Answers

Answer 1

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The three individuals that I picked, who shaped Nevada history between 1900 and 1945 were Patrick McCarran and James G. Scrugham.

What makes them significant to Nevada is the following.

In the case of James G. Scrugham, he was the governor of the state of Nevada from 1923 to 1927 and supported the construction of the Colorado River dam that would benefit the area of Las Vegas and its surroundings. He improved the highway system of the state and also supported the creation of a park administration.

Patrick McCarran was a prominent politician and Senator that promoted the idea of constructing a major airport in Las Vegas. He also contributed to bringing different US military bases to the state.

Write a letter to a friend as if you were a colonial woman whose husband was fighting in the revoulution , tell about some hardships you would face and extra work you have to do each day

Answers

Dear friend.

It is with regret that I write this letter to you since it is impossible to keep the spirits and happiness in such an uncertain environment to which we live now, since the revolt started. I fear that the revolt has bad results and I fear for the lives of men who are being risked at that moment, but I understand the cause and the reasons that led them to do so.

My husband joined the army about three months ago and in spite of the anguish and the fear that he will come back multilateral, or not at all, I feel overwhelmed with the activities that I am now obliged to take responsibility for. I need to take care of domestic affairs, but I also need to take responsibility for the plantations alone. I am used to hard work, but I miss having someone to share the tasks that seem to be much bigger than me.

This stressful moment has left me very discouraged and that is why I am writing this letter, as I would like to talk to someone and I believe that I can find in you good ears for my complaints.

I hope that everything ends well and that this dark moment is removed from our lives, with the victory on our side.

Hope to see you soon.

The Catholic Church supported the ideas of Ancient Greece and therefore taught their theories to the people of Europe.  

Explanation:

Ancient Greece was a center for the creation of philosophy, mathematics, astronomy, medicine and literature.

However, this diffusion of Greek concepts and sciences was carried out mainly by the support of the Catholic Church, which dominated the whole of Europe and disseminated these concepts throughout the continent.
