May 2007 - U.S. History

<p>Pontiac's Rebellion was an Indian uprising against colonial expansion... it led to the Proclomation of 1763.</p>

<p>I got 5 Bs and 3Es, and left the 4th E blank because I wasn't positive.</p>

<p>The bad economy before 1929 was an excessive amount of imports I think. I'm actually sure I saw this question on one of the practice tests.</p>

<p>What did everyone get for depreciation of currency during the revolutionary war?</p>

<p>Any one remember the question or the answer to the Tammnay thing?</p>

<p>Also the Alger H. question?</p>

<p>What was the women question after 1963? Affirmative action or Equal Rights Amendment</p>

<p>What was the significance of the Missouri Compromise?</p>

<p>The paper money in the Revolution led to unrest in the Continental Army.</p>

<p>I'm 99% positive that it was low farm prices. There were protective tarrifs during the 1920's (hence the business boom) which would not have allowed an excessive amount of imports.</p>

<h2>WPA helped millions of people</h2>

<h2>Missouric Compromise delayed the issue of slavery (positive about this)</h2>

<h2>Tammnay would prefer spoils system</h2>

<p>what did most americans want after the treaty of paris of 1783? choices were like strong union with 1 executive, increased internal trade with no foreign trade</p>

<p>by the looks of things i did pretty well.. heres what a bunch of q's i remember and the right answer</p>

<p>marshall's belief question - was a federalist so he supported strong central government</p>

<p>desegregation of hte army - i put after 1946, not sure about this one tho. i didnt put 1917-1946 because they were segregated in ww1.</p>

<p>the prohibition question - i put the medicine answer, it didnt seem right</p>

<p>for the factory passage - i put taylorism = efficiency, cause fred taylor believed in streamlinig the process (ie only eat during lunch, no time for breaks etc)</p>

<p>the art show - cubism</p>

<p>first female VP - ferraro</p>

<p>nixon/watergate question - executive priviledge</p>

<p>also did anyone else get this picture on their test?

or am i going insane?</p>

<p>ERA because it was never actually ratified.....</p>

<p>Horatio Alger= Self Made Man!!! Yeah for guessing </p>

<p>Who was the first Female VP?</p>

<p>Women after 63 never passed the Equal Rights Ammendment... it's still being debated today.</p>

<p>Horatio Alger wrote of the Self Made Man during the gilded age.</p>

<p>Missouri Comp delayed a political crisis over slavery.</p>

<p>female VP was something ferrero</p>

<p>what about the passage about shipping rates and being able to ship to all over the United States?</p>

<p>Female VP was Geraldine Ferraro (sp?).</p>

<p>I said unionism for the factory quote because I coundn't determine if it was a positive or negative connotation for the working conditions.</p>

<p>Americans after the revolution wanted a loose confederation of states, hence the Articles of Confederation.</p>

<p>^^shipping rates from magazines would harm local merchants and artisans.</p>

<p>For that Japan-US relations question.. im pretty sure that FDR did not stop the assets (or something like that) with japanese in 1941, so i think B was the answer... i wasnt sure if we didnt allow them to have chinese land.. </p>

<p>any conformations??</p>

<p>We did freeze Japanese assets - thats what caused anger and the attack at Pearl Harbor</p>

<p>yeah for the indicator of bady economy b4 1929, there were like 3 that were right, wages rose 12% (inflation, farm prices bad, export one was right i think to.
wut did fred jackson truner believe was defining pt. of america, frontier?</p>

<p>yep, thats the "Turner Thesis" about the fronteir.</p>

<p>yeah he wrote a book about the frontier</p>

<p>@ kyzan : Excessive amount of imports? Are you 100% sure about this one?</p>

<p>Conformation on the voting one.. where they mispredicted the president... i said b/c of bias in who they asked</p>

<p>Yeah, they asked ppl with cars and phones, misrepresenting the poor who comprised a large part of the New Deal coalition.</p>

<p>@kysan/wis3ly: there were not excessive imports in the 1920s. There were high protective tarrifs.</p>
