Answer: A. The Navajo live in the dry Arizona deserts.
Explanation:
The “Twelfth Song of Thunder” is a Navajo poem that celebrates the earth and its creatures. It was sung during a traditional Navajo Mountain Chant ceremony.
The Navajo people are a Native American tribe that lives in the Arizona deserts. In such an environment, there is not enough water, which causes the drought. The Navajo are thus aware of the importance of water. In this poem, they celebrate the thunder and the storms, as rainy weather will break the drought.
