after the war, khrushchev said that stalin’s leadership cost the soviets “much blood”. why did he likely describe stalin’s leadership in this way?
Answer:
Explanation:
Saying that the Soviets paid with blood for Stalin’s leadership was Khrushchev’s way to refer to the brutality of Stalin’s control, as well as his disregard for human life. Stalin’s authority was rather brutal and often resulted in many death that served the purpose of strengthening control and proving his point and command. For example, the Katyn massacre occurred on Stalin's orders in 1940. This was the event in which over 20 000 Polish people were executed, including many civilians.
More importantly, Stalin was also famous for his purges. In these repressions and killings, the victims were mainly Soviet people: wealthy peasants, ethnic minorities, and Stalin’s political enemies (some who were previously his collaborators and governmental officials). The exact number of deaths is unknown, but numbers go from 600 000 up to over 1 million people, all before 1938.
All of these events are why it is said that Stalin’s leadership has caused much blood spilling in the Soviet Union as many people, Soviet and foreign, lost their lives because of his authority.
Read "The Workers of Ellis Island"; and look at the photo. Three men standing behind a seated man. The first man is wearing all black with a white-collar. The second man is wearing a white shirt with a black jacket. The third man is wearing all white. Which statement is most likely accurate? The man on the left works as a surgeon at Ellis Island. The man who is standing in the center is a clerk at Ellis Island. The man who is sitting recently received medical attention. The man on the right has traveled from a foreign country.
Answer:
The man who is sitting recently received medical attention.
Explanation:
Interestingly, based on the description of the photo, we could get some measure of detail about the surroundings.
Remember, we observe that the three men were standing not sitting behind the other man; meaning they likely have enough/more strength to stand. So, it seems most likely to say that the man who is sitting recently received medical attention, that's why he sits to rest and regain his strength.

why is it often difficult for most people to diagnose meningitis
early?
Answer:
Meningococcal disease can be difficult to diagnose because the signs and symptoms are often similar to those of other illnesses. If a doctor suspects meningococcal disease, they will collect samples of blood or cerebrospinal fluid (fluid near the spinal cord). Doctors then send the samples to a laboratory for testing.
Explanation:

Meningitis is an extremely serious, often life-threatening disease — yet its early symptoms often resemble the flu, and that can make it difficult to diagnose. There are five types of meningitis, each caused by different factors.

How does social media manipulate us
Answer:
Explanation: Media manipulation is a series of related techniques in which partisans create an image or argument that favours their particular interests.[1] Such tactics may include the use of logical fallacies, psychological manipulations, outright deception (disinformation), rhetorical and propaganda techniques, and often involve the suppression of information or points of view by crowding them out, by inducing other people or groups of people to stop listening to certain arguments, or by simply diverting attention elsewhere. In Propaganda: The Formation of Men's Attitudes, Jacques Ellul writes that public opinion can only express itself through channels which are provided by the mass media of communication – without which there could be no propaganda.[2] It is used within public relations, propaganda, marketing, etc. While the objective for each context is quite different, the broad techniques are often similar.
