TX History Ch 9.3
Early Texas had an economy dominated by farming and ranching during the 1820s and 1830s. Large plantations specialized in growing cotton and other crops with slave labor. Ranching also grew as a key economic activity, with Tejanos and later settlers raising cattle on the prairies and in river valleys. Trade and business developed, with merchants and other businessmen operating under a largely free enterprise system with minimal government control. However, poor transportation infrastructure, especially roads, posed challenges for economic growth.

Chaque année, l’État du Texas dépensait environ 20 millions de dollars par an afin de nettoyer les autoroutes, encombrées d’ordures. Geste faisant partie de leur quotidien depuis de nombreuses années, les Texans, en abandonnant leurs détritus aux bords des routes, participaient donc à la dégradation écologique de cet état, dont ils sont pourtant si fiers.

En effet, ce cas démontre qu’en adressant aux cibles un message dans leur propre langage – en touchant directement leurs valeurs et aspirations - l’impact est d’autant plus important.

Texas - Emma
Texas was originally inhabited by Native American tribes and was later ruled by Spain, France, Mexico, and the Republic of Texas before becoming the 28th U.S. state in 1845. The Battle of the Alamo in 1836 was a defining moment in the Texas Revolution for independence from Mexico, where Texian and Tejano forces were defeated by the Mexican Army after a 13-day siege led by General Santa Anna. Texas joined the United States as a state following the annexation in 1845, which led to the Mexican-American War.

Texas project
Spanish explorers first visited Texas in the 16th-17th centuries, settling near El Paso in 1682. In 1821, Americans began settling along the Brazos River when Texas was controlled by Mexico. In 1836, after a war between American settlers and Mexico, the Republic of Texas was established with Sam Houston as president. Texas remained a republic for almost a decade before being annexed by the United States in 1845. The name "Texas" comes from a Caddo Indian word meaning "friends" and the state motto reflects this as "Friendship."
Texas Chapter 1 powerpoint
Early explorers arrived in Texas in the 1500s and 1600s from Spain and France, but neither established permanent settlements. In the 1700s and 1800s, Spain and later Mexico colonized the region, establishing missions and cattle ranching. Anglo settlers began arriving in large numbers in the 1800s, and Texas declared independence from Mexico in 1836 to become the Republic of Texas. It later joined the United States as a state in 1846. Texas has since developed a strong economy based around oil industry and is becoming increasingly diverse.

Most early settlers in Texas were farmers from the United States, drawn by cheap land and easy payment terms, as well as seeking to escape debts from an economic depression. By 1834, the population of Texas was estimated at 21,000, with 15,000 from the United States and 4,000 Tejano residents, mostly living in San Antonio or Nacogdoches. Settlers arrived by wagon trains, horseback, walking, or water transportation, usually settling along rivers and streams in areas with fertile soil.
Mirabeau Lamar
Mirabeau Lamar became president of the Republic of Texas in 1836. He opposed annexation by the United States and wanted to expand Texas west to the Pacific Ocean. As president, Lamar reversed Houston's policy of protecting settlers from Native American attacks. He forcibly removed the Cherokee from Texas and ordered attacks on the Comanche, leading to conflict and deaths. Lamar also pursued an unsuccessful expedition to Santa Fe that cost lives and money. By the end of his term in 1840, Texas faced a large public debt and its currency had declined significantly in value due to Lamar's financial policies.

A.为什么留学生需要操作留信认证?
留信认证全称全国留学生信息服务网认证,隶属于北京中科院。①留信认证门槛条件更低,费用更美丽,并且包过,完单周期短,效率高②留信认证虽然不能去国企,但是一般的公司都没有问题,因为国内很多公司连基本的留学生学历认证都不了解。这对于留学生来说,这就比自己光拿一个证书更有说服力,因为留学学历可以在留信网站上进行查询!
B.为什么我们提供的毕业证成绩单具有使用价值？
查询留服认证是国内鉴别留学生海外学历的唯一途径但认证只是个体行为不是所有留学生都操作所以没有办理认证的留学生的学历在国内也是查询不到的他们也仅仅只有一张文凭。所以这时候我们提供的和学校颁发的一模一样的毕业证成绩单就有了使用价值。乌龟和王八贼头贼脑的倒也逗人喜爱日上三竿时山娃总爱窜进自家瓜棚里跟小伙伴们坐着聊天聊着聊着便忍不住往瓜田里逡巡一番抱起一只硕大的西瓜用石刀劈开抑或用拳头砸开每人抱起一大块就啃啃得满嘴满脸猴屁股般的红艳大家一个劲地指着对方吃吃地笑瓜裂得古怪奇形怪状却丝毫不影响瓜味甜丝丝的满嘴生津遍地都是瓜横七竖八的活像掷满了一地的大石块摘走二三只爷爷是断然发现不了的即便发现爷爷也不恼反而教山娃辨认孰熟孰嫩孰甜孰淡水
