Eastern, Central, Mountain, and Pacific. Local times would no longer be used by the railroads.
When did Congress adopt the four standard time zones?Though most states in the United States began to use the Pacific, Mountain, Central, and Eastern time zones by 1895, Congress did not make their use mandatory until the Standard Time Act of 1918. Today, many countries use time zones that differ from those proposed by Sir Fleming.
Initially, railroad executives attempted to solve the problem by establishing 100 different railroad time zones. Because of the many time zones, different railroad lines were sometimes on different time systems, making scheduling difficult and uncertain.
Finally, the railway executives agreed to divide the continental United States into four time zones: Eastern, Central, Mountain, and Pacific. The railroads would no longer use local times.

Who are some of the people, events, new technology, movies, or music that you are familiar with that are about the Cold War, that stand out to you? Why do they stand out to you?
Answer: The “space race” and the first man on the moon.
Explanation:
The one thing that always amazed me about the Cold War is how it became a great push on the development of space technology. Today it´s very clear that without the competition established between the United States and the Soviet Union during the years of the Cold War, humanity wouldn´t have developed the space travel technology that led to the first landed human on the moon as early as 1969.
The irony of such violent competition based on profound political confrontation having such a positive outcome is always the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about the Cold War.

How can you identify a subject in a sentence?
Answer:
The subject of a sentence is the person, place, thing, or idea that is doing or being something. You can find the subject of a sentence if you can find the verb. Ask the question, "Who or what 'verbs' or 'verbed'?" and the answer to that question is the subject.

how does each fable develop the topic of greed? mostly from the story "The dog and his reflection and "The swollen fox"
Explanation:
In the case of the fable of "The dog and its reflection"; , for not being happy with the bone he had and wishing for another bone that "seemed bigger" but was actually an illusion, the dog was left without a bone, the lesson he leaves us is that we have to be grateful and be happy with what we have.
In the case of "The swollen fox"; we can see that by wanting to eat everything quickly due to the hunger he had, he filled up very quickly and was trapped, this teaches us that we must take things slowly and if we want to be successful in whatever we do, no We must be greedy because the consequences will not be very good for us,
Finally, in the fable of the swollen fox we can also learn a lesson about patience, as the fox was trapped now he had to be patient and wait until his belly deflated to get out; In the same way, if we have difficulties or very hard trials in our lives, we must be patient, because patience helps us calmly endure difficulties and not despair; there will always be a solution for everything!

Answer:
the book?
Explanation:
The poet says "Yet knowing how way leads on to way, / I doubted if I should ever come back." What does he mean by "how way leads on to way"?
Answer:
In these lines, Frost is referring to choice. Once a person has decided on a particular route, it is doubtful whether one would ever have the opportunity to return to the original choice and thus decide again.
Both “The Masque of the Red Death” and “Young Goodman Brown” can be seen as allegories, or stories that use characters and plot as symbols for larger ideas about the nature of humanity. How are these stories alike and different? You might consider the stories’ symbols, settings, characters, use of language, the authors’ attitudes toward their characters and events, and so on. What larger idea about the nature of humanity does each present? Support your writing with evidence from the text.
3. Which of the following best describes the evolution of Jacques
Lacan's concept of the mirror stage?
O A Lacan changes the ages of the infantile mirror stage from 15-
18 months to 6-18 months, allowing for a larger age range
when babies can recognize their reflections.
OB Lacan calls the mirror stage as a phenomenon but later
labels it as a general part of normal human (and chimpanzee)
development.
OC Lacan's theory becomes more abstract, the concept taking
on a more philosophical tone than a scientific one.
OD Lacan alters his concept so that it is not considered just a
small period of an infant's life, but an essential and lasting
element of a person's identity.
