Thoreau’s general opinion of government relate to his imprisonment, as described in "Civil Disobedience" as:

A) He believed that government was corrupt and that he was justified in not paying his taxes despite being put in prison.

Henry David Thoreau's argument in the “Civil Disobedience” was that the citizens of a nation need to disobey the laws implemented by the state if the laws are unjust. He speaks about his experience when he protested against slavery and the Mexican War by refusing to pay taxes. He adds that there are two types of laws, one is made by God and the other by the people. The laws made by God is about humanity and is higher than the laws made by men. He adds that if the laws made by men prove to be unjust and are against humanity then the people should have the right to disobey them.

I would say that Thoreau's general opinion of government relates to his imprisonment in such a way that A) He believed that government was corrupt and that he was justified in not paying his taxes despite being put in prison.
He felt proud of himself for sticking to his ideals, regardless of the price.

What is the best description of the weather in Moingona, Iowa, during the days leading up to the train crash that occurred there
kap26 [50]

Answer:

The best description of the weather in Moingona, Iowa before the train crash is Option C: There was very heavy rain, which caused Honey Creek to rise and flood.

Explanation:

This train accident occurred on the afternoon of July 6, 1881. There had been heavy thunderstorms that caused flash flooding and this washed out the timbers of the railway trestle that crossed Honey Creek. A locomotive was sent from Moingona to check track conditions. It fell into Honey Creek with a crew of four men on board.  

A young adolescent of about 16 years old Kate Shelley heard the crash and also thought of a passenger train that would be heading the same route.  She found two survivors and went to get help, traveling a long distance to sound the alarm and risking her own safety by crossing another bridge on her hands and knees.  She is considered a heroine and has a bridge named after her.
