a symbol of the threat of economic depression

an allusion to soldiers who died for America's freedom

a simile comparing America to other countries

a metaphor for democracy's potentially grim future

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is "A symbol of the threat of economic depression"

Explanation:

Insolvent means unable to pay a debt and phantom means "denoting a transaction that has been invented for fraudulent purposes but that does not really exist." These words together both have something to do with the economy(money structure)

Answer 2

In the first paragraph of the speech, on page 2 Eisenhower uses the phrase "insolvent phantom as a symbol of the threat of economic depression. Thus, option A is correct.

On January 17, 1961, President Dwight Eisenhower addressed the American people on national television from the Oval Office of the White House in a speech that lasted less than 10 minutes. Those who anticipated that the World War II hero and the military commander would end his presidency with a sentimental, "old soldier" address a la Gen. Douglas MacArthur were taken aback by his stern warnings against the perils of the "military-industrial complex."

Eisenhower, who served two terms as president of the United States, had restrained the drive for higher defense spending amid the demand to produce more military hardware during the Cold War's arms race. However, the 1950s saw significant growth in both the American military forces and the defense sector.

List at least two ways Booker T. Washington demonstrated perseverance in his life.

Answers

Answer:

"Booker" (the only name he had as a slave) decided early on that the key to life was a good education.

Booker was nine when slavery ended. His stepfather insisted that he work in a salt mine to help support the family. But Booker wanted to go to school, so he figured out a way to do both. He worked at the mine from 4 to 9 am in the morning, then went to school, and returned to the mine to work from 2 in the afternoon to 9 at night. A 12 hour workday PLUS school!

When he was 12, he heard about Hampton Institute, where he could continue his education. Even though it was 500 miles away, he talked his mother into letting him go. Then, he ran out of money halfway there. So, he walked over 200 miles to get there.

What allowed homosapiens to migrate further than earlier people?​

Answers

Answer:

Scientists studying land masses and climate know that the Pleistocene Ice Age created a land bridge that connected Asia and North America (Alaska) over 13,000 years ago. A widely accepted migration theory is that people crossed this land bridge and eventually migrated into North and South America.

How were our ancestors able to achieve this feat, and why did they make the decision to leave their homes? The development of language around 50,000 years ago allowed people to make plans, solve problems, and organize effectively. We can’t be sure of the exact reasons humans first migrated off of the African continent, but it was likely correlated with a depletion of resources (like food) in their regions and competition for those resources. Once humans were able to communicate these concerns and make plans, they could assess together whether the pressures in their current home outweighed the risk of leaving to find a new one.

Explanation:

what aspects of German American culture did other Americans find threatening?
What forms did anti-German hostility take?

Answers

Answer:

For German Americans, the 20th century was a time of growth and consolidation; their numbers increased, their finances became more stable, and Americans of German heritage rose to positions of great power and distinction. For German American culture, however, the new century was a time of severe setbacks--and a devastating blow from which it has never fully recovered.

The coming of World War I brought with it a backlash against German culture in the United States. When the U.S. declared war on Germany in 1917, anti-German sentiment rose across the nation, and German American institutions came under attack. Some discrimination was hateful, but cosmetic: The names of schools, foods, streets, and towns, were often changed, and music written by Wagner and Mendelssohn was removed from concert programs and even weddings. Physical attacks, though rare, were more violent: German American businesses and homes were vandalized, and German Americans accused of being "pro-German" were tarred and feathered, and, in at least once instance, lynched.

Ten Little Hyphens

The most pervasive damage was done, however, to German language and education. German-language newspapers were either run out of business or chose to quietly close their doors. German-language books were burned, and Americans who spoke German were threatened with violence or boycotts. German-language classes, until then a common part of the public-school curriculum, were discontinued and, in many areas, outlawed entirely. None of these institutions ever fully recovered, and the centuries-old tradition of German language and literature in the United States was pushed to the margins of national life, and in many places effectively ended.

President Woodrow Wilson spoke disapprovingly of "hyphenated Americans" whose loyalty he claimed was divided. One government official warned that "Every citizen must declare himself American--or traitor." Many German Americans struggled with their feelings, realizing that sympathy for their homeland appeared to conflict with loyalty to the U.S.

Some German Americans reacted by overtly defending their loyalty to the United States. Others changed the names of their businesses, and sometimes even their own names, in an attempt to conceal German ties and to disappear into mainstream America. Ironically, and contrary to Wilson's opinion about divided loyalties, thousands of German Americans fought to defend America in World War I, led by German American John J. Pershing, whose family had long before changed their name from Pfoerschin.

General John Pershing with the 2nd Division, Germany, 1919

Fifteen years later, the shadows of a new war brought another surge in immigration. When Germany's Nazi party came to power in 1933, it triggered a significant exodus of artists, scholars and scientists, as Germans and other Europeans fled the coming storm. Most eminent among this group was a pacifist Jewish scientist named Albert Einstein.

Anti-German feelings arose again during World War II, but they were not as powerful as they had been during the first World War. The loyalty of German Americans was not questioned as virulently. Dwight Eisenhower, a descendant of the Pennsylvania Dutch and future president of the United States, commanded U.S. troops in Europe. Two other German Americans, Admiral Chester Nimitz of the United States Navy and General Carl Spaatz of the Army Air Corps, were by Eisenhower's side and played key roles in the struggle against Nazi Germany.

General Dwight D. Eisenhower

World War II, industrial expansion, and Americanization efforts reinforced the cultural assimilation of many German Americans. After the war, one more surge of German immigrants arrived in the United States, as survivors of the conflict sought to escape its grim aftermath. These new arrivals were extremely diverse in their political viewpoints, their financial status, and their religious beliefs, and settled throughout the U.S.

German immigration to the United States continues to this day, though at a slower pace than in the past, carrying on a tradition of cultural enrichment over 400 years old—a tradition that has helped shape much of what we today consider to be quintessentially American.

If its right may I please have brainliest?

Answer:

Hunter gatherers are groups of people who move from place to place in search of food and other needed natural resources. They rely heavily on the environment for everything they need to survive, including food, shelter, clothing, tools, and even medicines. For instance, these groups will use every part of a hunted animal to survive: meat is used for food, skin for clothing and shelter, and other remains for tools and weapons. These groups will also gather any nuts, berries, and fruits they can find. The Paleo-Indians were early hunter-gatherers in North America. Most early human groups were until they began to domesticate plants and animals.
