Answer:

hope this help's its pretty long...

Explanation:

Luo is the narrator's best friend. They've been friends their whole lives, as they grew up next door to each other in the city of Chengdu. Luo is sent to the mountain to undergo re-education with the narrator, but life on the mountain makes him very depressed; he battles insomnia and moments of deep desperation. His chances of getting off the mountain are even slimmer than the narrator's because his father, the dentist, is serving time in prison. The narrator claims that Luo possesses no useful skills, but Luo is a skilled storyteller. He performs "oral cinema shows" for the village headman, in which he sees a film and then recites the film's story for the village, making his story last the length of the actual film. This earns Luo and the narrator a reprieve from their manual labor, as the process of seeing a film entails a four-day round trip journey to the city of Yong Jing and the headman agrees to pay the boys for their time. Luo is often selfish (when the boys obtain their first novel, there's no question that Luo will read it first) and convinced of his superiority. Luo is quite taken with Balzac's novels, and he sees that Balzac's work has a transformative effect on his girlfriend, the Little Seamstress. Though Luo loves the Little Seamstress, he's patronizing towards her, believing that she's uncultured and less intelligent than he is. By reading Balzac to her, Luo intends to make the Little Seamstress cultured enough to be worthy of his affections, but his education has an unintended effect: she gains the confidence and vision to leave the mountain for good by herself. Distraught, Luo burns the beloved novels in an emotional and drunken frenzy.

8. Name two geologic processes that can expose fossils buried below the surface.
STALIN [3.7K]
Mountain building, weathering, and erosion eventually expose the fossil at the surface. Sedimentary rock is the type of rock that is made of hardened sediment. Most fossils form from animals or plants that once lived in or near quiet water such as swamps, lakes, or shallow seas where sediments build up.

1. Geography affects the settlement of future civilizations when taking into account the resources provided in different areas. Lusher areas with a larger range of edible plants and animals as well as water are a very appealing location to start a settlement. Of course, different groups of people with different lifestyles will be searching for varying resources to start their society, or to just stay temporarily if they choose nomadic existence.

2. Climate majorly affects settlements depending on if they want to grow crops, as well as the type of crops. Another factor dealing with climate in relation to settlements is if it is a bearable climate to live in long term without higher death rates due to temperatures.
