50 points and brainliest to best and correct answer letter to her husband abigail adams i feel very differently at the approach of spring to what i did a month ago. we knew not then whether we could plant or sow with safety, whether we could reap the fruits of our own industry, whether we could rest in our own cottages, or whether we should not be driven from the sea coasts to seek shelter in the wilderness, but now we feel as if we might sit under our own vine and eat the good of the land. i feel a gaiety de coar [coeur] to which before i was a stranger. i think the sun looks brighter, the birds sing more melodiously, and nature puts on a more cheerful countenance. we feel a temporary peace, and the poor fugitives are returning to their deserted habitations. tho we felicitate ourselves, we sympathize with those who are trembling least the lot of boston should be theirs. but they cannot be in similar circumstances unless pusillanimity and cowardice should take possession of them. they have time and warning given them to see the evil and shun it. -- i long to hear that you have declared an independency -- and by the way in the new code of laws which i suppose it will be necessary for you to make i desire you would remember the ladies, and be more generous and favorable to them than your ancestors. do not put such unlimited power into the hands of the husbands. remember all men would be tyrants if they could. if particular care and attention is not paid to the ladies we are determined to foment a rebellion, and will not hold ourselves bound by any laws in which we have no voice, or representation. that your sex are naturally tyrannical is a truth so thoroughly established as to admit of no dispute, but such of you as wish to be happy willingly give up the harsh title of master for the more tender and endearing one of friend. why then, not put it out of the power of the vicious and the lawless to use us with cruelty and indignity with impunity. men of sense in all ages abhor those customs which treat us only as the vassals of your sex. regard us then as beings placed by providence under your protection and in imitation of the supreme being make use of that power only for our happiness. question 1: what is abigail trying to convince her husband to do? give at least two examples of how she attempts to persuade him by providing textual evidence within your response.

Will give if correct read the passage first of all, if someone says your dream is impossible, they’re wrong. you can’t prove that something is impossible-all you know is that [it] hasn’t been done yet. people said no one could scale mount everest, but in 1953, sir edmund hilary and tenzing norgay gazed down upon the world from its summit. people said that man could not fly, but in 1903, orville and wilbur wright made the first sustained powered flight in a heavier-than-air machine. people said, “okay, we admit that someone could climb mount everest, and we admit that man has learned to fly, but no one will ever, ever walk on the face of the moon.” if we can send three men a quarter of a million miles away and bring them home safely, is there any great task we cannot accomplish? which identifies the textual evidence that best supports the claim: the authors purpose is to persuade? a: the author shares historical information about the wright brothers. b: the author states that men have walked the moon. c: the author states that others who think your dreams are impossible are wrong. d: the author wants to know what tasks we cannot accomplish.

Read the passage from animal farm. as clover looked down the hillside her eyes filled with tears. if she could have spoken her thoughts, it would have been to say that this was not what they had aimed at when they had set themselves years ago to work for the overthrow of the human race. these scenes of terror and slaughter were not what they had looked forward to on that night when old major first stirred them to rebellion. if she herself had had any picture of the future, it had been of a society of animals set free from hunger and the whip, all equal, each working according to his capacity, the strong protecting the weak, as she had protected the lost brood of ducklings with her foreleg on the night of major's speech. instead—she did not know why—they had come to a time when no one dared speak his mind, when fierce, growling dogs roamed everywhere, and when you had to watch your comrades torn to pieces after confessing to shocking crimes. there was no thought of rebellion or disobedience in her mind. she knew that, even as things were, they were far better off than they had been in the days of jones, and that before all else it was needful to prevent the return of the human beings. whatever happened she would remain faithful, work hard, carry out the orders that were given to her, and accept the leadership of napoleon. but still, it was not for this that she and all the other animals had hoped and toiled. it was not for this that they had built the windmill and faced the bullets of jones's gun. such were her thoughts, though she lacked the words to express them. what was most likely orwell’s purpose for writing this passage? to show that clover is more sensitive to violence than the others to remind readers of major's speech and the original rebellion to present napoleon as a cruel leader unworthy of the animals’ support to represent misled followers and their dashed hopes for better lives
