Answer:Why was the Christian community something that people wanted to join? I think that only because at least certain parts of the early Christian mission were intent in creating new community, that only for that reason this movement was successful. Now what does it mean "new community?" Let me talk about this in two different levels. One was certainly that the message that was preached here promised gifts, spiritual gifts, to people that went beyond the everyday life experience and promised also immortality, a future life which would be liberation from sickness and from disease and from poverty, and individual isolation. There is a future for the individual. And the message of the possibility for a human being to be related to something that is beyond the powers of this world was certainly one great attraction. But that alone would not have been enough. I think it's a very important spiritual-religious factor. But it would not have been enough, because, in spite of all the glories of the Roman Empire, people lived in the world in which there was inequality, there was great poverty on the one hand and immense wealth in the hands of a very few people. There were sickness and disease and there were no public health services, and doctors were expensive.
Now here's also the question of the inequality which Rome really reinforced through the Augustan system. Rome is a very strict hierarchical system, in which the emperor is at the pinnacle, all the way up and then all the blessings in the world that come to people come down from above. The emperor is the conduit to the divine world. And if you're at the bottom of that social pyramid, not a whole lot of things are coming down to you anymore. Slavery slowly diminished, but continued to exist.
Now the Christian community, as we have it particularly in the letters of Paul, begins with a formula that is a baptismal formula, which says in Christ there is neither Jew nor Greek, neither male nor female, neither slave nor free. This is a sociological formula that defines a new community. Here is a community that invites you, which makes you an equal with all other members of that community. Which does not give you any disadvantages. On the contrary, it gives even the lowliest slave personal dignity and status. Moreover, the commandment of love is decisive. That is, the care for each other becomes very important. People are taken out of an isolation. If they are hungry, they know where to go. If they are sick, there is an elder who will lay on hands to them to heal them.

1. Ấn Độ giáo thờ gì?
Ấn Độ giáo chứa đựng nhiều triết lý tôn giáo. Vì lý do này, đôi khi tôn giáo còn được biết đến như một cách sống hay một gia đình tôn giáo, không giống như các tôn giáo hợp nhất khác.
Tập tục chính của Ấn Độ giáo là tôn thờ một vị thần tối cao Brahman, cùng với các vị thần và nữ thần khác. Các tín đồ Ấn giáo tin rằng có nhiều con đường tu tập để có thể một ngày về với vị thần họ tôn thờ.
Người Ấn giáo tin vào các thuyết về luân hồi (vòng luân hồi liên tục của sự sống, cái chết và tái sinh) và nghiệp lực (luật nhân quả).
Một trong những triết lý quan trọng của Ấn Độ giáo là “atman”, niềm tin vào sự tồn tại của linh hồn. Triết lý này cho rằng mỗi một sinh vật sống trên đời đều có linh hồn, và tất cả đều là một phần của linh hồn tối thượng. Niềm tin hướng đến sự cứu rỗi, kết thúc vòng luân hồi để đạt đến linh hồn độc nhất, tự tại.
Một nguyên tắc cơ bản khác trong Ấn Độ giáo hindu là ý niệm cho rằng tất cả hành vi và suy nghĩ sẽ trực tiếp quyết định cuộc sống hiện tại và tương lai của con người..

Tập quán ăn uống cũng là một phần quan trọng trong cuộc sống của người Hindu. Hầu hết họ không ăn thịt bò hoặc thịt lợn, và nhiều người ăn chay.
Ấn Độ giáo có mối liên hệ chặt chẽ với các tôn giáo khác ở Ấn Độ, như Phật giáo, đạo Sikh và Kỳ Na giáo. Có thể thấy nhiều giáo lý trong các đạo giáo khác bị ảnh hưởng khá nhiều từ Ấn Độ giáo.
2. Ấn Độ giáo thờ vị thần nào?
Ngoài Brahman, vị thần được tôn là tối thượng trong tất cả các thần, vị thần sáng tạo ra vạn vật. Người Ấn giáo còn tôn thờ nhiều vị thần và nữ thần khác nữa.
Brahma: Vị thần có công tạo ra thế giới và mọi sinh vật sinh sống trên thế giới
Vishnu: Vị thần bảo tồn và bảo vộ vũ trụ
Shiva: Vị thần hủy diệt trong vòng tái sinh vũ trụ
Devi: Nữ thần chiến đấu để tái sinh dharma
Krishna: Vị thần của lòng trắc ẩn, sự dịu dàng và tình yêu
Lakshmi: Nữ thần của thịnh vượng và sự thuần khiết
Saraswati: Nữ thần học tập
Nghi thức thờ cúng Ấn Độ giáo
Việc thờ cúng theo đạo Hindu, hay puja, thường diễn ra ở các Mandir (ngôi đền). Các tín đồ Ấn Độ giáo có thể ghé thăm Mandir bất cứ lúc nào họ muốn.
Người Ấn giáo cũng có thể thờ cúng tại nhà, và nhiều người thậm chí còn lập đền thờ dành riêng cho một số vị thần và nữ thần của riêng họ.
Nhiều người Ấn giáo lại lựa chọn hành hương đến các đền thờ và địa điểm linh thiêng khác ở Ấnhác ở Ấn Độ để hành lễ theo nghi thức. Độ để hàn

"To make sure they would have eternal life, pharaohs built fabulous tombs for themselves."
Which part of this is a fact?
Which part of this statement is an opinion?
Answer:
The first part of this sentence is a fact, the second part is an opinion.
Explanation:
The reason why the second part is an opinion is because workers built the tombs, not the pharaohs. It is correct where it says the tomb were built for the pharaohs, but it wasn't by themselves; in fact, they didn't even do any of the work on the tombs, they just saw the progress of it.

Describe the Mexican immigrants in Texas. Why did they emigrate from Mexico to Texas? What are some examples of their culture in Texas?
Answer:
Mexican immigrants have to get papers in order to live in the US legally
Explanation:
Answer:
The most influential immigrant group in Texas culture came from Mexico. Mass relocations occurred at the turn of the 20th century due to the Mexican Revolution. Agricultural expansion attracted laborers. By 1930, Mexican American population of Texas exceeded 700,000, and by 1960 it exceeded 1.4 million. Many Mexican Americans worked as migrant farm laborers in Texas who began on the farms of South Texas and moved north into the Panhandle. After World War II, increased numbers of Mexican Americans left rural areas and moved to urban areas. Mexican Americans actively sought to bridge their two worlds. By the 1920s, Mexican American leaders sought integration of Mexican Americans into American society. They began learning English and participating in the political system while still honoring traditions of Mexico. By the 1990s, nearly 40% of all Mexican Americans in the workforce held skilled or professional positions. Mexican American culture blended the customs of Mexico with those of the U.S. Mexican customs were heavily influenced by Spanish traditions. Spanish newspapers and radio stations addressed news and concerns of both nations. Mexican Americans have a strong literary tradition, Tex-Mex food (a blend of the two cuisines), and are represented by many painters, sculptors, and musicians like artist Manuel Acosta and singer Selena Quintanilla-Pérez.

PASSAGE:
5
Mr. Franklin is remembered as a scientist, inventor, printer, writer, and one of our country’s important early leaders. His ant experiment is just one of many interesting stories from his life.
6
One day he discovered ants crawling all over his kitchen shelf. Within minutes, a little jar of molasses was alive with them. He picked up the container and took out the pests.
7
But one ant stayed inside, swallowing the sweet, sticky syrup and storing it in the pouch, or crop, inside her mouth. (All worker ants are females.)
8
Because Mr. Franklin wanted to know if ants could communicate with one another, he gave this ant a challenge. He tied a piece of string around the mouth of the jar and hung it on a nail in the ceiling. Then he settled down to wait and watch.
9
Shortly, the insect crawled up the inside of the container, over the rim, and down the side.
10
But when she reached the bottom, there was, of course, no shelf! The ant dashed here and there and round and round. She zigged and zagged and eventually found the string.
11
Then a fast march up, a dash across the ceiling, and a race down the wall and over the floor led her to an opening that let her out of the kitchen. She vanished.
12
About thirty minutes later, Mr. Franklin spotted an army of ants moving like running water toward the wall. They swarmed up, flowed across the ceiling, and scrambled over to the nail holding the string. They lined up and marched, one after another, down the string and into the jar.
13
Before long, there were two lines of ants on the string, one line tramping down to get at the sweet food, and the other line parading upward. They were carrying home globs of molasses in their crops.
QUESTION:
Which statement best summarizes Benjamin Franklin’s discovery in the second section of the passage?
A. Ants transport food by carrying it inside their crops.
B. Ants are intelligent enough to escape from simple traps.
C. Ants can exchange information about where to find food.
D. Ants can move very quickly from one location to another.
Answer:
C: Ants can exchange Information about where to find food.
Explanation:
Ants communicate very well to their colony by phramones to find food.
