a. Why would the Founding Fathers not have foreseen the Civil War?
b. How did Eli Whitney’s cotton gin change the legacy of the South during the Antebellum Period?
c. What key details support or elaborate on the relationship between cotton and slavery presented in "When Cotton Was King"?
Answer:
George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson and James Madison aren’t American heroes because they were farmers. But in her new book, Founding Gardeners(Alfred A. Knopf), the London-based historian Andrea Wulf, 43, argues that the founders’ love of gardening and farming shaped their vision of America. She spoke with assistant editor Erin Wayman.
Why was gardening so important to the founding fathers?
The most obvious answer is that good crops were incredibly important to the economy and to America’s self-sufficiency. On an ideological level, the founders believed America should be an agrarian republic of virtuous citizens who were connected to the country because they worked the soil. America’s landscape also became invested with patriotism and provided a distinct national identity. Whereas Europe had antiquity and ancient ruins, America had to find something that was better in the New World than in the Old. Rugged mountains and untamed forest came to represent a country that wanted to see itself as strong and fertile.
How did agriculture influence the nation’s structure?
Jefferson believed independent farmers should be the foot soldiers of the nation. When he purchased the Louisiana Territory, several Federalists opposed this, questioning why they should spend money “for land of which we already have too much.” But Jefferson believed vast lands were necessary for his agrarian republic.
The English imported a lot of plants from the colonies during the 1700s.
When Jefferson and Adams went on a garden tour in England in 1786, they realized the English garden wasn’t English at all. It was populated with American shrubs and trees. Jefferson hated the English, but he had to admit they created the best gardens. It was only after he saw that the English garden was full of American species that he realized how easy it would be to create such a garden in America, and without feeling unpatriotic. It’s ironic that at the very moment the colonies declared their independence, the English garden was filled with plants from the former colonies.
You write that Madison was at the forefront of conservation. How so?
This was the greatest surprise in writing the book. Madison is not just the father of the Constitution; he’s also the forgotten father of American environmentalism. He tried to rally Americans to stop destroying the forest and the soil. He said for America to survive, Americans had to protect their environment. He did not romanticize nature as later generations did. He looked at this in a practical way, saying nature was a fragile ecological system, and if man wanted to live off nature, in the long term something had to change.
What would the founding fathers think of how Americans care for natural resources today?
I suspect they would find the recent turn toward vegetable gardening and local produce good. Jefferson believed in the independent farmer, with small-scale, self-sufficient farms. I don’t know if he would have said in the 20th century, Let’s go for full industrial agriculture. Jefferson and Madison hated cities, so they probably would have liked the idea of rooftop farming and urban gardening as ways for people to connect with the soil.
How is the early emphasis on gardening felt today?
I think Americans still have a strong connection to the land. It resonates with the idea of freedom. Compare this to England: English gardens are cute, with roses and little herbaceous borders. Here it’s more about size and ownership: This is my plot of land. It means I belong to this country.

April 26th, 1862.
There is no word in the English language that can express the state in which we are, and have been, these last three days. Day before yesterday, news came early in the morning of three of the enemy's boats passing the Forts, and then the excitement began. It increased rapidly on hearing of the sinking of eight of our gunboats in the engagement, the capture of the Forts, and last night, of the burning of the wharves and cotton in the city while the Yankees were taking possession. -A Confederate Girl's Diary, Sarah Morgan Dawson

The number of Senate seats held by each state is?
Answer:“The Senate shall be composed of two senators from each state” appears to be a single provision, the designated number of senators per state. Delegates agreed to this number, however, only after they had considered a larger matter: legislative representation.
Explanation:
The Constitution prescribes that the Senate be composed of two senators from each State (therefore, the Senate currently has 100 Members) and that a senator must be at least thirty years of age, have been a citizen of the United States for nine years, and, when elected, be a resident of the State from which he or she is chosen. A senator's term of office is six years and approximately one-third of the total membership of the Senate is elected every two years.
The number of Senate seats held by each state is said to be two.
The number of Senate seats held by each state is?Even if of a state's population size or geographic size, each state in the United States is represented equally in the Senate with two senators.
This equal representation of states in the Senate is a key feature of the bicameral structure of the U.S. Congress, where the House of Representatives is based on population representation, and the Senate provides equal representation for all states.

Using what you have learned, write a one- to two-paragraph journal entry describing life in the trenches. Be sure to include details similar to those in the readings, and write from the perspective of a soldier fighting in the war.
Answer:
Trench warfare in World War I was employed primarily on the Western Front, an area of northern France and Belgium that saw combat between German troops and Allied forces from France, Great Britain and, later, the United States. Although trenches were hardly new to combat: Prior to the advent of firearms and artillery, they were used as defenses against attack, such as moats surrounding castles. But they became a fundamental part of strategy with the influx of modern weapons of war.
Long, narrow trenches dug into the ground at the front, usually by the infantry soldiers who would occupy them for weeks at a time, were designed to protect World War I troops from machine-gun fire and artillery attack from the air. As the “Great War” also saw the wide use of chemical warfare and poison gas, the trenches were thought to offer some degree of protection against exposure. (While significant exposure to militarized chemicals such as mustard gas would result in almost certain death, many of the gases used in World War I were still relatively weak.)

The Perseverance rover will NOT ____. A. Allow scientists to study how spacesuit materials hold up on Mars B. Explore a crater experts think once held a lake C. Take readings of Venus's clouds D. Attempt to extract oxygen from Mars's atmosphere
Answer:
The correct answer is option C
Explanation:
The Perseverance Rover was designed to explore the Jezero crater on Mars as part of NASA's Mars 2020 mission. It was manufactured in the Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
The Perseverance Rover was planned with assistance from the Interest's designing group. Designers updated the Persistence wanderer wheels to be more strong than Interest's wheels, which have supported some harm. The meanderer has thicker, more solid aluminum wheels, with decreased width and a more noteworthy distance across (52.5 cm (20.7 inch) than Interest's 50 cm (20 in) wheels. The aluminum wheels are covered with spikes for footing and bended titanium spokes for springy help. The mix of the bigger instrument suite, new Testing and Storing Framework, and changed wheels makes Diligence heavier than its archetype, Interest, by 14% (899 kg to 1025 kg) The meanderer will incorporate a five-jointed mechanical arm estimating 2.1 m (6 ft 11 inch) long. The arm will be utilized in blend with a turret to investigate geologic examples from the Martian surface
