Why does Catherine marry Edgar Linton instead of Heathcliff? What inference can readers make about Catherine's feelings for Heathcliff based on her reasons? Use evidence from the text to support your inference. ​

Answers

Answer 1

1. Catherine marries Edgar Linton because she wants to live in social prominence.

2. The inference is that Catherine loves wealth to Heathcliff's love.

What is social prominence?

Social prominence defines companionship and other human relationships.

For instance, Catherine wants to lead a wealthy life and become a respected member of society, which Edgar's wealth can provide her instead of living with Heathcliff in poverty.

Based on this reason, Catherine chooses to marry Edgar Linton because of Edgar's unpronounced adoration for Heathcliff's fierce love.

Thus, for Catherine, the love of wealth is more attractive than companionship.

Write an informative essay on the Great Chicago Fire.

Answers

Answer:

got 100%

Explanation:

The Chicago fire of 1871 was one of the most devastating fires in US history. Many people believe that the fire started in the barn of Partick and Catherine O’Leary on the southwest side of the city, and it burned for 36 hours leaving people's homes and businesses destroyed. Many lives were lost causing a huge mix of emotions of devastation and sadness. What was the cause of the fire to grow so big and spiral out of control as it did?  

The main things for a fire to start and sustain itself are fuel, oxygen and heat. Luckily for Chicago, they had all three of these ingredients. Since Chicago was built on a swamp, and other materials were too expensive, Chicago's infrastructure including its sidewalks and streets were made from wood. Because Chicago had experienced a long drought in their summer year the wood became dry, as a result it ended up serving as fuel for the fire. The surrounding area was full of houses that were close together, this helped the fire spread rapidly jumping from house to house.

At the time of the fire Chicago had strong winds coming from the southwest. Due to the sudden rise in heat the winds increased quickly. This could be seen in the novel The Great Fire when it states, “the stronger winds, the ones people remembered the best, were probably caused by rising consecutive heat” (Murphy 1). This made things so much worse for Chicago. Those winds carried out burning debris, which would later fall on top of the dry wood located in other areas. Those areas would soon also catch on fire. Making things worse than they already where firefighters at the time did not have the proper equipment to fight these fires and to top it all off, they were sent to the WRONG location. This whole entire catastrophe was the cause of the fire spreading quickly and uncontrollably.  

After multiple hours of burning a fire would eventually come to a stop since there is flammable left. That’s exactly what happened with the Chicago fire. Open areas in the north end of the city helped stop the fire because there was simply nothing left to burn in that area. Fire fighters ended up using explosives as a last-minute recourse to blow up abandoned buildings and homes in the area to help stop the spread. Finally, it started to rain which helped the firefighters put out the fire entirely.  

The after math of fire had left people devastated, heartbroken, and sad. Over 100,000 people were left without a home or a job. 300 people were estimated dead, 100,000 homes and 17,000 buildings including businesses were all destroyed. The damage fee came out to be 200 million dollars which would be around 4 billion dollars in today's money.  

In November of 1871, Chicagoans had rebuilt their city and elected a mayor who would enforce stricter building and fire rules. Architectes came together to start building and designing the first skyscrapers. This resulted in people moving to Chicago to help out with the building process. The population had grown to have 500,000 citizens and a decade later the city was back to normal with over a million people.

excerpt from "The Author to Her Book" by Anne Bradstreet

Thou ill-formed offspring of my feeble brain,
Who after birth didst by my side remain,
Till snatched from thence by friends, less wise than true,
Who thee abroad, exposed to public view,
Made thee in rags, halting to th’ press to trudge,
Where errors were not lessened (all may judge).

One-third of the population of the South is of the Negro race. No enterprise seeking the material, civil, or moral welfare of this section can disregard this element of our population and reach the highest success. I but convey to you, Mr. President and Directors, the sentiment of the masses of my race when I say that in no way have the value and manhood of the American Negro been more fittingly and generously recognized than by the managers of this magnificent Exposition at every stage of its progress. It is a recognition that will do more to cement the friendship of the two races than any occurrence since the dawn of our freedom.

What evidence does the author use to support the claim that no one can disregard Black citizens and be successful?

Black citizens make up a significant portion of the population.
Ensuring material and moral security for Black citizens will lead to success.
Recognizing the worth and power of Black citizens will bring people together.
The successful convention directors recognize the value of Black citizens.

Answers

Answer:Black citizens make up a significant portion of the population.

Explanation:

The proof the creator uses to help the case that nobody can ignore Black citizens and find success is: "33% of the number of inhabitants in the South is of the Negro race." This shows that Black citizens make up a critical piece of the populace.

The expression "Negro" generally alludes to a racial class that was regularly used to depict individuals of African plummet. It was a term utilized during the period when Booker T. Washington stated "Up from Servitude" (distributed in 1901), when racial wording was not quite the same as contemporary language.

The expression "Negro" was broadly utilized during that time however has since dropped out of normal utilization because of its relationship with past racial orders and its disparaging use in certain unique circumstances.
