What does the destruction of the mosques indicate about the importance of Islam in Persia between 1200 and 1450 CE?

Islam was consistently practiced by all in Persia.
Islam led to a decline of education in the city of Baghdad.
Islam was already in decline, making Persia vulnerable to invasion.
Islam was a unifying force in Baghdad at the time of the invasion.

Refer to the passage.

"They [the Mongols] came down upon the city and killed all they could, men, women and children, the old, the middle-aged, and the young. Many of the people went into wells, latrines, and sewers and hid there for many days without emerging. Most of the people gathered in the caravanserais [inns] and locked themselves in. The Tatars [Mongols] opened the gates by either breaking or burning them. When they entered, the people in them fled upstairs and the Tatars killed them on the roofs until blood poured from the gutters into the street; ‘We belong to God and to God we return’ [Qur'an, ii, 156]. The same happened in the mosques and cathedral mosques and dervish convents. . . . And Baghdad, which had been the most civilised of all cities, became a ruin with only a few inhabitants, and they were in fear and hunger and wretchedness and insignificance.”

Ibn Kathir, Al-Bidaya wa Al-Nihaya, 14th century
"Remembrance of Things Past: On the City of Peace, Baghdad,” in Al-Ahram Weekly Online, Cairo (April 2003)

Amir wishes to buy some gifts to give to a friend. The gifts that he has found cost $4, $6, $9 and $14. Amir has only $25 to use to buy the gifts and he wants the amount that he spends to be as close as possible to $25, without going over. What are the prices of the gifts that Amir will buy? *


Suppose there is an additional gift that Amir could buy that costs $19 and that Amir is now willing to spend up to $30 on the gifts. What will be the total cost of the gifts that Amir will buy now?

Which of the following religious policies remained consistent throughout the Mongol Empire?

The policy of restricting European missionaries, which began in Persia
The spread of the Islamic religion, which began with the Abbasid caliphate
The policy of religious tolerance, which was similar to the policy under the rule of the Arab sultanates
The rejection of Christianity as an official religion, which was similar to its rejection in other empires throughout Asia

Refer to the passage.

"The next day (25th May) (the Chan) sent his secretaries to me, who said: ‘Our lord sends us to you to say that you are here Christians, Saracens [Muslims] and Tuins. And each of you says that his doctrine is the best, and his writings—that is, books—the truest. So he wishes that you shall all meet together, and make a comparison, each one writing down his precepts, so that he himself may be able to know the truth.’ Then I said: ‘Blessed be God, who put this in the Chan’s heart. But our Scriptures tell us, the servant of God should not dispute, but should show mildness to all; so I am ready, without disputation or contention, to give reason for the faith and hope of the Christians, to the best of my ability.’ They wrote down my words, and carried them back to him. Then it was told the Nestorians that they should look to themselves, and write down what they wished to say, and likewise to the Saracens [Muslims], and in the same way to the Tuins.”

Excerpt from The Journey of William of Rubruck, written by a Franciscan monk sent by King Louis IX of France to the Mongol Empire in 1253

The passage reveals which of the following trends from the period 1200 to 1450?

C. Luxury goods and products became accessible to the middle and lower classes.
D. Economies were declining throughout Eurasia as a result of Mongol invasions.

Refer to the passage.

Furthermore all merchants arriving from India or other countries, and bringing with them gold or silver or gems and pearls, are prohibited from selling to any one but the Emperor. He has twelve experts chosen for this business, men of shrewdness and experience in such affairs; these appraise the articles, and the Emperor then pays a liberal price for them in those pieces of paper. The merchants accept his price readily, for in the first place they would not get so good a one from anybody else, and secondly they are paid without any delay. And with this paper-money they can buy what they like anywhere over the Empire, whilst it is also vastly lighter to carry about on their journeys. And it is a truth that the merchants will several times in the year bring wares to the amount of 400,000 bezants, and the Grand Sire pays for all in that paper.

Excerpt from The Book of Ser Marco Polo, the Venetian, Concerning Kingdoms and Marvels of the East, Vol. 2, 1871

(1) Hong Kong is one of the most densely populated places on Earth: people crowd into tiny living spaces, some with only a bed, a hot plate, and a toilet. (2) The city is made up of more than 200 islands, and there is no more available land to house its people. (3) To solve this land shortage problem, officials have proposed a radical solution: creating a whole new island. (4) The East Lantau Metropolis would be built on land reclaimed from the sea and would house 1.1 million people.

(5) A different problem faces the people of Kiribati—a nation in the central Pacific Ocean made up of 33 islands (most of which are less than twenty feet above sea level). (6) Because of rising sea levels, some inhabitants have already had to abandon their homes. (7) New islands will have to be built to ensure a safe future for its citizens, because science indicates that Kiribati will go underwater within the century.

(8) Artificial islands have been seen as solutions for a number of problems in recent decades. (9) The city of Dubai has been constructing a luxurious palm-tree-shaped series of islands to house hotels. (10) Osaka, Japan, built an island off its coast to relieve its overcrowded airport. (11) The Maldives, Malaysia, and Seoul have all built or have plans to build artificial islands to expand their territory.

(12) So, is building artificial islands a good solution for modern-day challenges? (13) Not everyone thinks so. (14) Constructing artificial islands destroys the coral reefs that nourish fisheries and protect the coastline from the impact of waves; it also destabilizes precious coastal ecosystems. (15) Building on unstable dredged sediments also endangers human inhabitants, especially in areas prone to earthquakes.

The writer wants to provide relevant support for the claim made in sentences 12 and 13. Which of the following sentences, if added after sentence 13, would most effectively accomplish this goal?

A) According to the Australian Bureau of Meteorology’s National Tidal Centre, there has been an average sea level rise of 7.3 millimeters a year around low-lying islands like Kiribati in the past few decades.

B)A professor of biology at Old Dominion University, Kent Carpenter, notes that poaching of giant clams does more damage to marine ecosystems than island building does.

C)Marine biologists contend that the urban sprawl spreading into the oceans inevitably causes havoc for marine organisms and their habitats.
Marine biologists contend that the urban sprawl spreading into the oceans inevitably causes havoc for marine organisms and their habitats.

D)The government of South Korea expected to have 300,000 residents in the utopian smart city built on the artificial island of Songdo.


E)Environmental scientists at Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia, have noted that those building artificial islands can use techniques like silt curtains to help minimize the environmental impact of these projects.

Did Spanish language spread because of religion or Arabic?

Coral reefs are the most diverse of all marine ecosystems. They are home to almost one quarter of all ocean species. Coral reefs are also important to people, providing food, protection of shorelines, tourism jobs, and even medicines. However, this is a fragile ecosystem, threatened by human activity and environmental changes. Which of these threats is not caused by abiotic factors? A) Coral reefs are affected by overfishing. B) Coral reefs are affected by changing ocean chemistry. C) Coral reefs are affected by global warming due to increases in greenhouse gases. D) Coral reefs are affected by pollution due to runoff of chemicals into the ocean.

The helicopter view in the figure below shows two people pulling on a stubborn mule. (Take F1 = 110 N and F2 = 79.0 N.)
An illustration shows the helicopter view of a mule being pulled along a forked road in two directions by two men. An x y coordinate system is overlaid on the image, with the origin at the mule's nose, and the mule facing in the positive y-direction. The man on the right is pulling the mule toward the right-side forked road with a force F1. This force vector makes an angle of 60.0° with the horizontal drawn right in front of where the mule is standing. The man on the left is pulling the mule toward the left-side forked road with a force F2. This force vector makes an angle 75.0° with the horizontal.
