Answer:Walking past this home, in a street full of heritage terrace houses in Fitzroy North, Melbourne, you may not immediately realize the building is new. From the street, the crisp facade of what at first appears to be a historic worker’s cottage hints at the highly resolved architecture beyond the front door. This “door” however, is in fact a battened gate that deftly mediates between the public and private realms.
Behind the unusual entry, the main two- storey volume of the house sits between a verdant front courtyard and a rear outdoor living space. Crafted from concrete, glass and steel, this modernist structure is bathed in sunlight from two courtyards with orientation to the east and west, and a quasi terrarium to the north. This clever siting, responding to the perils of the typical long, linear site with built-up boundaries, is sensitive to the street and the rear laneway.
With refined and contemporary detailing throughout, this is a skilful response to context that provides freedom within a relatively constrained site. It enables daily life and play in a village of sorts, highly connected to the outdoors.

Answer:
The rise of air pollution in Chinese cities is a direct result of the increased economic activity (and very fast economic growth) that globalization has generated.
Explanation:
This is because China, since the 1980s and 1990s, has become a "workshop" for the world: and industrial powerhouse that produces all kinds of manufacturing products for both the Chinese market, and the world market. In fact, China has benefited from the outsourcing of hundreds of thousands of American and European jobs, mainly due to the lower Chinese labor costs.
This increased economic activity, and the consequent higher rise in energy demand, has resulted in serious problems of air pollution in several Chinese cities. For example Beijing, the capital, often has emergency air pollution levels in winter, due to the higher energy demand caused by the use of heating that is mainly powered by coal energy plants.

Answer:
Carthage's conquering of Saguntum, which was a Roman ally
Explanation:
Rome and Carthage had been in constant war since the First Punic War in the early 3rd Century. And with the victory of the Romans in the sea, Carthage was left with no other choice but to look for any land to capture.
Hannibal, leader of the Carthaginians, led an attack on the town of Saguntum which was an ally of Roma. This event led to the retaliation of Rome to attack Carthage, leading to the Second Punic War.
