What makes a spot like Death Valley or Moab or Organ Pipe Monument so all-fired dry? Or for that matter a huge region like the S

ahara? Or the Taklimakan Desert of western China? Is it purely fortuitous that one geographical area-say the Amazon Basin-should receive buckets of moisture while another area not far away-the Atacama-Peruvian Desert-gets so precious little? The answer to that is no. Not at all fortuitous. Three different geophysical factors combine, generally at least two in each case, to produce the world?s various zones of drastic and permanent drought: (1) high pressure systems of air in the horse latitudes, (2) shadowing mountains, and (3) cool ocean currents.
Which of the following best states the question posed by the paragraph?

A) What makes Death Valley so especially dry?

B) Which geophysical factor is most important in the creation of a desert?

C) How long does it take to produce a desert?

D) What factors lead to the creation of a desert?

Which 2 lines from john miltons paradise lost provide clues to his purpose in writing the epic poem?
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

<em>I may assert th’ Eternal Providence,</em>

<em>And justifie the wayes of God to men.</em>

Explanation:

John Milton's epic narrative poem "Paradise Lost" is a retelling of the Biblical story of the fall of man from God's grace and from the garden of Eden. This poem was written by Milton as an effort to retell the story for the better understanding of the people.

Book I of the text provides the prologue of the epic poem where Milton states that "I may assert th’ Eternal Providence,/And justifie the wayes of God to men". These lines from line 25 and 26 seems to be the main purpose of this work. Invoking to the supreme to "aid to (his) adventrous Song", he continues to state his purpose, that he had wanted to let the world understand more easily the fall of man from grace, and out of the Garden of Eden.

Thus, the two lines that provide clues to his purpose in writing the epic poem will be

<em>I may assert th’ Eternal Providence,</em>

<em>And justifie the wayes of God to men.</em>
