running daily and I barely made the track team. This year the competition to make the track team was tough!"
