Question 6 of 10 2 Points
Which of the following excerpts from "The Significance of the Frontier in

A. Movement has been its dominant fact, and, unless this training
has no effect upon a people, the American energy will continually

OB. The works of travelers along each frontier from colonial days
onward describe certain common traits, and these traits have,
while softening down, still persisted as survivals in the place of
their origin, even when a higher social organization succeeded.
C. He would be a rash prophet who should assert that the expansive
character of American life has now entirely ceased.
O D. Thus each one of the periods of lax financial integrity coincides
with periods when a new set of frontier communities had arisen.
