This paper aims to investigate the migrant experience in Levy's "Back to My Own Country: An Essay" and her short stories "The Diary" and "That Polite Way That English People Have". Levy's stories of migration blend fact with ction, where autobiography, history, social commentary and ction commingle. The stories manifest certain rewarding as well as negative aspects of migration in that they depict the migrant's desire to attain a fairy-tale world as well as the ironies of the migrant experience. In her narratives, Levy writes not only about her personal story as a second-generation migrant, her Jamaican as well as black-British heritage, her identity conict, racial awareness and racism, and gender bias, but she also gives information and her opinions on slavery, colonialism, the Caribbean migrants of the Windrush generation and the intermingled history of Britain and the Caribbean. Levy's works can also be regarded as a rewriting of history as she aims to uncover the lost history shared by the Caribbean and Britain, and remedy the amnesia. Levy's use of the motif of "reverse migration" in her narratives helps her achieve this aim, as she moves the story of the Caribbean British from the margin to the centre, as a compensation for the past.

Water transportation was crucial for the economical development of Mesopotamia. What evidence from the passage best supports thi
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

Raw materials arrived in bigger towns with great frequency, which meant that these towns and cities could grow and develop faster.

Explanation:

The given question is about the text <em>California and Mesopotamia: Similarities and Differences.</em>

The options you were given are the following:

  • Raw materials arrived in bigger towns with great frequency, which meant that these towns and cities could grow and develop faster.
  • Overland transportation at that time was painfully slow and clunky, via simple wheeled pushcarts, or pack animals such as donkeys and camels.
  • The canals provided a built-in transportation system for the Sumerian and Akkadian peoples who first settled the place.
  • These rivers had many different branches, tributaries, feeding into them, creating a vast network of streams and canals.

The correct option is the first one as it directly states that water transportation helped towns and cities develop faster, making it crucial for the economical development of Mesopotamia. The rest of the options do not.

The second states why overland transportation wasn't the best, why it made things harder. There is nothing about water transportation.

The third simply states that the canals provided the Sumerian and Akkadian peoples with a transportation system. It doesn't say why that's good, unlike the first one.

The fourth would be the worst option as it doesn't include any information about transportation systems.
