When was this textbook published? exercpt 1 1911
Answer:Many students think of history as monotonous lectures, boring textbook readings, and a series of names and dates to memorize for a test. Students rarely learn about the concept of historiography, the study of how history has been written and how social change has influenced the way that people perceive historical events.
Analyzing textbooks from a historiographical stance allows students to see that history is more about interpretation, perspective, and bias than about rote memorization. By looking at how textbooks from different eras describe a certain event, such as the Mexican-American War, students learn about the choices that textbook authors make. For example, do the textbooks depict the U.S. as the aggressor, as an unwilling participant forced into a conflict by enemy antagonism, or something in between?
What is it?
In this best practice, students look at how high-school history textbooks from different eras have portrayed the same event. Here, we use the 1846 outbreak of the Mexican-American War as an example, but teachers can apply the approach to many other historical topics.
Example
1. Ask the class to explain what they know about the Mexican-American War (18461848). Show a map of the United States before the outbreak of war to prompt this discussion. (A before-and-after map can be accessed from Establishing Borders: The Expansion of the United States, 18461848)
2. Students read their textbook's section on the causes of the Mexican-American War. Discuss with the class the authors' interpretation of what caused this war and then compare it to their own perspectives.
3. Students look at old and new high-school history textbooks to see how the war is portrayed. Students can create a list or Venn diagram in order to identify the similarities and differences between these textbooks and their own textbook. Two excerpts are included below—for additional excerpts, ranging from 1849 to 1995, see the book History in the Making, by Kyle Ward (listed under Resources below).
A 1911 history textbook seems to blame Mexico for hostilities.
Excerpt #1: 1911
Henry William Elson and Cornelia Eliza MacMullan, The Story of Our Country (New York: Thompson Brown Company; Johnson, Blagen & Co., 1911), 132133.
Texas had now come into the Union, but there was still trouble with Mexico. That country seemed bent on a quarrel. President Polk did not desire it, he made an effort to settle the question by treaty; and this might have been done had Mexico been willing to yield certain points. "Texas has no right as an independent state to seek and receive admission into the United States," she said. And then she insisted that the dividing line should be the Nueces River, while Texas laid claim to the Rio Grande.
President Polk, fearing an attack, sent General Zachary Taylor to the disputed territory. And not many days passed before General Taylor received a letter from the Mexican general, Ampudia. "Your Government has not only insulted but has provoked the Mexican nation," he wrote, "and in this case, by orders of my Government, I require you to break up your camp and retire to the other bank of the Nueces River. If you insist upon remaining upon the soil, it will clearly result that arms, and arms alone, must decide the question."
What was General Taylor's answer? "The instruction under which I am acting will not permit me to go back from the position I now occupy. I regret the alternative which you offer, but, at the same time, wish it understood that I shall by no means avoid such an alternative, leaving the responsibility with those who rashly commence hostilities."
It was not long after this that war was declared. General Taylor did not wait for more soldiers to arrive, but marched on and defeated the Mexicans near the mouth of the Rio Grande, although they outnumbered him. The enemy fled across the river, but Taylor pursued them and captured Matamoros. He then moved up the Rio Grande to besiege Monterey, one of the most strongly fortified cities of Mexico.
In 1995, a history textbook shows disagreement and division over the war with Mexico.
Example #2: 1995
James W. Davidson and Michael B. Stoff, The American Nation (Englewood Cliffs, NJ: Prentice Hall, 1995), 366.
In January 1846, Polk ordered General Zachary Taylor to cross the Nueces River and set up posts along the Rio Grande. Polk knew that Mexico claimed this land and that the move might spark a war. In April 1846, Mexican troops crossed the Rio Grande and fought briefly with the Americans. Soldiers on both sides were killed.
President Polk claimed that Mexico had "shed American blood upon the American soil." At his urging, Congress declared war on Mexico. Americans were divided over the war. Many people in the South and West wanted more land and so were eager to fight. Northerners, however, opposed the war. They saw it as a southern plot to add slave states to the Union.

What was one of Alexandria's great attractions?
A : A big lighthouse
B : Massive hanging gardens
C : A colossal statue of Zeus
D : An underground city
Answer:
The correct answer is A. A big lighthouse.
Explanation:
The Pharos in Alexandria is widely regarded as one of the Seven Classic Wonders of the World. The tower bore the same name as the small island off the coast of Alexandria on which it was built. It was the first lighthouse ever built, between 297 and 283 BC, and served for almost 1500 years successively for the Greeks, Romans, Byzantines and Arabs. According to Arab and European travel accounts, the lighthouse was in service until about 1375 when a severe earthquake plunged the top half of the light installation into the sea. After that, the tower was not repaired. By the 15th century it had fallen into ruin. The remaining first floor was incorporated in the 16th century in a fort that still stands on Pharos today.

The music teacher said, "If you tighten the string too much, it will snap. And if you leave it too slack, it won't play." What's the message here for Siddhartha? What can he take away with this idea? (Hint think Buddhist concepts)

I believe the message for Siddhartha here is that there should be balance in everything he does.

What economic activity succeeded the MOST in New England because of the region’s environmental characteristics?
Answer: Fisheries and shipbuilding.
Explanation:
With the Puritan formation of the colony, New England came to a rapid economic expansion. According to a large number of historians, the area has experienced the greatest economic expansion. The Puritans produced a lot of food, clothing, even their furniture. The trade was very developed; they traded with Europe, India, and the native tribes. The area of New England was very rich. The industry that developed the most overtime was fishing. Since fishing is close to shipbuilding, shipbuilding has also developed. The Puritans exported huge quantities of goods to Europe, and over time, the ports of New England were flooded with ships because the region became one of the largest ports for ships of that time.
