Why was a reward offered for Tubman's capture?
Read the excerpt from "Harriet Tubman A Life of Toil and
Triumph
By this time, the word of Harriet Tubman's bravery was
beginning to spread Many well-known people learned of
her mission and got on board as well. Writers Ralph Waldo
Emerson and Louisa May Alcott helped her, as did Susan
B Anthony Some even allowed her to use their homes as
stations. Meanwhile, Harriet's fame also made her a target,
and a large reward was offered for her capture and return
to Maryland

because she nursed abandoned enslaved persons
because she worked with Susan B. Anthony
The beginning of the Civil War in 1861 marked the end of
Harriet's Railroad work, but she did not retire. Instead, she
joined the fight that would soon set all of her people free. At
the request of Union leaders, she set out for South
Carolina. There she nursed slaves who had been left
behind when their owners fled Northern forces,

Which line in this excerpt from the great gatsby by f. scott fitzgerald contains a simile? about half way between west egg and new york the motor-road hastily joins the railroad and runs beside it for a quarter of a mile, so as to shrink away from a certain desolate area of land. this is a valley of ashes—a fantastic farm where ashes grow like wheat into ridges and hills and grotesque gardens where ashes take the forms of houses and chimneys and rising smoke and finally, with a transcendent effort, of men who move dimly and already crumbling through the powdery air. occasionally a line of grey cars crawls along an invisible track, gives out a ghastly creak and comes to rest, and immediately the ash-grey men swarm up with leaden spades and stir up an impenetrable cloud which screens their obscure operations from your sight.

Who was the last member of the stuart line whose death left britain without a clear successor? a. george i b. queen anne c. charles ii d. queen elizabeth

3one of the biggest impacts a building has on earth is the energy it uses. currently, most of the world’s energy comes from burning fossil fuels. these fuels are dirty and when they are burned they pollute the air and water. one way to burn fewer fossil fuels is to reduce the amount of electricity a building has to use. passive solar heating, which uses heat from the sun, reduces the amount of fossil fuel used to heat buildings. passive solar heating requires a south-facing wall made of glass. when sunlight shines through the wall, it is collected and used to warm the building. another way green buildings reduce their electricity use is to install other energy sources. for example, some green buildings use panels that turn energy from the sun into useable electricity. which is the best summary of paragraph 3? a) fossil fuels are dirty and pollute the air and water. most of the world's energy comes from these fuels. b) the biggest problem of buildings is that they use fuel that is dirty for heating. they need to do something to be more energy efficient. c) panels that turn energy from the sun into electricity and passive solar heating can stop the burning of fossil fuels which pollute air and water. d) since fossil fuels are dirty and pollute the air and water, other technologies that pollute less and produce energy have been developed like solar energy and green buildings.
