Answer:

Someone who is from the West and whose parents are from the West.

Explanation:

In Gary Sato's <em>Like Mexicans</em>, he tells the story of how his parents and family want him to marry a girl from his own race and ethnicity. They seemed to emphasize the importance of marrying within the same 'race', which he also tries hard to obey as far as he can.

In the given passage, Gary mentioned his best friend Scott as <em>"a second-generation okie"</em>. And like he mentioned in the beginning of the story, and according to his grandmother, <em>"everyone who wasn't Mexican, black or Asian were Okies"</em>. So, though Okie is a term generally used to refer to a resident of Oklahoma or a native of that place, Sato used this term as a generalized term for anyone from the West and whose parents are from the West.

Answer:

- "early ripening rice"

- new irrigation techniques and systems

- planting new crops (cotton, tea)

Explanation:

Song Dynasty was a famous Chinese dinasty ruling from 10th till 13th century.

Among other things, this period is famous for massive agricultural improvements which increased crop production. Subsequently, that led to the increase in China's population.

Probably the most famous improvement was the development and use of "early ripening rice". This rice had a shorter life cycle which meant that it could grow 2 - 3 times per year, making more crops.

Also, new irrigation systems and techniques were invented which allowed the crops to be watered more efficiently and preventing drought.

We must not forget that China started farming other crops at that time including tea and cotton.

All of this improved farming making it one of the most notable legacy of the Song Dynasty.
