Answer:

Foreshadowing

Explanation:

This is most likely to be an example of foreshadowing. In this passage, Miss Ophelia is worried about the possibility of Topsy being sold if her owner were to die. This is why she wants to own her as soon as possible and thus ensure her well-being. This is an example of foreshadowing because the owner will indeed die shortly, and the scenario will take place, except that it will be other slaves who are sold, and not Topsy.

It is dramatic tension, as Miss Ophelia is being very dramatic in what she is talking about, and there is a dramatic subject that she is talking about. (Death) Hope I could help!

How did the domestication of plants and animals affect agrarian societies? Write your answer in a paragraph of at least 125 word
oksano4ka [1.4K]

This will make you pass!

Answer:1 They could rest assured that their food supply was more stable and constant if they planted consistently. To do this they learned to observe the stars and seasons to be ready for planting and harvesting. They fought over and secured land that was arable and then protected it with military might to protect their food supply. To that end.....

2 the early farmers became specialized in their labor and became potters, tanners, government leaders, accountants (well, they could count anyway!) and the myriad of other jobs that a modern community needed to survive. They took time to learn their tasks (education) and practiced those in communities governed by those whom they empowered. By the time you get to ancient Egypt, the range of jobs was pretty diverse for this largest and most successful agrarian society.

3 Early farmers also began to think seriously about continuity and a lasting society, so they worked hard on laws and taught their children respect for their society. Then they thought about the need for more land and growing the size of their kingdoms to ensure its permanence.

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

The costs of passing a bill that prohibits child labor is precisely that all the labor that children could have provided for the economy is forgone. So in pure economic terms, there is a loss of value, a sunk cost.

However, the benefit is both economic, and social. The economic benefit is that children will instead go to school, and educate themselves to become more productive workers in the future. And the social benefit is a fairer society, and wealthier too.
