All are true about the American Revolution EXCEPT
Many soldiers died from cold and disease at Valley Forge.
The colonists did not receive any foreign aid during the war.
Spies played a big part in the colonists winning the war.
The colonists won the war.
Answer:
The colonists did not receive any foreign aid during the war.
Explanation:
The American colonies did in fact receive large amounts of foreign aid, particularly from France, though it also included Spain and Netherlands. Foreign aid came in the form of monetary aid, loan of equipment, as well as provisions of officers to train the army.
1) Out of the 12,000 soldiers that arrived at Valley Forge, around 2,000 died of cold and disease. That places the amount at ~16.67% lost, a substantial amount especially when comparing the status of the US army (or the lack thereof) with their British counterparts.
3) Spies did in fact play a big part in the colonists winning the war, but it was also used extensively by the British, particularly by Governor William Tryon of New York City. On the other hand, the colonists had a number of spy rings that were consolidated, a well known one being called "Culper Ring".
4) The colony did, in fact, win the war, or else there would be no United States of America as we know it.

The news article says all of the following except __________.
A.Listening to loud music can turn microscopic hair cells in the inner ear into scar tissue.
B.Most young people listen to music that is twice as loud as a hair dryer or vacuum cleaner.
C.Experts believe that about 6.5 million young people have at least some difficulty hearing.
D.Hearing loss was discovered in 19.5 percent of teenagers tested between 2005 and 2006.
BOSTON, Massachusetts. A recent study revealed that one in five teenagers has at least some hearing loss. The rate of hearing loss among young people has grown significantly since about 1990. Now, experts are urging kids to turn down the volume on their digital music players. These experts suggest that listening to loud music through earbuds may be responsible for the increase.
For the study, researchers compared data from two nationwide health surveys of hearing loss in 12- to 19-year-olds. The first study was done between 1988 and 1994. The second was done between 2005 and 2006. In the first study, about 15 percent of teens were found to have at least some hearing loss. In the more recent study, 19.5 percent of teens had at least some hearing loss. This means that about 6.5 million young people have at least some difficulty hearing.
Most of the hearing loss in the teens was "slight." Researchers defined "slight" as an inability to hear at 16 to 24 decibels. A teen with slight hearing loss might not be able to hear sounds such as leaves rustling or someone whispering. Dr. Gary Curhan was the study's senior author. According to Curhan, people with slight hearing loss can hear vowel sounds clearly. However, they might miss sounds from some consonants, such as t, k, and s. Experts warn that this minor loss of hearing is sufficient to cause problems in school. It also sets the stage for hearing aids later in life.
"Although speech will be detectable, it might not be fully intelligible," Curhan said. Researchers lack final evidence that listening to iPods and other music devices is to blame for hearing loss in teens. However, researchers did note a significant increase in high-frequency hearing loss. This particular type of hearing loss, researchers said, indicates that noise may be to blame. Researchers cited a 2010 Australian study. The study linked the use of personal listening devices with a 70 percent increased risk of hearing loss in young peopl"I think the evidence is out there that prolonged exposure to loud noise is likely to be harmful to hearing, but that doesn't mean kids can't listen to MP3 players," Curhan said. "Our hope is we can encourage people to be careful."
Loud music isn't anything new, of course. Each recent generation of teens has found a new technology to blast music. Teens listened to bulky headphones in the 1960s and used the handheld Sony Walkmans in the 1980s. Today's teens, however, spend more time than ever listening to music. In fact, according to audiologist Brian Fligor, young people spend more than twice as much time listening to music than previous generations.
One of Fligor's patients is 17-year-old Matthew Brady of Foxborough, Massachusetts. Matthew has a mild hearing loss. He has trouble hearing his friends in the school cafeteria. He has admitted to occasionally faking comprehension. Matthew used to listen to an iPod turned up too loud and for too long. Fligor believes this caused Matthew's muffled hearing.
Matthew used to crank up the volume on his favorites—Daughtry, Bon Jovi, and U2—while walking on a treadmill. He did this at least four days a week for 30-minute stretches at a time. One day last summer, he got off the treadmill and couldn't hear anything with his left ear. His hearing gradually returned, but it was never the same.
Matthew's fondness for listening to loud music in not uncommon. During a study of college students, Fligor found that more than half of those tested listened to music at 85 decibels or louder. That's about as loud as a hair dryer or a vacuum cleaner. According to Fligor, regular listening at those levels can turn microscopic hair cells in the inner ear into scar tissue. Fligor believes that some people, such as Matthew, may be more likely to experience damage than others.
These days, Matthew still listens to his digital music player. But now he listens at lower volumes.
"Do not [blast] your iPod," Matthew cautions other teens. "It's only going to hurt your hearing. I learned this the hard way."

Akhenaten was not liked by the people of Egypt during his reign as pharaoh because he forced them to change their religion from polytheistic to monotheistic. Describe the changes that he tried to make. Based on what you know about Egyptian religion, why do you think this would have been such a large change?
Answer: Akhenaten (pronounced /ˌækəˈnɑːtən/),[8] also spelled Echnaton,[9] Akhenaton,[3] Ikhnaton,[2] and Khuenaten[10][11] (Ancient Egyptian: ꜣḫ-n-jtn, meaning "Effective for the Aten"), was an ancient Egyptian pharaoh reigning c. 1353–1336[3] or 1351–1334 BC,[4] the tenth ruler of the Eighteenth Dynasty. Before the fifth year of his reign, he was known as Amenhotep IV (Ancient Egyptian: jmn-ḥtp, meaning "Amun is satisfied", Hellenized as Amenophis IV).

Atenism
Akhenaten is noted for abandoning Egypt's traditional polytheistic religion and introducing Atenism, worship centered on Aten. The views of Egyptologists differ whether Atenism should be considered as absolute monotheism, or whether it was monolatry, syncretism, or henotheism.[12][13] This culture shift away from traditional religion was not widely accepted. After his death, Akhenaten's monuments were dismantled and hidden, his statues were destroyed, and his name excluded from lists of rulers compiled by later pharaohs.[14] Traditional religious practice was gradually restored, notably under his close successor Tutankhamun, who changed his name from Tutankhaten early in his reign.[15] When some dozen years later rulers without clear rights of succession from the Eighteenth Dynasty founded a new dynasty, they discredited Akhenaten and his immediate successors, referring to Akhenaten himself as "the enemy" or "that criminal" in archival records.[16][17]
Akhenaten was all but lost to history until the late 19th century discovery of Amarna, or Akhetaten, the new capital city he built for the worship of Aten.[18] Furthermore, in 1907, a mummy that could be Akhenaten's was unearthed from the tomb KV55 in the Valley of the Kings by Edward R. Ayrton. Genetic testing has determined that the man buried in KV55 was Tutankhamun's father,[19] but its identification as Akhenaten has since been questioned.[6][7][20][21][22]
Akhenaten's rediscovery and Flinders Petrie's early excavations at Amarna sparked great public interest in the pharaoh and his queen Nefertiti. He has been described as "enigmatic", "mysterious", "revolutionary", "the greatest idealist of the world", and "the first individual in history", but also as a "heretic", "fanatic", "possibly insane", and "mad".[12][23][24][25][26] The interest comes from his connection with Tutankhamun, the unique style and high quality of the pictorial arts he patronized, and ongoing interest in the religion he attempted to establish.

Why should we "obey God rather than men"?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Question: Why should we "obey God rather than men"?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Answer:
Putting God on top of the priority list is a must for all Christians who say that they love God. After all, it's not the number of hallelujahs that we shout on Sundays that matter. Rather, it's through our obedience to His Word that we ultimately show our love for Him.
There's an account in the Bible that shows what kind of Christians we must be – a people who would obey the Lord even if it means discomfort and persecution. In Acts 5, we see Peter and some apostles arrested for teaching the people the truth about Christ. They were healing people in the name of Jesus, and because of this, the temple guards and leading priests during that time confronted them.
Acts 5:26-32 describes how they were confronted, and how Peter responded beautifully.
"The captain went with his Temple guards and arrested the apostles, but without violence, for they were afraid the people would stone them. Then they brought the apostles before the high council, where the high priest confronted them.
"'We gave you strict orders never again to teach in this man's name!' he said. 'Instead, you have filled all Jerusalem with your teaching about him, and you want to make us responsible for his death!'
"But Peter and the apostles replied, 'We must obey God rather than any human authority. The God of our ancestors raised Jesus from the dead after you killed him by hanging him on a cross. Then God put him in the place of honour at his right hand as Prince and Savior. He did this so the people of Israel would repent of their sins and be forgiven. We are witnesses of these things and so is the Holy Spirit, who is given by God to those who obey him.'"
Do we have that same amount of faith and love for Christ, that even in the face of ex-communication, persecution, ridicule, and human authority, we would choose to stand up for Jesus and the truth?
Standing strong in the face of hardship
Peter said, "We must obey God rather than any human authority."
In today's world, various laws and other restrictions are being set up so that any Christian could be prosecuted and legally persecuted for just being true to his faith. Yet, notwithstanding this, we must stand up for Christ and the gospel truth.
There are cases of businesses being sued for declining to serve same-sex marriages. A certain county clerk in America was persecuted for not issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples. These people are worthy of our respect as Christians because they stood up for what God says is right.
Today's Christ-followers must realize that we have to stand strong and not be carried away by the world and its offerings. All hope is not lost. Although Christians are being persecuted left and right for standing on their faith in Christ, we must realize that this is to be expected! After all, "in the last days, there will be very difficult times. People will love only themselves and their money. They will be boastful and proud, scoffing at God, disobedient to their parents, and ungrateful. They will consider nothing sacred." (2 Timothy 3:1-2)
As for us, we must stand strong. The Lord Jesus Himself said in Matthew 24:12-13, "Sin will be rampant everywhere, and the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end will be saved."
Stand strong!

A. It was controlled by Rome beginning in 63 B.C.E.
B. It was part of the land promised to Abraham and his descendants.
C. It was at the crossroads of trade routes east and west.
D. Its people embraced Hellenic culture.
Explanation:
The correct statements about Ancient Judea are:
A. It was controlled by Rome beginning in 63 B.C.E.C. It was at the crossroads of trade routes east and west.why?
Option A is correct because Ancient Judea came under Roman control in 63 B.C.E. after the Roman general Pompey conquered the region.
Option C is correct because Ancient Judea was located at the crossroads of trade routes connecting the east and west, which made it an important hub for trade and cultural exchange.
Option B is not correct because while Ancient Judea is significant in the biblical narrative and is associated with the land promised to Abraham and his descendants, this statement oversimplifies the complex historical and religious aspects surrounding the land and its ownership.
Option D is not correct because the people of Ancient Judea, particularly the Jewish population, had their own distinct culture and religious practices. They did not embrace Hellenic (Greek) culture to the same extent as other regions under Greek influence. The Jewish people maintained their religious traditions and had conflicts with Hellenistic influence during certain periods.

2. In the context of the text, how has America changed over time? How has America’s
treatment of Mexican Americans changed? Has it changed dramatically? Cite evidence from the text, your own experience, and other literature, art, or history in your answe
Answer:
Explanation:
America has undergone significant changes over time, with its treatment of Mexican Americans being a particularly salient example. In the early twentieth century, Mexican Americans experienced substantial discrimination and marginalization. This treatment was often rooted in a perception of Mexican Americans as inferior and in need of control. However, in the latter half of the century, there has been a marked shift in attitudes towards Mexican Americans, with greater acceptance and integration into American society.
The emergence of the Mexican American Civil Rights Movement in the 1960s marks a turning point in the treatment of Mexican Americans. This movement sought to address the systemic discrimination against Mexican Americans, challenging the exclusionary practices of white-dominated institutions and advocating for equal rights. By the 1980s, the Mexican American community had made meaningful progress, with greater political representation, educational attainment, and access to economic opportunities.
However, this progress has been uneven, and challenges remain. Even in the 21st century, Mexican Americans face discrimination in areas such as housing and employment, and are disproportionately affected by poverty and lack of access to healthcare. Moreover, the Trump administration's anti-immigrant policies, including the separation of families at the border and the termination of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, have further exacerbated the challenges faced by Mexican Americans.
Despite these ongoing challenges, there is evidence of continued progress and increasing acceptance of Mexican Americans. For example, in recent years, Mexican American culture has become more mainstream, with greater appreciation for Mexican cuisine, music, and art. In addition, the rise of Mexican American representation in politics, media, and entertainment has helped to challenge stereotypes and promote greater understanding.
In conclusion, the treatment of Mexican Americans in America has changed dramatically over time, with significant progress made towards greater equality and acceptance. However, challenges remain, and ongoing efforts are needed to address discrimination and promote greater inclusion. By drawing on evidence from the text, personal experience, and other literature, art, and history, it is clear that understanding the history and ongoing struggles of Mexican Americans is essential to promoting a more just and equitable society.
