Explanation: As the earth rotates around its own axis and revolves around the Sun different parts of the earth get different times and different seasons when it's winter in the northern hemisphere it's summer in the southern hemisphere

We get day and night because the Earth spins (or rotates) on an imaginary line called its axis and different parts of the planet are facing toward the Sun or away from it. It takes 24 hours for the world to turn all the way around, and we call this a day.

The earth's spin axis is tilted with respect to its orbital plane. This is what causes the seasons. When the earth's axis points towards the sun, it is summer for that hemisphere. When the earth's axis points away, winter can be expected. Also, Earth's tilted axis causes the seasons. Throughout the year, different parts of Earth receive the Sun's most direct rays.

What is the source talking about? Is it post-war population increase?
Assoli18 [71]
A spectacular population increase has accompanied the west coast’s industrial revolution. The Portland metropolitan area showed a 31 per cent increase in population since 1940; the Seattle area shows an increase in population for the same period of 200,000; and an estimated 1,500,000 people have entered California since 1940. Since most industrial activity on the west coast is confined to the manufacture of aircraft and the construction of ships, sharp curtailment of employment is threatened in the post-war period. With a population increase of 14 per cent, California, for example, faces the problem of shifting 1,500,000 workers from war activities to civilian jobs after the war. . . .

The typical white defense migrant is a young man, twenty-five years of age or younger, married, from a small town or rural area in the Pacific Northwest, anxious to settle in the area, and primarily interested in industrial employment in the post-war period. A study made recently in the Kaiser yards in Portland indicates that only 23.6 per cent of the migrants expressed a definite intention to leave after the war; that only a very few have maintained economic ties elsewhere or have jobs to which they might return; that considerable numbers have purchased property in the area; that a majority have their families with them; and that 86 per cent must find new employment immediately after their present employment terminates.

What does Wallace mean when he refers to the “natural, hard-wired default-setting”
pychu [463]
<span>All of us are a product of the culture we are raised in, the rules and regulations that we must follow and the spoken and unspoken world views that are passed on. We see the world from our perspective and our reality, we cannot help it, it is the filter we look at life through. Sometimes without even knowing how prejudiced we are, we form our opinions from the experiences we have had and what we have watched as we were growing up. Everything comes from a place deep within us that helps us make sense of the world and the people in it.</span>
