Well, 
The answer would be the number 3
why? because in the beginning when Ferdinand de Lesseps, a french engineer who built the swiss canal decided to create one in the isthmus of Panama due to its ideal location and width to save a lot of time and money on travels, they brought over from France workers and machines, used to create the swiss canal previously, but due to the clay soil and the tropical conditions they quickly broke, forcing workers to do most of the work manually.
Also, due to the heat and the still water, mosquitoes carrying different diseases like malaria and dengue, swarmed the area biting and infecting the workers, ultimately killing most.
Making them give up the whole project.

04.04 Jefferson Brings Change!—411 File
Delvig [45]

Answer:

Jefferson Brings Change!—411 File

American voters wanted a non-Federalist president in the 1800 election, but Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr both won 73 electoral votes, so the House of Representatives took a vote and declared Jefferson the winner.

Explanation:

In "Somebody wanted, but so" sentence constructions, the different actors and their roles are clearly spelt out.  The elements are Character, Motivation/Goal, Conflict, and Resolution/Outcome.  

The character figure is the subject.  "American voters" is the character and the subject of the sentence.  Their goal is for "a non-Federalist president in the 1800 election."  This is their motivation for voting.

The conflict is followed by the conjunction, "but."  In this case, the conflict is that "but Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr both won 73 electoral votes."  

Resolution:  To resolve the conflict, "the House of Representatives took a vote and declared Jefferson the winner."  This is the resolution of the conflict.

The outcome is the declaration of Jefferson as the winner.

Thomas Jefferson was a Federalist president while Aaron Burr was the non-Federalist president that the majority of American voters wanted but could not overwhelmingly vote for, according to the electoral college system.  This caused a tie that was decided by the House of Representatives.

nexus9112 [7]

An engaging and convincing speech definitely needs a speaker that is <u>passionate</u> about the topic. In addition, language must be <u>clear and accessible</u>; in other words, the speaker should speak plainly, even though he or she has <u>expert knowledge</u> in the topic. Finally, <u>stories</u> (the speaker's own stories, if possible) and <u>jokes</u> (or at least a good dose of sense of humor) are also important.
