Question 7 of 10
Read this excerpt from a campaign speech:
My opponent in this race for the governor's office claims
that I am corrupt. He dares to suggest that I accepted
favors from business owners in exchange for putting them
in contact with state legislators who lowered business
taxes. This is an absurd claim. Moreover, I find it ironic that
he, of all people, wants to point fingers and talk about
corruption. Isn't it interesting that he accepts so many
campaign donations from the oil industry and is single-
handedly responsible for sponsoring state laws that ease
environmental regulations? Dear friends, remember on
Election Day who the real honest politician is in this race,
It's certainly not the man on the other side of the aisle
trying to distract us from his own bad character.
Which statement best describes the speaker's point of view?
Incomplete question: Here are the options:
A. Citizens are too concerned about corruption in politics
B.The speaker's opponent is a decent person who has gotten in over his head.
C. The speaker's is innocent of all accusation
D. Voters should be concerned about the character of the speaker's opponent
Answer:
D. Voters should be concerned about the character of the speaker's opponent
Explanation:
From the excerpt of the campaign speech, the speaker who is not named directs the thoughts of his listeners to what he calls, the "bad character" of his opponent.
He makes his point of view more evident when he said,
"Dear friends, remember on Election Day who the real honest politician is in this race, It's certainly not the man on the other side of the aisle trying to distract us from his own bad character."

a) Explain ONE specific political development that resulted from the conditions created by the religious policies described in
the passage.
b) Explain ONE specific change to Muslim-Hindu relations that resulted from the conditions created by the religious policies
described in the passage.
c) Explain ONE specific consequence of the policies described in the passage on religious minorities.
Answer:
A) One specific political development that resulted from the conditions created by the religious policies described in the passage is how Akbar's elimination of the jizya ultimately strengthened the empire. Akbar allowed a series of measures, one of which included abolishing the jizya, to recruit the Hindu majority as well as others with the goal of unifying and expanding the empire. He gave the Rajputs ranks and married their princesses, allowing them to conduct Hindu rites. This alliance strengthened the empire greatly by allowing two major religious groups to live in harmony.
B) One specific change to Muslim-Hindu relations that resulted from the conditions created by the religious policies described in the passage was the tolerance of Hinduism in the empire. While he defeated the Rajputs and was perfectly able to use his troops to slaughter all of them, he instead gave them mercy and rank in the empire. This agreement to ally with the Rajputs helped the empire strengthen itself and allow both Muslims and Hindus to feel included and united under one kingdom.
C) One specific consequence of the policies described in the passage on religious minorities would be the oppressive jizya, which was a tax brought upon non-Muslims. The tax exempted from those who were not able to pay, such as the poor, elderly, women, children, the handicapped, the ill, the insane, monks, hermits, slaves, and foreigners who were only residing temporarily in Muslim lands, meaning that only sane, adult, male citizens paid the tax. The tax created inequality for specifically the poor non-Muslims, separating Muslims and non-Muslims as well as the rich from the poor.
Explanation:
Paraphrased version :)
The specific political development that resulted from the conditions created by the religious policies was the abolition of Jiziyah by Akbar. Akbar was the first Mughal Emperor to abolish the Jizyah. Akbar believed that inequality was taking place between the Hindus and the Muslims. Hence after the abolition of Jiziyah, the Hindus got readily attracted to Akbar's policy.
After the abolition of Jiziyah, Hindu-Muslim relations improved tenfold. The Hindus were recruited into the Mughal army. The Mariage alliance was also conducted between the Muslim ruler Akbar and Rajput Hindu princess Jodha bai. All these led to the harmonious life of both the Hindus and Muslims.
The policy Jiziyah which was prevalent from before the time of Akbar had many consequences. The poor people of the Indian state were not able to pay up for taxes and were reduced to the condition of the slaves.
What is Jizyah?Jizyah was a tax that was being paid by the Hindus. This tax was being implemented in India by the ruler Qutub-ud-din Aibak. Later on, during Mughal ruler Akbar's reign the tax was abolished. This Jiziyah tax was mainly paid for the protection of the Hindus from the hands of the enemies.

Why is Thomas Jefferson's view on slavery considered controversial
Well, Thomas Jefferson was the person who wrote "all men are created equal" yet enslaved hundreds of people over his life. He also publically said that White people are superior to Black people. So I think it's safe to say his view on slavery would get him publically crucified today. Granted he did attempt to end any importation of enslaved Africans at one point in his life, under his watch, the act of slavery did not go down, rather went up. He also profited in many ways through slavery.

Explanation:
My Son took the quiz and got it right
The statement that correctly recounts the wars of King William, King George, and Queen Anne's would be:
D). Many British colonists/ settlers that survived attacks along the frontier were captured by the Natives and taken into captivity.
E). Many attacks led to the massacre of the colonists along the frontier.
F). Attacks were mostly small-scale attacks on frontier settlements.
G). The European nations often neglected their colonies and allowed their colonies to use their very meager resources to fight the war and defend themselves.
The above statements most adequately state the facts about the wars that have been carried out by the various kings(William, George, and Queen Anne). The wars are associated with the series of wars with the common title "Indian and French Wars" that took place between France and Britain from the late 17th century to the late 18th century(around 75 years).The natives imprisoned the various colonists who underwent strikes down the borderline and how these attacks on tiny settlements led to the bloodshed and denial of resources to the colonies by the nations of Europe, causing the battle to extend.
Thus, options D, E, F, and G are the correct answers.
