Various phenomena, such as rainfall, snowmelt, monsoons, typhoons, hurricanes, and cyclones can cause rivers to<u> </u><u>flood</u> their banks.
Flooding typically takes place while prolonged rain falls over numerous days, heavy rain falls over a brief length, or whilst an ice or debris jam causes a river or circulates to overflow onto the surrounding place. Flooding can also result from the failure of water manipulate structures, including a levee or dam.
The most essential sources of flood-inflicting precipitation and runoff within America are extratropical cyclones and their associated fronts; convective thunderstorms, especially after they arise in mesoscale convective structures; and tropical cyclones.

The answer is D. The Cultural Revolution, formally the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution, was a sociopolitical movement in China from 1966 until 1976. Launched by Mao Zedong, then Chairman of the Communist Party of China, its stated goal was to preserve Chinese Communism by purging remnants of capitalist and traditional elements from Chinese society, and to re-impose Mao Zedong Thought (known outside China simply as Maoism) as the dominant ideology within the Party.
In the violent struggles that ensued across the country, millions of people were persecuted and suffered a wide range of abuses including public humiliation, arbitrary imprisonment, torture, hard labor, sustained harassment, seizure of property and sometimes execution. A large segment of the population was forcibly displaced, most notably the transfer of urban youth to rural regions during the Down to the Countryside Movement. Historical relics and artifacts were destroyed and cultural and religious sites were ransacked. Hope this helps! ~ Autumn :)
