Answer:

It shows how the camper meets all the author's travel needs.

Explanation:

<em>Travels With Charley</em> is a travelogue written by John Steinbeck where he travels around America from his personal desire to know more about the country. Moreover, he wanted to do this out of the desire to learn more about the country his works are based on and the very source of his inspiration for these works.

The given passage from the book provides the details of what he wanted in for his travel plans. He knew he needed <em>"a tough, fast, comfortable vehicle, mounting a camper top" </em>which also has all the basic necessities for traveling purpose. Thus, the descriptive detail like<em> "a little house with double bed, a four-burner stove, a heater, refrigerator and lights operating on butane, a chemical toilet, closet space, storage space, windows screened against insects"</em> shows how the camper has all the travel needs of the author.

How would farmers help their neighbors keep their homes when they could not repay their bank loans
kow [346]

Answer:

The correct answer is, Farmers made sure that the highest bids that the bank received when auctioning their homes were pennies.

Explanation:

When people mortgage their properties or precious materials to banks, in order to get loans, and are unable to pay the loans, then banks sell their properties or precious materials to get their money back. They usually sell the mortgage at a good price to have their loans recovered. So farmers made sure that the people who came for auctioning of the houses offer pennies, so that banks won't sell the homes at so low price. In this way, farmers could help their neighbors keep their homes.
