Unit 1 “Peopling America” Short-Answer Practice
Directions: Read each question carefully and write your responses in the corresponding boxes on the answer sheet.
• Use complete sentences. An outline or bulleted list alone is not acceptable. • You do not need a standard thesis for the answer. • Label your responses a, b and c where appropriate. • Only information within the box will be graded.
1. Using your knowledge of history and the excerpts above, answer parts a, b and c.
A.) Briefly explain ONE major difference between the two excerpts. B.) Briefly explain ONE example from Winthrop’s quote that depicts 17th century
Puritan New England. C.) Briefly explain ONE example from Hutchinson’s quote that depicts 17th
century Puritan New England. “For this end, we must be knit together in this work as one man, we must entertain each other in brotherly affection, we must be willing to abridge our selves of our superfluities for the supply of others' necessities. We must uphold a familiar commerce together in all meekness, gentleness, patience and liberality. We must delight in each other, make others' conditions our own, rejoice together, mourn together, labor, and suffer together, always having before our eyes our commission and community in the work, our community as members of the same body. So shall we keep the unity of the spirit in the bond of peace, the Lord will be our God and delight to dwell among us, as His own people and will command a blessing upon us in all our ways, so that we shall see much more of His wisdom, power, goodness, and truth then formerly we have been acquainted with.”
- John Winthrop, A Model of Christian Charity, 1630 “They thought that I did conceive there was a difference between them and Mr. Cotton... I might say they might preach a covenant of works as did the apostles, but to preach a covenant of works and to be under a covenant of works is another business.”
- Anne Hutchinson, Trial and Interrogation of Anne Hutchinson, 1637
