Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. Read this excerpt from "We Wear the Mask" by Paul Laurence Dunbar and answer

the question that follows: We wear the mask that grins and lies, It hides our cheeks and shades our eyes, — This debt we pay to human guile; With torn and bleeding hearts we smile, And mouth with myriad subtleties. Why should the world be over-wise, In counting all our tears and sighs? Nay, let them only see us, while We wear the mask. We smile, but, O great Christ, our cries To thee from tortured souls arise. We sing, but oh the clay is vile Beneath our feet, and long the mile; But let the world dream otherwise, We wear the mask! What effect does the poet achieve by repeating the phrase, "We wear the mask" throughout the poem? Complete the sentences to answer the question.

In the three times that Dunbar uses the phrase "<em>We wear the mask</em>" (first to introduce the main idea and at the end of the next two stanzas), he used it to narrate and describe the common experiences that African-Americans share about their daily lives in a predominantly white society. These experiences are led by the feelings and thoughts that African-Americans have to hide by “<em>wearing the mask.</em>”

Explain how a map of the missions can be an example of the human-environment interaction.
Rom4ik [11]
Missions tended to be located near running rivers or larger streams. They also tended to choose areas with larger flat areas that would be good for farming. Farming was important as this would be one the main ways that the missionaries fed themselves and what they taught willing Native American converts. Missions appear during the time when we had to adapt and adjust to the environment around them. They didn't have the ability to adjust the environment to their needs.

I would go with the answers:

The effects of the Reformation were widespread.

Catholicism was still dominant in Europe.

There were many Calvinist centers in France.

<em>The answers that are incorrect:</em>

Because Norway at that time was mostly protestant.

England and Scotland had the most Muslim centers.

Also not true because there weren't many muslims (if there were any there at that time) living in England or Scotland.

valentinak56 [21]
President Wilson's policy of Moral Diplomacy concentrated on building democracies in other countries. More specifically, it stated that support would only be given to countries whose moral beliefs were in line with American beliefs. He used this to economically damage countries who he saw as a threat to the United States and hoped to increase the number of democratic nations in Latin America.

Which claim is not defensible?
Lostsunrise [7]
<span>"The world would be better off if political boundaries didn't exist" is an indefensible claim. The others can be proven or at least debated over because at some point in time all of them have true and false. For instance, the majority of congress and the President have been from the same political party. Also, the majority of congress and the President have NOT been from the same political party. Therefore, you can compare the difference between true and false. Political boundaries have always existed. As a result, you cannot comfortably compare it to anything else.</span>
