In the year 1783, scientific progress met old-fashioned beliefs. On an otherwise normal day, a group of French villagers got quite a surprise. Down from the sky, a strange creature slowly floated. With pitchforks and other farm tools, the villagers struck the creature. Under this furious attack, the creature finally stopped moving.
To the eighteenth-century villagers, the object from the sky looked like a monster. At the time of the monster's visit, very few people had ever seen a balloon. From his science studies, Professor Jacques A. C. Charles had learned that a newly discovered gas called hydrogen weighed less than air. When he filled a sack with this gas, the sack floated into the air. From the heart of Paris, Charles had released his balloon, and then watched as it floated away. In their attack, the villagers destroyed the first hydrogen balloon.
I hope this helps!

Each our desire bring us somewhere. If we want something
it cannot be just a simple wish. Our desires are given to us by the Universe. In fact, they are given to
us for any reason. On the way to reach it or obtain it we acquire enormous
treasures. The final scene of the book proves that the reality does not always
meet our expectations. That sometimes we have to struggle seriously hard<span> circumstances.... However, even the
worst things on the way of reaching desired things lead to huge attainments in
life perspectives. </span>
That. I doubt you want a long explanation, but I must give one, so, simply. woodpeckers are animals, which are referred to as it or that. Rude, huh?
I think the answer would be a because there would be more attention brought to the subject.
