Read the excerpt from Justice Curtis’s dissenting opinion, then answer the question that follows.

Slavery, being contrary to natural right, is created only by municipal law. This is not only plain in itself, and agreed by all writers on the subject, but is inferable from the Constitution, and has been explicitly declared by this court. The Constitution refers to slaves as “persons held to service in one State, under the laws thereof.” . . . .

. . . It was certainly understood by the Convention which framed the Constitution, and has been so understood ever since, that, under the power to regulate commerce, Congress could prohibit the importation of slaves; and the exercise of the power was restrained till 1808. A citizen of the United States owns slaves in Cuba, and brings them to the United States, where they are set free by the legislation of Congress. Does this legislation deprive him of his property without due process of law? If so, what becomes of the laws prohibiting the slave trade? If not, how can a similar regulation respecting a Territory violate the fifth amendment of the Constitution? . . . .

For these reasons, I am of opinion that so much of the several acts of Congress as prohibited slavery and involuntary servitude within that part of the Territory of Wisconsin . . . were constitutional and valid laws.

–Dissenting opinion on Dred Scott v. Sandford,
Justice Benjamin Curtis

Which evidence best supports Curtis’s opinion that Dred Scott should be free because he lived in a free territory? Check all that apply.

“The Constitution refers to slaves as ‘persons held to service in one State’”
“The Convention which framed the Constitution . . . has . . . the power to regulate commerce.”
“A citizen of the United States owns slaves in Cuba.”
“Does this legislation deprive him of his property without due process of law?”
“Acts of Congress as prohibited slavery and involuntary servitude within that part of the Territory of Wisconsin . . . were constitutional and valid laws.”

Read the passage from chapter 17 of The Prince.

Cesare Borgia was considered cruel; notwithstanding, his cruelty reconciled the Romagna, unified it, and restored it to peace and loyalty. And if this be rightly considered, he will be seen to have been much more merciful than the Florentine people, who, to avoid a reputation for cruelty, permitted Pistoia to be destroyed.

Some people argue composting should be mandatory in schools, that is helpful, reducing the amount of trash and landfills. Others, however, disagree saying that it's simply a waste of time.

Composting should be mandatory in school cafeteria, as it helps the environment, as it is a way of recycling rather than throwing it away, without any use. Don't you want to help the environment? Composting produces fertile soil fit for crops, trees l, flowers etc... In fact, some schools are already! Why doesn't your school also contribute?

On the other hand, some may argue that it's time-consuming; that's there's no point as there are other more convinient ways to recycle and this one of the hardest yet as it a lot of time! In addition, it also emits a horrible smell!

To conclude, it is best to help out the environment by contributing in composting as it helps the environment greatly enriching the soil with nutrients! It also makes the school look inviting, with flowers and trees showing that the school is caring for the environment and reduces trash in landfills.

I hope this helped, you may want to double check and also change some parts if you want.

School Segregation and Integration

The massive effort to desegregate public schools across the United States was a major goal of the Civil Rights Movement. Since the 1930s, lawyers from the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) had strategized to bring local lawsuits to court, arguing that separate was not equal and that every child, regardless of race, deserved a first-class education. These lawsuits were combined into the landmark Brown v. Board of Education Supreme Court case that outlawed segregation in schools in 1954. But the vast majority of segregated schools were not integrated until many years later. Many interviewees of the Civil Rights History Project recount a long, painful struggle that scarred many students, teachers, and parents.

Three years before Brown v. Board in November 1951, students in a civics class at the segregated black Adkin High School in Kinston, North Carolina, discussed what features an ideal school should have for a class assignment. When they realized that the local white high school indeed had everything they had imagined, the seeds were planted for a student-led protest. Without the assistance from any adults, these students confronted the local school board about the blatant inequality of local schools. When the board ignored their request for more funding, the students met by themselves to plan what to do next. In a group interview with these former students, John Dudley remembers, “So, that week, leading to Monday, we strategized. And we had everybody on board, 720 students. We told them not to tell your parents or your teacher what’s going on. And do you believe to this day, 2013, nobody has ever told me that an adult knew what was going on. Kids.” They decided on a coded phrase that was read during morning announcements. Every student in the school walked out, picked up placards that had been made in advance, and marched downtown to protest. The students refused to go back to school for a week, and eighteen months later, Adkin High School was renovated and given a brand-new gymnasium. It would remain segregated until 1970, however.

Desegregation was not always a battle in every community in the South. Lawrence Guyot, who later became a leader in the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, grew up in Pass Christian, a city on the Mississippi Gulf Coast that was influenced by the strong labor unions in the shipyard industry and the Catholic Church. He explains how the Catholic schools were desegregated there: “The Catholic Church in 1957 or '58 made a decision that they were going to desegregate the schools.  They did it this way.  The announcement was we have two programs.  We have excommunication and we have integration.  Make your choice by Friday.  Now there was violence going on in Louisiana.  Nothing happened on the Gulf Coast.  I learned firsthand that institutions can really have an impact on social policy.”

3. What archetypes does Irving use in "The Devil and Tom Walker"? Why do you think he
chose to use them?

Answers

Answer:

The archetype for the "The Devil and Tom Walker" would be that of Faust. Washington's story describes the archetypal "deal with the devil" that ends in tragedy.  

It is usually the case that the benefits associated with a Faustian bargain are dwarfed by what is required in return. In the story, Tom Walker makes a deal with Old Scratch: in return for access to the pirate's treasure, he will use his newfound wealth in the Devil's service.  

For his part, Old Scratch demands that Tom engage in what is known as "black traffic" or the slave trade. Tom refuses vehemently but agrees to the Devil's next suggestion: that he works as a money-lender. In due time, Tom becomes extremely wealthy. He revels in his new wealth and position in society. However, he begins to have second thoughts about his bargain with Old Scratch.  

In his old age, Tom begins to feel apprehensive about the next life. So, he begins attending church regularly, and he becomes a dogmatic believer in God. As we learn, Tom's panicked rituals of contrition do little to secure his salvation. The Devil comes for him, sealing the Faustian bargain. So, the archetype for "The Devil and Tom Walker" is the story of Faust, where a "deal with the devil" ends in tragedy.

B) it convinces people to accept evidence in support of a claim
C) it persuades people to accept the authors claim without proof
D) it tries to persuade by using reasoning that is not sound or logical

Answers

Answer:

D) it tries to persuade by using reasoning that is not sound or logical

Explanation:

Fallacy can be defined as a mistaken or false belief that are based on illogical arguments or reasoning.

However, a lot of people might actually think it to be true but it isn't. There are various types of fallacy and these include; black or white, non sequitur, ad hominem, bandwagon, appeal to authority, straw man, oversimplification/hasty generalization.

Validity refer to the soundness of conclusions that can be drawn from an argument. It is a term used to refer to how precise and accurate an information or reasoning describes, estimate, and establishes the truth.

Hence, a fallacious reasoning ruin the validity of an argument because it tries to persuade by using reasoning that is not sound or logical.

Which sentence in this story from Aesop's Fables best uses descriptive language to provide details about a character? The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse Now you must know that a Town Mouse once upon a time went on a visit to his cousin in the country. He was rough and ready, this cousin, but he loved his town friend and made him heartily welcome. Beans and bacon, cheese and bread, were all he had to offer, but he offered them freely. The Town Mouse rather turned up his long nose at this country fare, and said: "I cannot understand, Cousin, how you can put up with such poor food as this, but of course you cannot expect anything better in the country; come you with me and I will show you how to live. When you have been in town a week you will wonder how you could ever have stood a country life." No sooner said than done: the two mice set off for the town and arrived at the Town Mouse's residence late at night. "You will want some refreshment after our long journey," said the polite Town Mouse, and took his friend into the grand dining-room. There they found the remains of a fine feast, and soon the two mice were eating up jellies and cakes and all that was nice. Suddenly they heard growling and barking. "What is that?" said the Country Mouse. "It is only the dogs of the house," answered the other. "Only!" said the Country Mouse. "I do not like that music at my dinner." Just at that moment the door flew open, in came two huge mastiffs, and the two mice had to scamper down and run off. "Good-bye, Cousin," said the Country Mouse, "What! going so soon?" said the other. "Yes," he replied; "Better beans and bacon in peace than cakes and ale in fear."
