O The information provides key details to support the facts of the article. O The information was mistakenly included and has no bearing on the aticle. OThe information shows that a remarkable event occurred on an ordinary day.​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

O The information shows that a remarkable event occurred on an ordinary day.​

Explanation:

The Washington Post article "Nixon Resigns" by Carroll Kilpatrick reports the events of President Richard Nixon's resignation after increasing pressure from the nation. This news article details the events coming up to the main day of the resignation.

While the whole article presents the events leading up to the resignation, the meetings before and during the resignation, Kilpatrick chooses to include the weather of the day of resignation. She wrote,

"Thursday was a wet, humid August day, but despite intermittent rain the crowds packed the sidewalks in front of the White House. It was an orderly crowd, resigned and curious, watching newsmen come and go and being a part of a dramatic moment in the life of the nation."

This inclusion of "a wet, humid August day" shows how normal the day was despite the significance of the event that was to unfold.

Thus, the correct answer is the fourth option.

On that day, North Korean troops coordinated an attack at several strategic points along the parallel and headed south toward Seoul. The United Nations Security Council responded to the attack by adopting a resolution that condemned the invasion as a "breach of the peace."

Treaty of Paris 1783

Explanation:

John Monroe was an American diplomat, lawyer and statesman who was elected as the fifth president of the United States of America, he served from 1817 to 1825. President Monroe was born on the 28th of April, 1758 in Monroe Hall, Virginia, United States of America.

After the War of 1812, the United States of America and Great Britain had series of improved relationships with one another. These mutual relationships gave rise to the signing of the 1817 Rush-Bagot Pact and Convention of 1818 which played a significant role in the resolution of longstanding boundary disputes with respect to the 1783 Treaty of Paris.

Under President James Monroe, the 49th parallel was set as the boundary between the United States and Canada by Convention of 1818, which was signed on the 20th of October, 1818 in London, United Kingdom.

On the 22nd of December, 1823, President Monroe published the "Monroe Doctrine" in which European Colonialism in America was strongly prohibited and as such the Western Hemisphere was forbidden to the European powers.

The Treaty of Paris 1783 officially ended the American Revolution; British recognized United States as a free and independent country and gained the British Cession (lands west of the Appalachian Mountains to the Mississippi River).

casualties, impoverished Europe, destroyed three empires, and set the stage for
an even more savage World War II — had many roots.” (Paragraph 3)
C. “on June 28, 1914, a radical Serbian nationalist tossed a burning match by
assassinating Archduke Franz Ferdinand, the heir to the throne of yet another
European superpower, the Austro-Hungarian empire of the Habsburg

D. “What followed was a massacre that lasted an interminable four years, three
months, and eventually brought into the maelstrom two million American
‘doughboys.’” (Paragraph 16)

where French, British and eventually, American soldiers were locked in a
remorseless trench warfare with von Schlieffen’s army.” (Paragraph 18)

sinking of four American ships by German submarines by abandoning the U.S.

C. The Schlieffen Plan forced Germany to fight on both sides, meaning that this
country conquered more land than the Allied Powers combined.
D. The Schlieffen Plan was an overall failure and fell apart after the first major

on.
