Paragraph: "It may seem surprising that no Confederate sympathizers took action against Van Lew, given her strong and public vie

ws on secession and slavery. Surely there were suspicions, especially among her upper-crust neighbors, but the matter never went beyond those suspicions. Historians have suggested that the secessionists were victims of their own cultural bias, believing that no aristocratic person, and certainly not a lady, would ever consider taking part in anything as impolite as spying. A true lady managed her servants, prepared parties and gatherings, and blindly supported her husband. Such attitudes worked in Van Lew's favor, diverting suspicion from her."
Based on your reading beyond this paragraph, what is an overall central idea that the author develops in The Dark Game?

A. Van Lew’s actions of espionage were possible only because she was a woman.
B. Van Lew’s deviant behavior was not the norm for aristocratic people.
C. Van Lew’s heroism lies in that she openly spoke about her views of secession and slavery.
D. Van Lew’s actions revolutionized the expectation and role of women in society.

When developing the paragraphs in an essay, why should the writer include information about sources for all quoted information?
devlian [24]
When developing the paragraphs in an essay, the writer should include the information about the sources for all quoted information to avoid plagiarism. Some of the information you used in your essay to support your topic are just borrowed ideas and you are just using them as basis and reference and does not originally come from you. Therefore, to avoid plagiarism, quoting them is very essential to give credit to the person who came up with that idea.

In Stalin's opinion, why did the USSR decide to go to war with Germany?​
gulaghasi [49]

The correct answer is A) because people of the world -including dissenters in Germany- had approved their cause.

<em>In Stalin's opinion, the USSR decide to go to war with Germany because people of the world -including dissenters in Germany- had approved their cause. </em>

Joseph Stalin was a dictator. The people that surround him, his advisors, often said yes to everything he said. So in Stalin's mind, the Soviet Union had to wage war against Germany because he thought he had total support from the people in Russia; even dissenters in Germany. So he considered that he was fighting the tyrant Hitler and his expansionist ideas that included an invasion to the USSR territory as he did.  

The other options of the question were b) because Britain would be fighting with the Soviets, c) because Soviet troops had received threats from German ships, and d) because Hitler took Polish territory when he broke the nonaggression pact.
