Concord staked its merits to be the birthplace of Independence during the celebration of "America's jubilee" on April xix, 1825, the fiftieth anniversary of Concur Fight. Concord in 1825 was an expansive town of 19 hundred inhabitants, thriving with crafts and trade in the village and surrounded past farms prospering on need from rising urban centers in the long boom that accompanied the opening phase of the Industrial Revolution in the Northeast. It besides occupied a prominent place on the political mural; as a shire town, where the county courts convened, it had risen into a leading eye of Middlesex County, and its politicians were major players on that phase. Economic and political ambitions, as well as pride in the past, drove the insistence that Concur was the "first site of forcible resistance to British aggression."
A decade after, past the mid-1830s, with over ii thousand inhabitants, Concord was probably at its political and economic pinnacle. The central village hosted some ix stores, forty shops, four hotels and taverns, iv doctors and four lawyers, a variety of county associations, a press office and a post office. Manufacturing was bustling, too, with a growing manufactory hamlet in the west office of town, along the quick-running Assabet River, and rising production of carriages and chaises, boots and shoes, bricks, guns, bellows, and pencils.
Only a good many people were left out of the prosperity. In what was still a farming boondocks, 64 percent of adult males were landless, while the superlative tenth of taxpayers, some fifty men, controlled nigh half the wealth. Those who failed to obtain a pale in gild, native and newcomer akin, speedily moved on. The ties that one time joined neighbors together were fraying. On the farms, the quondam piece of work community—the huskings, roof-raisings, and apple tree bees—by which people cooperated to complete essential chores gave way to modern capitalist arrangements. When men needed aid, they hired it, and paid the going rate, which no longer included the traditional ration of grog. With a new zeal for temperance, employers abased the custom of drinking with workers in what had been a ritual brandish of camaraderie. At that place was no point in pretending to common bonds.
With the loosening of familiar obligations came unprecedented opportunities for personal autonomy and voluntary choice. Massachusetts inaugurated a new era of religious pluralism in 1834, ending 2 centuries of mandatory support for local churches. Even in Hold, a slim majority approved the modify, and every bit soon every bit it became law, townspeople deserted the two existing churches—the Unitarian flock of the Reverend Ripley and an orthodox Calvinist congregation founded in 1826—in droves. The Sabbath no longer brought all ranks and orders together in obligatory devotion to the Word of God. Instead, townspeople gathered in an expanding array of voluntary associations—libraries, lyceums, charitable and missionary groups, Masonic lodges, antislavery and temperance societies, amongst others—to promote diverse projects for the common good. The privileged classes, particularly the village aristocracy, were remarkably active in these campaigns. Simply even as they pulled back from customary roles and withdrew into private associations, they continued to exercise public power.

Re: Agree staked its merits to be the birthplace of Independence during t [#permalink] xi Oct 2016, 00:38
We tin can map this passage -
Para 1 and Para 2 - hold was an important town economically
Para 3 - many people did not make information technology and moved on/ common relationships changed to be more concern like.
para iv - new era of religious pluralism led to change.
Q1. "village elites" are mentioned in the final paragraph.
A - the terminal sentence of the paragraph - "even as they pulled back from customary roles and withdrew into private associations, they continued to exercise public ability." does not hold with this pick.
B - the concluding paragraph does not mention anything about their political views on religious pluralism. We but know that they were more involved in campaigns for mutual proficient.
C - We practise non know if the village elite ceased Sabbath worship all together. All we know is that Sabbath did non bring all ranks and orders together. Does non mean they ceased Sabbath completely.
D - right answer. Expect at these sentences - "townspeople deserted the ii existing churches/Instead, townspeople gathered in an expanding array of voluntary associations/ The privileged classes, especially the village elite, were remarkably agile in these campaigns.". The 3 sentences propose that many of the village elite abandoned church building activities for such campaigns.
E - "The privileged classes, peculiarly the hamlet elite, were remarkably active in these campaigns." - this judgement does not hateful that they founded such campaigns or that they contributed their wealth to found such campaigns.
Q2.
A - the passage does non talk almost political liberty.The quaternary paragraph talks about religious freedom. Information technology says information technology brought nearly projects for mutual good. Nowhere does it talk about its effect on economical development.
B - the passage is about concord, non about its elite. It too does not talk most their lifestyle (except maybe in the concluding sentence of the passage).
C - the passage does not talk about social alienation at all. Also, this pick goes confronting the tone of the passage.
D - the passage only talks nigh some events in the 19th century, non the unabridged post - independence history. Also, its place in history is mentioned merely in the first line of the passage.
E - correct reply. await at the map in a higher place.
Q3.
A - 64% of adult males were landless does not mean the majority of population was landless. Again this information is nearly the 1830s (19th century).
B - in 1825 the population was 1900. Presumably the population in 18th century was even less.
C - Correct answer. Before 1834 (that means the 18th century as well) they were forced to support local churches - "Massachusetts inaugurated a new era of religious pluralism in 1834, ending two centuries of mandatory support for local churches."
D - America's jubilee did not happen in the 18th century.
Due east - Nosotros know data about 1825 (19th century) not most 18th century.

4. It can be inferred from the passage that which of the following was true of Concord's economy in the 1840s?
(A) Manufacturing was a growing industry, overtaking farming in importance.
(B) The economy probable was stagnant or in pass up relative to the previous decade.
(C) Land buying among developed males was on the rise.
(D) The sale and consumption of alcohol declined sharply.
(Due east) The construction of new farmhouses and other farm buildings slowed.
OFFICIAL EXPLANATION
The question mentions a specific timeframe: the 1840s. The passage doesn't specifically mention the 1840s, simply does mention the 1830s, followed by things that happened afterward in time. Look through this information to notice the answer.
(A) The 2d paragraph mentions that manufacturing was humming in the mid-1930s, but does not provide information to indicate that this continued into the 1940s, nor does the passage ever indicate that manufacturing was overtaking farming.
(B) Correct. The offset sentence of the second paragraph says that by the mid-1830s, Concur was probably at its political and economic pinnacle. The pinnacle is, by definition, the peak. If the economical pinnacle was probably in the mid-1830s, and so the economy was probably non fifty-fifty higher in the 1840s; it would be either the aforementioned (stagnant) or lower (in decline) relative to the 1830s.
(C) The 3rd paragraph indicates that 64 percent of adult males were landless only does not signal whether more or fewer were purchasing country in any timeframe.
(D) The third paragraph does mention a new zeal for temperance, simply temperance means moderation; that is, alcohol is consumed but in moderation. Further, the passage doesn't indicate how widespread this new zeal was; this choice goes to far in inferring that the sale and consumption declined sharply.
(E) The third paragraph indicates that people no longer cooperated freely to construct houses or other buildings; rather, help was hired to reach these tasks. The rate of such edifice is not mentioned in the passage.

C. They ceased all Sabbath worship once religious pluralism became law in Massachusetts.
D. Many had abandoned the Unitarian and Calvinist churches in favor of non-church activities.
Due east. They utilized their wealth to establish a growing number of various projects for the common practiced.
OFFICIAL EXPLANATION
The year 1834 is mentioned in the terminal paragraph, and then the right answer volition probably chronicle to information contained there.
(A) This option direct contradicts the final line of the passage: "But even as they pulled dorsum from customary roles and withdrew into individual associations, they continued to exercise public power."
(B) This choice is incorrect considering the writer does not mention which group in particular was the stronger supporter of the religious pluralism; she only mentions that "a slim bulk canonical the change."
(C) This choice incorrectly asserts that Concord's village elite ceased all Sabbath worship. While they no longer worshiped at the aforementioned church on Sabbath, they did non necessarily cease all Sabbath worship.
(D) CORRECT. The concluding paragraph states that after 1834, "townspeople deserted the two existing churches – the Unitarian flock of the Reverend Ripley and an orthodox Calvinist congregation founded in 1826 – in droves." Instead, many became active in "diverse projects for the common adept." The village elite in detail "were remarkably active in these campaigns." The passage thus suggests that the village aristocracy abandoned the two existing churches in favor of non-church activities such as those mentioned: "libraries, lyceums, charitable and missionary groups, Masonic lodges, antislavery and temperance societies."
(Due east) This pick claims that the aristocracy used their wealth to found the diverse projects. While "various projects for the mutual practiced" is found verbatim in the passage, besides equally the idea that the hamlet elite "were remarkably active in these campaigns" there is no mention of whose private funds, if whatsoever, were used to found them.

Re: Agree staked its claim to be the birthplace of Independence during t [#permalink] 11 Nov 2017, 17:01
Hang on, how is Q1 obviously D?
I see 3 sentences somewhat related to that option:
(1) townspeople deserted the two existing churches....in droves
(two) Instead, townspeople gathered in an expanding assortment of voluntary associations...to promote diverse projects for the common proficient
(3) The privileged classes, particularly the village elite, were remarkably active in these campaigns
Perhaps i of the MGMAT tutors could kindly correct me where I'm wrong hither, simply to claim that "many" village elite abandoned the churches on above information lone necessarily assumes that volunteer project interest and continued churchgoing are mutually sectional events? (why can't a tiny proportion of elite get out the church building but the bulk of them still contribute to non-church activities?)
Or possibly the answer choice makes the spring that because so many townspeople left the churches and so few elites exist as a proportion of said townspeople, information technology must necessarily be the case that "many" elites also left? That'south a lot of leaps to make for an RC passage that had four long paragraphs. I'd appreciate a clarification from 1 of the MGMAT tutors on here, and if not, the Q should exist modified, every bit I see no correct options among the 5.
Thank you.

I am no expert, simply i will share my idea process i followed to become this question right.
Choice D - ascertain Agree's place in American history post- Independence
Though the passage starts with how concord staked its claim to exist birthplace of independence , there is no other information that would provide a link between american history and concord city is given in the passage.
Afterwards the first line in paragraph one , the entire passage talks well-nigh the state political and societal data of the hold urban center and also goes on to state how it evolved in two different decades and ends with the management concord proceeded in subsequently times.
So from the data provided, we could decode that the writer is interested in explaining virtually economic , political status of concord in 1825'due south and how it changed in 1830'south and changes information technology went through in later stages.
Option E is best aligned with out thought process.
Due east. describe 19th century Concord's key economical and political changes, along with their bear on on societal norms
Ans: E

4. It can be inferred from the passage that which of the following was true of Agree'southward economy in the 1840s?
(A) Manufacturing was a growing manufacture, overtaking farming in importance.
(B) The economy likely was stagnant or in decline relative to the previous decade.
(C) Land buying amidst adult males was on the rise.
(D) The sale and consumption of alcohol declined sharply.
This question tripped me up too. When narrowing down to A and B I went for A because "manufacturing was bustling" and thus indicating it was growing. However, upon further inspection, recognizing that manufacturing is an manufacture that would contribute to economic prosperity (if manufacturing was growing) and since Hold had reached "its political and economic pinnacle", you lot tin can safely say that manufacturing was not growing. Nor does the passage mention it overtook farming; it could be a small-scale component that did experienced accelerated growth, just so plateaued.
In instance C, D , or E tripped y'all upward, here is my view
C - Passage states that "64% of developed males were landless", however, there is no indication that this is growing into the 1840s
D - I associated the temperance with the drinking associated with work related activities and goes too far to say that information technology had a sharp decline on booze sales overall and thus had an upshot on the economy
E - Call back most the labor that is used to build a home. People used to freely help one some other simply now people paid others to construct buildings (as mentioned in the third paragraph). This does not mean the rate increased or decreased, it just means the expectation of "gratuitous" community labor changed
Hope this helps.

Quote:
5. The author mentions "modernistic capitalist arrangements" in the third paragraph primarily in social club to
(A) Illustrate 1 aspect of a change in the town's social structure
(B) Contrast with the old work customs used past most farmers of the time
(C) Found the earliest development of commerce in the area
(D) Abet a return to more than old-fashioned customs
(Eastward) Explain the fact that less than half of developed males owned land.
Official Explanation
This is a Specific Detail question near a specific quote, so review the text effectually that quote. The ties that in one case joined neighbors together were fraying. On the farms, the one-time work customs by which people cooperated to complete essential chores gave mode to modern capitalist arrangements. When men needed help, they hired it.
Why does the writer mention mod backer arrangements? Probable to illustrate the principal point of this paragraph: many people were left out of the prosperity as the town developed and as a small number of inhabitants built much greater wealth than the rest.
(A) Correct. The modernistic capitalist arrangements represented a change in the way that farmers and others interacted with one another.
(B) The offset of the sentence does mention old work customs used by farmers, but the purpose is not simply to contrast the ii. Rather, the sentence indicates that the older customs gave style to the mod backer arrangements. The author is noting that a modify occurred because of changes in the overall social structure of the town.
(C) The boondocks was already engaging in commerce, even though this commerce might not take involved modern capitalist arrangements. The previous paragraph discusses stores, shops, hotels, taverns, then on.
(D) It is possible that some people might non take been happy with the evolution of these modern capitalist arrangements, but the writer does not express an stance, nor does the passage advocate anything.
(East) The passage does bespeak that 64 percent of adult males were landless, but the alter from older, cooperative customs to modernistic backer arrangements doesn't explain or illustrate that fact.
Hope this helps.

How-do-you-do Spiddy,
Let me know if this helps.

4. It can be inferred from the passage that which of the following was true of Agree'southward economy in the 1840s?
B for Question four can be inferred from: "A decade later, by the mid-1830s, with over ii thousand inhabitants, Concord was probably at its political and economic meridian. "
The central word to consider here is "pinnacle", since the passage mentions that Concord was at it'south political and economic peak and no explicit information is mentioned about the growth in 1840's, nosotros tin can only infer that later on reaching the maximum growth in mid-1830's, information technology would not have grown farther, thus implying that ehe economy likely was stagnant or in decline relative to the previous decade.
Thanks.

Non convinced with Q5. The question is almost the purpose of a noun entity i.e. "modern capitalistic arrangements". The function of the substantive entity is to present a dissimilarity.
The office of the judgement "On the farms, the one-time piece of work community—the huskings, roof-raisings, and apple tree bees—past which people cooperated to complete essential chores gave way to modern backer arrangements." is to illustrate a modify but the role of that judgement cannot be reduced to a mere phrase.
I am beingness precise with the question hither. Thoughts anyone?

Tin anyone suggest me how to handle questions such as Q5 .
When it is asked - What was the primary purpose for using "XYZ" ? Should nosotros reply in the whole passage'south context or just the immediate context of the phrase "XYZ" ?
Here in the passage , option A goes fine with whole passage'south context merely selection B goes fine with the immediate context.Skywalker18 SajjadAhmad

How-do-you-do ravigupta2912,
Quote:
(A) Illustrate one aspect of a change in the town's social construction
Consider the lines: "The ties that once joined neighbors together were fraying. On the farms, the old piece of work customs—the huskings, roof-raisings, and apple bees—by which people cooperated to consummate essential chores gave way to modern capitalist arrangements. When men needed assistance, they hired it, and paid the going rate, which no longer included the traditional ration of grog. With a new zeal for temperance, employers abandoned the custom of drinking with workers in what had been a ritual display of camaraderie.".
We are not asked a mere function of the phrase, merely implicitly what changes did "modern backer arrangements" bring. Now though the phrase is mentioned as a result of some changes in practices, but what did information technology bring with itself were the distinctions between the people. How earlier at that place was trust, friendship amid people and how it changed to arrangements on ground on requirements, in turn implying that the town'southward social structure had inverse.
Hope This Helps.
Thanks.
