Describe surrealism in your own words ?? Help !

Answers

Answer:

Surrealism is almost a dream-like reality.

Surrealism was a cultural movement that was developed in Europe. It was considered the "aftermath" of World War I. The movement itself is most recognized for the visual art and writings of uncommon imagery. The artists that created works of surrealism painted disconcerting, irrational scenes. They created very strange creatures or things made from everyday objects. The artists had also came up with painting techniques that helped the more unconscious part of your mind express itself.

Some works of surrealism have the element of surprise and no logical flow or pattern. It is said the aim of surrealism was to "resolve the previously contradictory conditions of dream and reality into an absolute reality, a super-reality", aka surrealism.

There is a lot to surrealism and can be very confusing, but I hope this helps!

Can someone please write a summary of the advantages of both Internationalism and Isolationism?

Answers

Answer:

Both have a long history of use in the study of American foreign relations, but there are problems with both that limit their descriptive and analytical utility. Their limitations have been addressed before, yet they are still commonly used and remain popular among scholars and the wider public, partly due to the ease with which the history of American foreign relations can be simplistically defined as an ongoing struggle between the forces of isolationism and internationalism.

THIS ISN'T MINE (It's boardd620) but I like it so....here

Explanation:

The First World War 1914-1918 unfolded in two main theaters of operations - in Western and Eastern Europe, as well as in the Balkans and Northern Italy, in colonies - in Africa, China, Oceania. In 1914, all the participants in the war were going to win through a decisive offensive, and no one expected that the war would become protracted.

Entente countries were able to coordinate actions on two fronts - the Russian offensive in East Prussia coincided with the most difficult moment of battles for France, in fact, breaking the German blitzkrieg. Germany was forced to fight on two fronts at the same time, and also to carry out the transfer of troops from front to front, not being able to concentrate forces against one enemy.

Very soon after the outbreak of the war, it became clear that the clash would become protracted. The uncoordinated actions of the Entente countries, which possessed superiority, allowed Germany, the main military force of the Triple Alliance, to wage war on an equal footing. For the first time in this war, hostilities have become truly massive. For the first time, tanks, fighter aircraft, dreadnought ships, and chemical weapons were used.

2. Referencing the article (webquest link), when the government first shut down, what were

lawmakers having trouble reaching an agreement about?

3. What were the two main reasons that led to the government shutdown?

Answers

Explanation:

1. Note, the term compromise in politics refers to when both parties in a dispute make concessions. To promote compromise there is an equal voice in the Senate, but in the House of Representatives it is based on the size of each state's population, thus creating an opportunity for shared powers.

2. A lack of agreement between the Republican-led House of Representatives and the Democratic-led Senate was because of the contents of the 2014 Continuing Appropriations Resolution bill that would in effect create a delay in funding for the 2013 Affordable Care Act (ACA).

3. The US Government shutdown were as a result of:

a. Refusal to pass the Affordable Care Act by the US Senate,

b. There was no compromise bill by the end of September 30, 2013, which led to a government shutdown in early 2014.

Answers

Answer:

I believe the answer is C. many mining towns were abandoned when miners moved to new mines.

Explanation:

The name given to mining towns that were abandoned after all the gold was mined from the rivers and streams was ghost towns. These towns once were full of people that were there to exploit raw materials such as gold of coal. After that happened, people left the locations and headed to another place to find more raw materials. That is why ghost towns look abandoned. There are remains of houses and sone buildings, but the place looks deserted.
