Answer:
Raw materials arrived in bigger towns with great frequency, which meant that these towns and cities could grow and develop faster.
Explanation:
The given question is about the text <em>California and Mesopotamia: Similarities and Differences.</em>
The options you were given are the following:
- Raw materials arrived in bigger towns with great frequency, which meant that these towns and cities could grow and develop faster.
- Overland transportation at that time was painfully slow and clunky, via simple wheeled pushcarts, or pack animals such as donkeys and camels.
- The canals provided a built-in transportation system for the Sumerian and Akkadian peoples who first settled the place.
- These rivers had many different branches, tributaries, feeding into them, creating a vast network of streams and canals.
The correct option is the first one as it directly states that water transportation helped towns and cities develop faster, making it crucial for the economical development of Mesopotamia. The rest of the options do not.
The second states why overland transportation wasn't the best, why it made things harder. There is nothing about water transportation.
The third simply states that the canals provided the Sumerian and Akkadian peoples with a transportation system. It doesn't say why that's good, unlike the first one.
The fourth would be the worst option as it doesn't include any information about transportation systems.
My dad Mike and I were vacationing on Nantucket island, off the coast of Massachusetts. We had left home, which is Concord New Hampshire and had arrived at the ferry boat Nantucket Queen.
The next day we rented a boat and sailed into Grebers Bay, the voices of other sailors the sound of the water beneath us and the flapping of the overhead sails were pleasant, suddenly the peaceful scene, was interrupted by shouts from another boat that had turned and was heading right into us watch out two men yelled excitedly,
"We've lost control of our boat! Grab the tiller John" dad yelled to me "pull it toward you when I give the signal"
"All right dad" I responded dad grabbed the sail and as he adjusted it he yelled at me.
"Now John, pull back", I did what he said not a moment too soon, *whew* what a narrow escape! The other boat passed within twenty-two inches of ours.
Hope I helped!!
