How does the above description contrast with early mining operations in the American West?

This is gold mining today, the ads proclaim—beautiful hills, waving fields of grass, prancing mule deer, a glimmering lake . . .
—T.H. Watkins, "Hard Rock Legacy," National Geographic, March 2000

Answers

Answer 1

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can say the following.

The above description contrast with early mining operations in the American West in that the formerly conditions of the old west were completely different than the "beautiful hills, waving fields of grass, prancing mule deer, a glimmering lake . . ." description by T.H. Watkins.

Indeed, it was the opposite. American settlers that decided to bet on the west and the "gold fever," found difficult conditions and economic hardships. That was not an easy time and required extra work to find the gold.

And let's have in mind that many people that went to the west were people that have been suffering from the difficult conditions in the Plains during the so-called "Dust Bowl" period in which drought and the lack of rain killed animals and affect the production of crops.

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The Treaty of Paris of 1783 resolved issues between Great Britain and newly-formed America, but one of the conflicts that could not be resolved by the treaty was the issue of the boundaries of land and the many disputes about territories between the new nation and the English monarchy that derived too in trade differences between the two nations.

The Treaty of Paris of 1783 officially ended the American Revolutionary War. The British crown accepted to grant the colonies independence. Those issues remained unresolved and were the motive of conflicts and disputes that could be resolved until 1794 with the signing of the Jay Treaty.

One of the conflicts that was not addressed in this treaty was the fact that the British did not let Americans make their own decisions.

What was the treaty of Paris?

This was a treaty in the North of America that had the French people give out all the territories in North America that they claimed.

How do you think the controversy of the Scopes Trial affected Americans’ views on freedom of speech?

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The controversy of the Scopes Trial affected Americans’ views on freedom of speech in that it limited the free expression of a high school teacher that tried to teach lessons about human evolution.

In 1925, in the case Scope v. State, professor John T. Scopes tried to defend his position and freedom to teach about evolution, in a time when the Butler Act of the state of Tennessee prohibited the teaching of any subjects regarding evolution in the public school system.

So this trial affected freedom of speech due to the prohibition imposed by Butler's bill. Both lawyers made their cases and although in the end, Professor Scopes was not punished, the bill was recognized legal by the state court.
