When most people imagine an archetypal desert landscape-with its relentless sun, rippling sand and hidden oases-they often picture the Sahara. But 11,000 years ago, what we know today as the world's largest hot desert would've been unrecognizable. The now-dessicated northern strip of Africa was once green and alive, pocked with lakes, rivers, grasslands and even forests. So where did all that water go? The Sahara has long been subject to periodic bouts of humidity and aridity. These fluctuations are caused by slight wobbles in the tilt of the Earth's orbital axis, which in turn changes the angle at which solar radiation penetrates the atmosphere. At repeated intervals throughout Earth's history, there's been more energy pouring in from the sun during the West African monsoon season, and during those times-known as African Humid Periods-much more rain comes down over north Africa. a) Sahara will turn green again in some time, and humans cannot influence this b) Changes in the Earth's axis cause the changes of Sahara climate c) The deserts are produced by the changes of the Earth's axis d) The water reducing caused Sahara to become a desert

People have considered the possibility that the missing colonists could have assimilated into nearby Native American tribes since at least 1605. If this integration was successful, the assimilated colonists would gradually exhaust their European supplies (ammunition, clothing) and discard European culture (language, style of dress, agriculture) as Algonquian lifestyle became more convenient. Colonial era Europeans observed that many people removed from European society by Native Americans for substantial periods of time-even if captured or enslaved-were reluctant to return; the reverse was seldom true. Therefore, it is reasonable to postulate that, if the colonists were assimilated, they or their descendants would not seek reintegration with subsequent English settlers. a) The English colonists most certainly assimilated into Native American tribes, leaving their culture behind b) The Native American culture is superior to English, as a little few Englishmen returned once assimilated c) The English colonists assimilated with the Native Americans because their supplies of clothes, ammunition etc., exhausted d) Once integrated into another culture, assimilated people feel disdain to their roots.
