June 2010: US History

<p>Women in World War II was Rosie the Riveter. </p>

<p>The result of French and Indian war was that Britain gained more control of north america or something like that</p>

<p>There was a question about the Sugar Act/Townshend Acts? Anybody remember the answer</p>

<p>Can anyone confirm that the Speaker of the House isn’t appointed by the President</p>

<p>The Embargo of 1812 resulted in the U.S having less commerce or it bankrupted merchants?</p>

<p>The Constitution doesn’t allow for everyone to vote</p>

<p>There was a question about the Federalist Papers. I remember two of the answers was about having a republic form of government and another one was about being more democratic. Can anyone confirm the answer to this?</p>

<p>The great awakening in the 18th century - revivals?</p>

<p>"also…the question about major trends between 1865-1900, was the answer about trusts/monopolies? "</p>

<p>i think trust-busting, etc. became a major trend -after- 1900 (around the time of TR, taft, ww)
I put another choice down but i dont remember it :(</p>

<p>^I put that African-Americans moved to northern cities for jobs in industry, or something like that. I also thought the answer could have been about “trusts and monopolies”</p>

<p>@harembee
i can confirm that the Speaker of the House isn’t appointed by the President</p>

<p>The Speaker of the House isn’t appointed by the pres, the speaker is appointed by the House of Reps.</p>

<p>well that was fun…not. this thread is lowering my confidence; i already see some questions i got wrong! haha</p>

<p>Me too, massgirl. I thought I did great- I’m not so sure anymore. :-(</p>

<p>French-Indian, no boundary changes</p>

<p>Spanish-AMerican War get’s us first imperialistic holdings</p>

<p>confirm?</p>

<p>The question that had the books and one of which was “The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit” was about the conformist something right?</p>

<p>@Harambee</p>

<p>Speaker of the house definitely not appointed by the president</p>

<p>i put that it resulted in less commerce…i think the bankruptcy one mentioned britain specifically and ik the embargo applied to, if not all countries, definitely france too.</p>

<p>for the federalist papers one i put the answer that was something like it was a republican form of govenrment and reduced factionalism</p>

<p>and yeah revivals for the awakening one</p>

<p>don’t remember the others…i remember having trouble witht he sugar/townshend one though</p>

<p>@thispakistangir - I can confirm that. But do you remember more of the question about the French and Indian war?</p>

<p>Camp David Accords was the answer with egypt and Israel (def got that :slight_smile: )</p>

<p>Settlement houses- public housing for low income families??</p>

<p>confirm rosie the riveter and speaker of the house. the embargo question’s answer had something to do with reduction of trade with britain/less commerce so yeah i agree. french and indian war – british empire in north america expanded was the answer.</p>

<p>i disagree about federalist papers however. i put the answer choice that included factions because that was madison’s argument.</p>

<p>@ goldenrule </p>

<p>i disagree with the federalist paper one. I think the answer was about the need to make the strong centralized government that they needed to win the revolutionary war. </p>

<p>lol just my guess…</p>

<p>For the settlement hosues, I said that they let women get involved in social welfare work.</p>

<p>leegood21 - the whole Constitution thing was after the Revolutionary War ended</p>

<p>federalist papers came after rev war.
im pretty sure it was arguing that republic would prevent factionalism</p>

<p>for the settlement houses i put they gained experience or something</p>

<p>for settlement houses i put affordable housing for low income families (?)</p>

<p>federalist papers was def arguing for republic.</p>

<p>“For the settlement hosues, I said that they let women get involved in social welfare work.”
i can confirm that</p>
