Answer:
Urban commuting evolved to mass and rapid transit in the late 1800s.
Explanation:
The Industrial Revolution led to commuting. Before that most people lived and worked in the countryside. Travel was rarely needed and it was expensive. However, throughout centuries the concept of commuting has existed and improved till today.
By the late 1800s, people needed a form of mass transit to make commuting efficient. In 1867, elevated railroads were created above urban neighborhoods, laying the groundwork for the first form of rapid transit. After that in 1888 the world's first electric streetcar was used in commuting. Each streetcar was powered by multiple-unit control, allowing for greater speed and acceleration.

Explanation:
The "containment policy" was the U.S. approach to containing, or preventing, the spread of Communism after World War II. The idea was to make other countries prosperous enough to avoid the temptation of communism.
An early test of containment came in Greece and Turkey. In 1946, a civil war broke out in Greece, pitting Communist groups against the British-supported government. At the same time, the Soviet Union was pressuring Turkey to allow it to build naval bases on its northwestern coast, thereby giving the Soviet Black Sea Fleet easy access to the Mediterranean. When Great Britain announced it no longer had the resources to help Greece and Turkey meet the threats to their independence, the United States stepped in. President Truman asked Congress for $400 million in military and economic aid for Greece and Turkey in March 1947. Truman cited the United States' obligation to back free peoples who were resisting control by an armed minority or outside pressures. This policy, known as the Truman Doctrine, appeared to work: The Communists were defeated in the Greek Civil War in October 1949; and the foreign aid helped strengthen the Turkish economy.
Possible flooding of low lying areas
<span>Widespread coastal flooding is expected if several degrees of warming is sustained for millennia. Rising sea level is caused by Global warming. Global warming on the other hand is caused by pollution caused by greenhouse gases. One of the most obvious effects of rising sea level is the flooding of low lying areas, along the coastlines.</span>
The answer is 2003
because i researched the to make sure the answer was right
Maybe because cars were not invented at the time, or cars were invented, but they were too expensive for most people. (You didn't really specify what time period.)
