U.S. History
Primary Sources: George Washington criticizes the Articles of Confederation, 1785

Read the paragraph from the section "The Necessity Of A Controlling Power Is Obvious."

It has long been speculated among philosophers and wise men whether foreign commerce is of real advantage to any country. That is, whether the luxury, effeminacy and corruptions introduced along with foreign commerce are counterbalanced by the convenience and wealth it brings. The answer to these questions, though, is of very little importance to us: We have abundant reason to be convinced that the eagerness for trade within these states is not to be restrained. Therefore, it is our responsibility to determine how best to regulate this trade. Just as with any other matter of national concern, this task cannot be done by 13 heads differently constructed and organized. The necessity of a controlling power is obvious, and why it should be withheld is beyond my comprehension.

Question 4 (1 point)
Primary Sources: John Jay critiques Articles of Confederation to Jefferson

Read the selection from the section "October 27, 1786."

The public papers I have sent you contain everything generally known about these matters. The lawless in Massachusetts and elsewhere show the same traits. They have a reluctance to pay taxes, and an impatience for the government. They have as well a great desire for property, with little regard to the means of acquiring it. To these problems may be added the influence of adventurers, and the speculations of the many characters who prefer personal to public good. It is easy to see how much vigor and wisdom a government must have in order to bring these many evils under control.

Which two words would BEST replace "reluctance" and "vigor" in the selection above WITHOUT changing the meaning?

Question 4 options:
unwillingness; strength
eagerness; energy
hesitancy; weakness
enthusiasm; fragility

Read this paragraph from the section "Tyranny May Raise Its Head."

In short, my dear sir, we are in a very unpleasant situation. Changes are necessary, but, what they ought to be, and how and when they will be produced, are very hard questions to answer.

If liberty does not take root here, little pains will be taken to develop it elsewhere.

unpleasant
demanded
abuse
pains
