Read this excerpt from "Birdfoot's Grampa.” The old man must have stopped our car two dozen times to climb out and gather into his hands the small toads blinded by our lights and leaping, live drops of rain. What are readers most likely to infer from the phrase "blinded by our lights”? A. The action in the poem takes place at night. B. The weather makes the toads difficult to see. C. Another car is coming around the bend. D. Grampa is shining a lantern to see the toads.

I believe it's a, it can't be B because it doesnt mention rain in the phrase given.

here are some major conflicts i found. maybe pick one and do more research on it. (cause i ain't writing 6 paragraphs)

in 1877, the nez perce war took place.

1881 - president james garfield was assassinated.

1882 - the chinese exclusion act was passed.

1883 - a decision in the civil rights cases legalized racial segregation in the united states.

1887 - the dawes act was passed.

1893 - the panic of 1893 took place. (what a creative name)

and there are probably other topics you can find if you just search up "united states timeline," or "conflicts in the 19th century for america."

then once you find a topic you like find out how it affected the people of america and what not. (sorry if this feels a bit short changed, history was and never will be one of my strong topics)
