  2. Desirous Avarice Pestilence

  3. Successfully Answer Questions 1. Read the questions • What is being asked? • Is there more than one question? 2. Read the text • Look for the answers and make notes. • Don’t know words? Look them up! 3. Answer the question • Recycle words from the question. • Integrate paraphrasing or quotes from the text. 4. Proofread • Did you answer ALL parts of every question? • Does your writing make sense?

  4. “On Labor Unions” Check your answers to see if you included all of this information. • Role of government = enforce 8hr work day…ensure that the working class has legal rights. Objective of Unions = make sure the government takes care of the working class. • If the government leaves businesses alone, then things work out for the best for all...government and unions should stay out legislating workers’ rights. • Stow: Concerned about workers health, thinks that it is in the interest of employers to contribute to public programs and healthcare. Livermore: Not concerned, it will work itself out on its own. Everyone is responsible for themselves. • (personal choice) but be sure to explain WHY.

  5. Pestilence in the Cigar If you are missing full marks, check to see if you included all of this information: • Views workers as suffering, disease-ridden. Views employers as greedy. Make sure you know what avarice means. • Had no money to leave the job. There weren’t many union jobs. Were worried that they would be fired if they joined a union. Didn’t understand what unions were, as they didn’t speak English. • Make sure you know what pestilence means (It symbolizes the plague). Plague/disease of the cigar are the workers themselves due to their poor working conditions. This is symbolic, not literal.

  6. Sample Answers “On Labor…” If you were the teacher, what comments would you give about these answers. 2. Thomas Livermore’s Testimony reflects the views of social Darwinism by Livermore saying that the person has to work for power, “A man shall work, and what wages he shall get to himself” 3. Dr. Stow does not think making the laborers work long hours in a factory is healthy, while Mr. Livermore believes they should do what is necessary to make a living.

  7. Sample Answers to “Pestilence..” 1. He views the workers as normal people. His attitude toward them is that he feels sorry for them. 2. So many workers were forced to live in tenement factories maybe because they were unskilled and immigrants. 3. It means the smell of the cigar.
