Instead . . . of making their feet soft with sandals, Lycurgus enacted that they should harden them by going without sandals; thinking that, if they exercised themselves in this state, they would go up steep places with far greater ease, and descend declivities with greater safety; and that they would also leap, and skip, and run faster unshod, if they had their feet inured to doing so, than shod.
Is this an example of verifiable or unverifiable information? Why?
This is an example of unverifiable information. The reason is that Lycurgus was a legendary lawgiver of Sparta who may or may not have existed.
Scholars have been unable to determine conclusively whether Lycurgus was a historical person and, if he did exist, which institutions should be attributed to him.
Therefore, the statement about his enactment of going without sandals cannot be verified by historical evidence or sources.
This passage from Lycurgus provides an example of unverifiable information.
The reason is that it describes a historical practice or belief from ancient times that cannot be directly verified through objective evidence or firsthand accounts. Since Lycurgus was a legendary figure in ancient Greece and lived in a time without extensive written records or verifiable sources, the specific details of his enactments, such as the one mentioned in the passage about hardening feet, cannot be independently confirmed. While it is possible that such practices existed in ancient societies, the lack of concrete evidence or empirical data limits our ability to verify the accuracy of this information. Hence, this passage falls into the realm of unverifiable information based on historical accounts and narratives rather than empirical or scientific evidence.For more questions on ancient Greece

What jobs did women perform in the steel industry?
READ THE PASSAGE TO ANSWER:
Women of Steel (Excerpt from a propaganda video)
Steel has been rightly called the sinews of peace and the backbone of war. Behind the guns, and tanks, and ships, and planes, are the blast furnaces and open hearths, the electric furnaces and blooming mills. Tending these giant furnaces have always stood a breed of men apart, giants in the land, those men of steel. But with our country in peril, the women of America rallied to the support of their men, and here in this, almost the last great industry we thought could be handled only by men, these mothers, wives, and sweethearts came to stand shoulder to shoulder with them in almost every capacity. These marvelous women of America. These women of steel. Of course, we had long since accepted their aptitude in fabrication, the swift, sure dexterity of their fingers, as in this stainless steel rib assembly. Their adaptability to small tools. Even the hand welding electrodes. But as the need grew for more and more production of the basic metal itself, more loyal women with a dash a true American pluck and venturesomeness, edged further and further into the real work of steel making. Some with a scientific bent, went into metallurgical control and research labs-- girls fresh from chemical engineering school, older women who had been technical librarians. Yes, women make good inspectors. Here's one applying the magnaflux test to steel for airplane motors. They make good drivers too.American girls raised to drive the family car find it no trick at all to handle trucks and tractors. Mrs. Warner at these crane controls must lift this huge bloom into the furnace to be heated red hot, then carried across the shop to the forging press. It takes good judgment and a steady hand to manipulate it under the drop hammer-- just the right amount and position each time. And Ms. Evans here is very adept at this. Here is the office of the supervisor of women employees. She can tell us more about it. If you will, Ms. Campbell. MS.
CAMPBELL: Women in steel are simply the result of realistic thinking.In time of war, you have to have steel. You also have to have people to make it. With the Army taking men by the thousands-- more than 16,000 from our plant so far-- we had to find people to replace them. A great untapped reserve was women.
NARRATOR: How many do you have?
MS. CAMPBELL: About half of the replacements are women, more than 8,000 of them. The rest are older men and young boys.
NARRATOR: And the women, are they doing all right?
MS. CAMPBELL: Beyond anything anyone ever dreamed of. They're doing something in almost every department in the plant. And I don't mean just clerks and checkers. We have women engineers and oilers in the boiler room. Women repair experts. Women work at the oil mines above ground. Along the unloading docks. And our private railroad tracks. Women carpenters. And women shipbuilders. And women load and unload our freight cars. We have girls in charge of our tool cribs, and that takes the knowing of a lot of tools to do that. These women are working around the clock around the calendar. They do a man's job, and they can draw a man's pay. And they're doing it safely. They're safer here than in their own homes.
Answer: They worked on the production floors, testing facilities, and storage yards at steel mills

Excerpt from China, Korea, and Japan to 1800 (2010)
by Sanderson Beck
In this excerpt, the author describes the government of the Zhou Dynasty.
The early Zhou kings continually emphasized the importance of ruling by virtue1.... Overseers were advised not to [use] violence and oppression2 but to show [respect] for the friendless....
[Two nobles] advised the king to be aware that the favor of heaven is not certain but must be continually earned.... If the king avoids excessive violence and capital punishment, the people will imitate [him]. . [The] people were encouraged to work hard and prosper.... The Duke of Zhou claimed that heaven helped the Zhou ... because heaven supports the virtuous and punishes wrong-doers....
[The] early Zhou governments were to continue in China for about three thousand years. The Prime Minister ... [led] the management of the officers and secured [structure and order] in the kingdom. The Minister of Instruction was responsible for education in the states, diffusing3 knowledge ... and training the military in obedience. The Minister of Religions presided over ceremonies and regulated religious services. The Minister of War oversaw the military forces and the security of the borders. The Minister of Crime enforced the laws by [arresting] and punishing wrong-doers. The Minister of Works presided over the land, the four classes of people, and the proper seasons for farming.

: On this day in 1968, President Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act. This act protected the rights of people, including African-Americans and women. Why do you think it’s important for all people to be treated equally? What kind of inequalities are still around today? Please write a 7 sentence paragraph.
Answer:
Here is how I would write a paragraph on this subject (please consider re-writing this in your own words)
Explanation: In my opinion, the importance of having equality as a part of our nation is not only needed so appreciation is presented to each person as an equal but, it brings the needed characteristics in each society. It also, encourages and builds respect, responsibility, leadership, trust, and a life that matters. All these traits maintain and can even create a comunity. Equality is when someone recognizes fairness is lacking so, they advocate for the change that is needed. Woefully, inequalities of all sorts still linger about to this day without change. Significant inequalities shown throughout society today include racial discrimination such as racial gaps in education, wage imbalances, sexism, and health care. To summarize, I believe equality should be manifested to everyone and changes are still needed in humanity in addition to the unfairness that loiters around presently, for we are all the same.

Examine the reason some countries do not allow citizens to express their points of view in public. Predict how life in the United States would change without free speech and free press.
Life in United States without free speech will be a life where you have to be concerned on what you say because of the penalties. A few examples will be if an actor were to say something that wasn't allowed, then they will get cut from the show or movie. Some people could be fired from their jobs or could not be able to get another job. Without free press, people can look through your social media and take something you said years ago that was not all that smart and use it against you, ruining your chances of a life you want. The people of the United States will be less free, having to make sure they are careful with who they are talking to and about what.

What do you think about the different treatment of females in so many of these ancient civilizations, particularly ancient Greece and Rome? Do you think that women and girls are discriminated against in modern society today? Give specific examples to back up your argument.
Answer:
Women in the current day have more luck on their side as there is less prejudice against our species.
The excellent way of life known as Democracy was invented by the ancient Greeks. Democracy is the process through which we, the people, choose who will lead our country. However, there were certain obvious flaws in this system, such as the inability of impoverished people, women, and slaves to vote. Women took care of the house's C's, which meant we performed the cooking, cleaning, and caring. And you'll very certainly need the help of a male figure to live. As it became more difficult for women to get permanent employment, they would marry and stay at home to cook, clean, care for their children, and so on. As women were domestic employees, called housewives, there weren't a lot of activities and things to accomplish.
