Answer 1

1. Fittingly enough for the new republic, a revival of classical architecture, encouraged by Thomas Jefferson himself, arose in the United States immediately after the Revolution. The first Government building constructed, the Bank of the United States in Philadelphia, was designed as a Romanesque temple in 1795.

2.One day after Thomas Edison’s "Black Maria" studio was completed, a studio cameraman took the first "close-up" in film history on February 2, 1893. The "Record of a Sneeze", starring Edison’s assistant Fred Ott, was also the first motion picture to receive a copyright.

3. Martha ("Patsy") Dandridge married Daniel Parke Custis at the age of 18. Custis' death in 1757 left Martha a rich widow. Martha D. Custis married Colonel George Washington on January 6, 1759.

4. The canal was formally opened on August 15, 1914 with the transit of the cargo ship Ancon.

5.The members are listed by alphabetical order in their short-form English names with Afghanistan as the first.

Answer 2

1.The Medford Federal Building - U.S. Courthouse (historic name: U.S. Post Office and Courthouse) in Medford is significant as the earliest remaining Federal Courthouse in southern Oregon. It represents the early embodiment of the federal government in that region. The building which was designed in the office of Oscar Wenderoth, supervising architect, U.S. Treasury, was constructed from 1915 to 1916. It is noteworthy that an identical building was constructed in Pendleton, Oregon at the same time. Mr. Wenderoth was appointed to his position in 1912 and was responsible for planning many goverment buildings, especially post offices, before his retirement in 1929. The Medford Federal Building - U.S. Courthouse was designed with many elements of the Georgian Revival style including symmetry, rectangular plan with only minor protrusions, small window panes, arched topped windows (divided as a fan light), classically detailed cornice and balustrade, and red brick exterior. There are also elements of the Second Renaissance Revival style, such as the rusticated first story (performed in brick), a raised first floor with stone base, the lack of front door ornamentation, second level door height casement windows, and wrought iron window ornamentation. These elements give the overall composition a sense of larger scale that is more befitting a federal building. The Oregon State Historic Preservation Office would classify the building as American Renaissance Revival. The Medford Federal Building - U.S. Courthouse is historically significant as one of the best examples of this architecture in southern Oregon.
