What does the excerpt show about the historical context of the story?
Read the excerpt from "As Good as Gold."
When the news hit the Seattle press in July of 1897,
gold fever had spread to everyone, and old timers
stoked the flames with their stories of uncles who had
struck it rich back in the California days of '49. "But
California was dry and warm," Sam muttered as he
readjusted his pack and trudged on through the biting
snow of an Alaskan February. His brother Jake had
insisted that an early start would get them to a claim
just in time for the spring thaw of those golden creeks.
Gold had been discovered previously in Seattle.
Gold had been mined in North America before.
© Gold was far less valuable than oil at this time
Gold was more valuable in Alaska than California

Read the excerpt from act ii, scene v of romeo and juliet. friar laurence: these violent delights have violent ends, and in their triumph die, like fire and powder, which, as they kiss consume: the sweetest honey is loathsome in his own deliciousness and in the taste confounds the appetite: 15 therefore love moderately; long love doth so; too swift arrives as tardy as too slow. friar laurence is motivated to offer this warning because he knows that something bad will certainly happen to the lovers. feels that romeo is acting foolishly and should not get married. enjoys giving advice because he is wise and can others. wants to caution romeo about the consequences of his actions.
