Which of the Following revolutionized early Native American cultures?
a) the discovery of hunting
b) the developement of agriculture
c) tribal political alliances
d) emergance of a writen language
e) the domestication of the horse

I think this is a bad question because it does not specify "early". It could be E, but the horse did not come to america untill the Spanish arrived in the 1500s. That does not seem early to me. Does anybody have an answer and a reason. This is confusing me alot. Pardon my spelling.

I will be really glad if one out there can figure out just a verb that's got no opposite. Go-Come, black-White,i think that should be an exemption to this scenario.

Teachers are generally rated and paid according to their qualifications and experience.In practice their supervisors use loyalty,industry,preparations,knowledge of subject and many other similar subjective measures to appraise them.Like in Sports where the Goal and points are very clear and open to all,the results of the pupils in the discipline a teacher handles should be the most important indicator of his or her proficiency in an objective manner like a league table in most sports..If operationalised,teachers effectiveness may improve and motivation and retention of the best amongst them enhanced.
