In Act I of The Crucible, how does Mrs. Putnam justify sending Ruth to Tituba? Mrs. Putnam didn't think a little foolish "conjuring" would do any harm. Mrs. Putnam feels she deserves to know why she has had to endure the deaths of seven children. Tituba promised to revive Mrs. Putnam's dead children. Mrs. Putnam thought it might help Ruth, who seemed to be ailing.

Answer:

Mrs. Putnam feels she deserves to know why she has had to endure the deaths of seven children.

Explanation:

The Crucible is a play writter by Arthur Miller. The play is based on Salem Witchcraft trials of 1692-93.

In Act 1, Mr and Mrs Putnam visits Reverend Parris's house to know the condition of Parris's daughter, Beatty, who is lying listless and rumors of her being bewitched are spread.

Mrs Putnam, in her discussion with Reverend Parris explained to him that he sent her daughter, Ruth to Tituba to communicate with the dead spirits of her seven children as Tituba was able to communicate with the dead spirits. So, Mrs Putnam said that she sent Ruth to know that why she suffered the death of her seven children, as she thought that someone performed some witchcraft on her children.

So, the correct answer is the second option.

Read the passage from Animal Farm. That evening Squealer explained privately to the other animals that Napoleon had never in reality been opposed to the windmill. On the contrary, it was he who had advocated it in the beginning, and the plan which Snowball had drawn on the floor of the incubator shed had actually been stolen from among Napoleon's papers. The windmill was, in fact, Napoleon's own creation. Why, then, asked somebody, had he spoken so strongly against it? Here Squealer looked very sly. That, he said, was Comrade Napoleon's cunning. He had seemed to oppose the windmill, simply as a maneuver to get rid of Snowball, who was a dangerous character and a bad influence. Now that Snowball was out of the way, the plan could go forward without his interference. This, said Squealer, was something called tactics. He repeated a number of times, "Tactics, comrades, tactics!" skipping round and whisking his tail with a merry laugh. The animals were not certain what the word meant, but Squealer spoke so persuasively, and the three dogs who happened to be with him growled so threateningly, that they accepted his explanation without further questions. How does Orwell use Squealer's explanation to support his purpose? Squealer's explanation of Napoleon's tactics is representative of a dictator who reverses policies and lies about his reasons. Squealer's explanation of Napoleon's tactics is meant to shed light on why it is often necessary for dictators to lie to their people. Squealer's explanation of Napoleon's tactics demonstrates a connection between Napoleon and Squealer that was not previously clear. Squealer's explanation of Napoleon's tactics reveals a connection with Stalin's intent to do what was right for his people.

“La Belle Dame sans Merci: A Ballad” by John Keats

O, what can ail thee, knight-at-arms, Alone and palely loitering? The sedge has withered from the lake, And no birds sing. O what can ail thee, knight-at-arms, So haggard and so woe-begone? The squirrel’s granary is full, And the harvest’s done. I see a lily on thy brow, With anguish moist and fever-dew, And on thy cheeks a fading rose Fast withereth too. I met a lady in the meads Full beautiful—a faery’s child, Her hair was long, her foot was light, And her eyes were wild. I made a garland for her head, And bracelets too, and fragrant zone; She looked at me as she did love, And made sweet moan. I set her on my pacing steed, And nothing else saw all day long, For sidelong would she bend, and sing A faery’s song. She found me roots of relish sweet, And honey wild, and manna-dew, And sure in language strange she said— “I love thee true.” She took me to her elfin grot, And there she wept and sighed full sore, And there I shut her wild wild eyes With kisses four. And there she lullèd me asleep, And there I dreamed—Ah! woe betide!— The latest dream I ever dreamt On the cold hill side. I saw pale kings and princes too, Pale warriors, death-pale were they all; They cried—“La Belle Dame sans Merci Thee hath in thrall!” I saw their starved lips in the gloam, With horrid warning gapèd wide, And I awoke and found me here, On the cold hill’s side. And this is why I sojourn here, Alone and palely loitering, Though the sedge is withered from the lake, And no birds sing.

thumb and took another look at it against the light.
Meanwhile he was taking off his cartridge-studded belt
with the pistol holster suspended from it. He put it on a
hook in the wardrobe and hung his cap above it. Then
he turned full around toward me and, loosening his tie,

Why did Zimmermann choose to send the message
through the U.S. State Department?
On January 16, 1917, in a clear attempt to convince
the Mexican government to help Germany in the war,
Arthur Zimmermann, the German foreign secretary
sent a telegram to Count von Bemstorff, the German
ambassador in Washington. The foreign secretary
wanted to be certain that this message reached von
Bemstorff, so he made arrangements for it to be
carried aboard a U-boat to Sweden and from there to
Washington through diplomatic channels
As luck would have it, the departure of the sub was
delayed. Impatient, Zimmermann turned to his second
option sending the message to his ambassador
through the US State Department. Although Wilson
considered the United States to be neutral, he allowed
messages to be sent to von Bernstorff via the State
Department as a courtesy. The telegram sent,
Zimmermann waited for a reply. What Zimmermann
O The German U-boat was grounded because it
needed repairs
The Americans planned to enter the war and side
with the Germans
O The content of the message was extraordinarily
important
O The safest way of transmitting messages was by
telegram

The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (known to Westerners as North Korea) was founded in 1945 after World War II. Their neighbor at the end of the Korean Peninsula, South Korea or the Republic of Korea, was established at the same time. These two nations have an unusual history. For one thing, they have technically been at war since 1950. Though they were born at the same time, these two countries had different parents. The United States supported South Korea in its infancy. China and the Soviet Union supported North Korea. The U.S. and the Soviet Union may have ended World War II as allies, but they had different ways of organizing their societies. The U.S. is a capitalist country. That means that some people are rich and some people are poor. Resources are distributed unevenly. Business are owned by private entities. The Soviet Union claimed to have a communist system. That means that everybody supposedly gets the same. Resources are distributedThe two Koreas went to war in 1950. The North attacked and took over much of South Korea. But the United States jumped in and pushed the North Koreans back to the Chinese border. Then China got involved and pushed the Americans and South Koreans back. The nations agreed to a ceasefire. Millions of people were dead and the living returned to their original boundaries. The war never officially ended, though combat has ceased for the most part. After the war, South Korea was one of the poorest nations in the world. In 1960 the average citizen made $79 a year. The country did not have a lot of natural resources to sell, but they did have many hardworking people. During the 1960s, the country began manufacturing labor-intensive products. Selling these products to people in other nations made South Korea rich. They now have one of the largest and most thriving economies in the world. As of 2012, the average South Korean citizen makes around $32,020 a year. The economy of North Korea is dramatically different. more evenly. Business are owned in "common" by the government. These two superpower nations raised
