Explanation:FOUR GOALS OF PROGRESSIVISM
(Pages 306–309)
What did reformers want?
As the 1900s opened, reformers pushed
for a number of changes. Together their
efforts built the progressive movement.
The progressive movement had four major
goals: (1) to protect social welfare, (2) to
promote moral improvement, (3) to create
economic reform, and (4) to foster
efficiency.
Reformers tried to promote social
welfare by easing the problems of city life.
The YMCA built libraries and exercise
rooms. The Salvation Army fed poor
people in the cities and cared for children
in nurseries. Settlement houses helped
families. One reformer, Florence Kelley,
helped to win the passage of the Illinois
Factory Act in 1893. The law prohibited
child labor and limited women’s working
hours. The law became a model for other
states.
Reformers promoted moral reform by
working for prohibition—the banning of
alcoholic drinks. Many of these reformers,
called prohibitionists, were members of
the Woman’s Christian Temperance Union
(WCTU). The well-organized union
became the largest women’s group the
country had ever seen.
Reformers tried to make economic
changes by pointing out the great
inequality between the rich and the poor.

Explanation:
In June 1812, the United States declared war against Great Britain in reaction to three issues: the British economic blockade of France, the impressment of thousands of neutral American seamen into the British Royal Navy against their will, and the British support of hostile Indian tribes along the Great Lakes frontier. A faction of the U.S. Congress, made up mostly of Western and Southern congressmen, had been advocating the declaration of war for several years. These War Hawks, as they were known, hoped that war with Britain, which was preoccupied with its struggle against Napoleonic France, would result in U.S. territorial gains in Canada and British-protected Florida.
Did you know? After the British burned the White House during the War of 1812, President James Madison and his wife were unable to live there. Madison’s successor, James Monroe, moved back into the White House in 1817, while it was still being rebuilt.
In the months following the U.S. declaration of war, American forces launched a three-point invasion of Canada, all of which were repulsed. At sea, however, the United States was more successful, and the USS Constitution and other American frigates won a series of victories over British warships. In 1813, American forces won several key victories in the Great Lakes region, but Britain regained control of the sea and blockaded the Eastern seaboard.
In 1814, with the downfall of Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821), the British were able to allocate more military resources to the American war, and Washington, D.C., fell to the British in August. In Washington, British troops burned the White House, the Capitol and other buildings in retaliation for the earlier burning of government buildings in Canada by U.S. soldiers. However, the British soon retreated, and Fort McHenry in Baltimore harbor withstood a massive British bombardment and inspired Francis Scott Key (1779-1843) to pen the “Star-Spangled Banner.”
On September 11, 1814, the tide of the war turned when an American naval force under Thomas Macdonough (1783-1824) won a decisive victory at the Battle of Plattsburg in New York on Lake Champlain. A large British army under Sir George Prevost (1767-1816) was thus forced to abandon its invasion of the U.S. northeast and retreat to Canada.
Treaty of Ghent: December 24, 1814
The American victory on Lake Champlain led to the conclusion of U.S.-British peace negotiations in Belgium, and on December 24, 1814, the Treaty of Ghent was signed, ending the war. Although the treaty said nothing about two of the key issues that started the war–the rights of neutral U.S. vessels and the impressment of U.S. sailors–it did open up the Great Lakes region to American expansion and was hailed as a diplomatic victory in the United States.
News of the treaty took almost two months to cross the Atlantic, and British forces were not informed of the end of hostilities in time to end their drive against the mouth of the Mississippi River. On January 8, 1815, a large British army attacked New Orleans and was decimated by an inferior American force under General Andrew Jackson (1767-1845) in the most spectacular U.S. victory of the war. The American public heard of the Battle of New Orleans and the Treaty of Ghent at approximately the same time, fostering a greater sentiment of self-confidence and shared identity throughout the young republic.

Chapter 25: The US & World War II
1. After Pearl Harbor, what all did the US do to prepare for war?
a. How were women included in this?
2. What was the Battle of Britain, and how was its outcome important?
3. How did Hitler's invasion of the USSR turn out? Why was it relevant to the war effort?
4. Where did the US invade first & why?
5. What was D-Day? How was it conducted? What is its importance?
6. How did the US end the war with Japan? Why did they do it in this way?
7. What happened to Germany after its surrender?
a. What happened to the top Nazi officials?
8. What did the US do to Japan after their surrender & why?
Answer:
1. Less than five months after the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, the U.S. Army Air Force launched B-25 bombers from the deck of the USS Hornet (something that was supposed to be impossible) and bombed Tokyo. The raid was more a psychological victory than a tactical one, but psychology is important in winning a war
a. American women played important roles during World War II (including after Pearl Harbor), both at home and in uniform. ... As the men fought abroad, women on the Home Front worked in defense plants and volunteered for war-related organizations, in addition to managing their households.
2. The Battle of Britain was a turning point in World War II; if the RAF had not held off the Luftwaffe, Hitler would have likely moved forward with his Operation Sea Lion invasion of the British Isles. This would have been devastating to the British people and all efforts to stem Hitler's rise to power.
3. On June 22, 1941, Nazi Germany launched a surprise attack against the Soviet Union, its ally in the war against Poland. By the end of the year, German troops had advanced almost 1,000 miles to the outskirts of Moscow. Soon after the invasion, mobile killing units began the mass murder of Soviet Jews. However, Hitler had so far refused to fully mobilise the German economy and so weapons production was inadequate. Even in mid-1941 only 250 new tanks were being built each month, insufficient to properly equip the army on the eve of a major new campaign, or keep up with the inevitable mechanical and combat losses. As a result, Hitler's invasion of the Soviet Union failed.
4. Marshall Islands. The first planned offensive action by the United States in World War II came in January 1942 when the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise attacked Japanese bases in the Marshall Islands.
5. On 6 June 1944 – 'D-Day' – Allied forces launched the largest amphibious invasion in the history of warfare. Codenamed Operation 'Overlord', the Allied landings on the beaches of Normandy marked the start of a long and costly campaign to liberate north-west Europe from Nazi occupation.
6. When the Japanese attack the American fleet in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, on December 7, 1941, the United States enters World War II and goes to war with Japan; the war ends when the U.S. drops atomic bombs on Hiroshima (August 6) and Nagasaki (August 9) in Japan in 1945 and Japan surrenders unconditionally to the Allied.
7. Although at the time of the surrender virtually all of Germany was under Allied control, German forces still occupied western Netherlands, Denmark, much of Norway, as well as western and central Czechoslovakia.
a. Though members of the SS continued to stand in defendant's docks in the Federal Republic of Germany and elsewhere after the end of World War II—even up to the present day—the vast majority of SS and police were never called to account for their crimes.
8. After the defeat of Japan in World War II, the United States led the Allies in the occupation and rehabilitation of the Japanese state. Between 1945 and 1952, the U.S. occupying forces, led by General Douglas A. MacArthur, enacted widespread military, political, economic, and social reforms.

Answer:

np :)
Explanation:
She needs to wear beads if she leads the parade. He would want to whimper for that is the sentence pairs utilizes assonance and consonance. Thus, option (b) is correct.
What is assonance?In contrast to rhyme, which repeats both vowel and consonant sounds, assonance only repeats vowel sounds. The repeating of comparable vowel sounds in two or more words that are close to one another within a line of poetry or prose is known as assonance, and it is a literary device.
The repeat of the "ee" sound in "need," "beads," "leads," and "He" in this phrase pair is an illustration of assonance. A good example of consonance is the repeated "w" sound in the words "wear," "whimper," and "for." When words in a sentence or phrase are close to one another, assonance occurs where the vowel sounds are repeated.
As a result, the significance of the sentence pairs utilizes assonance and consonance are the aforementioned. Therefore, option (b) is correct.
