Answer:
3. They argue that different forms of music, such as jazz and bomba, came out of different types of hardship.
Explanation:
The book "Sugar Changed the World" by Marc Aronson and Marina Budhos describes how the favorite spice of sugar came to be. Tracing the history of sugar from the colonial times, the book delves into the form of slavery in these plantations and how it affects slaves the same way slavery overtook the cotton plantation.
In the given passage, the authors argue how different forms of music came to be a form of expression through which these slaves found entertainment and a voice. Despite their owners' claim that the slaves were "just cogs in machinery built to produce", the slaves invent ways to express their dissent, their anger, frustrations, and their dreams, homesickness, etc. Thus, music became a form of a voice in their 'restricted' environment. And the invention of such music, be it "Jazz in Louisiana, the Bomba in Puerto Rico and Maculelê in Brazil", all came out of the hardships that the people faced in their environments.
Thus, the correct answer is option 3.

Moreover, the use of this question over and over creates the momentum as this question shows the strength of Truth argument. Thus, option B is correct.

A security expert claims that exactly 19% of all homeowners have a home security alarm. State Upper H 0 and Upper H Subscript a in words and in symbols. Then determine whether the hypothesis test for this claim is left-tailed, right-tailed, or two-tailed. Explain your reasoning.
Answer: Null hypothesis : [tex]H_0: p=0.19[/tex]
Alternative hypothesis : [tex]H_a: p\neq0.19[/tex]
The test is two-tailed test.

Read this excerpt from "Choreographers of Matter, Life, and Intelligence."With these three fundamental discoveries, triggered by the quantum revolution, the DNA revolution, and the computer revolution, the basic laws of matter, life, and computation were, in the main, finally solved.What is the author’s purpose for including this statement?
Answer:
to provide evidence that the age of discovery is concluding
Explanation:
The author’s purpose for including this statement of the above excerpts from Choreographers of Matter, Life, and Intelligence is to provide evidence that the age of discovery is concluding.
Choreographers of Matter, Life, and Intelligence was written by a physicist and author Michio Kaku who critically examines the great scientific revolutions that have dramatically remodeled the twentieth century–the quantum mechanics, biogenetics, and artificial intelligence–and shows how they will metamorphose and alter science and the way humans live.
What actually makes Michio Kaku’s vision of the science of the future so captivating and so distinct from just mere forecasts of most thinkers is that it is derived from a groundbreaking research taking place in labs today, as well as the harmony or the like-mindedness of over 150 of Kaku’s scientific colleagues. Science, for all its magnificent change, progressed slowly; we can correctively predict, asserts Kaku, what exactly the direction of science will be in the future based on the tracks that are being forged in the present.
Answer:
(B) to provide evidence that the age of discovery is concluding
Explanation:
With these three fundamental discoveries, triggered by the quantum revolution, the DNA revolution, and the computer revolution, the basic laws of matter, life, and computation were, in the main, finally solved.

During the party for Billy and Valencia’s eighteenth wedding anniversary, Billy is greatly upset by the barbershop quartet (219-30; 172-80 in the shorter edition). Summarize what happens to him in this moment and why. What do you think Vonnegut is saying about the nature of memory in this section of the book (and indeed throughout the book)?
Answer:
The barbershop quartet reminds Billy of the German officers when they saw the destruction caused by the bombing of Dresden. Billy breaks down and realizes he has some "big secret" inside. Vonnegut´s ideas about the nature of memory appear in Billy´s suppressing his emotion during the war, to end up having his later civilian life shape by what happened there.
Explanation:
Traumatized by the horrors of war, Billy´s memory constantly takes him into vivid flashbacks, showing that he hasn´t truly processed what he has gone through.

the pearl book how does the town react to Kino's Good Fortune
Answer:
The whole town reacted with such fervor which the author states was like a "nerve . . . pulsing and vibrating with the news".
Explanation:
John Steinbeck's "The Pearl" revolves around the character Kino, a pearl diver who discovered a pearl and thus, began his change of fortune from being super poor to becoming rich. The story is more of a parable that deals with the greed of man and the evils in society that only leads to more discrimination.
Kino and his wife Juana were living in dire poverty. Once when a scorpion stung their baby Coyotito, the doctor refused to treat him because they had no money to pay him for his services. In frustration, Kino went diving for oysters while his wife applied seaweed on their son's swollen shoulder. Kino found a huge pearl which he dubbed "the Pearl of the World". From then on, numerous misfortunes happened to them, thieves tried to break in and steal their pearl, traders tried to cheat them out of it. The whole neighborhood was abuzz with the enormous discovery, the whole town was "pulsing and vibrating with the news", everyone trying to associate themselves with Kino, including the doctor who refused to treat them earlier.

In "Fireside Chat #19," which other country does Roosevelt say must also be
defeated in order for the American way of life to be safe?
A. China
B. Germany
C. Norway
D. Russia
Answer:
B. Germany.
Explanation:
The "Fireside Chats" as they are termed, are the numerous 'declarations/ announcements' of then-president Franklin D. Roosevelt broadcasted all over the nation. This broadcast contains the president addressing the American people's fears and concerns regarding their national security during the days leading up to the Second World War.
"Fireside Chat #19" is a declaration of war against Japan after the attack on the American soil. This declaration of war against Japan has been a grave act of breaking peace terms and thus, now officially a war. But Roosevelt continued to state that with this war against Japan, it must be remembered that Germany has been behind all these attacks for it has promised Japan a share of the spoils of war. "Germany has been telling Japan that if Japan did not attack the United States, Japan would not share in dividing the spoils with Germany when peace came. She was promised by Germany that if she came in she would receive the complete and perpetual control of the whole of the Pacific area -- and that means not only the Ear East, but also all of the Islands in the Pacific, and also a stranglehold on the west coast of North, Central and South America", he commented. This is why along with the need to attack Japan, America also needs to defeat Germany for life to be safe in American soil.
