Mysterious Neighbors
HELPPPP MEEE


“How can something that old be right here in Illinois?” Rob asked himself. He had been using the Internet to research lost civilizations for a history project. Rob found a place called Cahokia.




He was amazed to find that Cahokia was about two hours from his home! Between 20,000 to 40,000 people once lived there and built 120 mounds, yet researchers disagree about the purpose of the mounds. The Cahokia people disappeared and left behind no written records.




Rob read that long ago Cahokia covered 4,000 acres and was the largest city north of Mexico. Living there were farmers, hunters, craftsmen, traders, and priests. Most researchers think that the city was settled before the year 1000. What really surprised Rob was that everyone abandoned the city about 300 years later, about 100 years before Columbus or any other Europeans arrived in North America.




“Why would people build a big city and then abandon it?” Rob wondered. He was excited to tell his parents about what he had learned. They had heard about Cahokia but hadn’t been there. His mom suggested that they visit it the following weekend.




On Saturday morning, they stopped at the Visitor Center. A model of the ancient city showed the mounds and hundreds of homes. Next, Rob wanted to explore the huge Monks Mound, which was ten stories high. Rob wondered how many trips it took to haul enough dirt to make a mound that big.


Several flights of steps are built into the dirt mound.


The family climbed 156 steps to the top of the mound. The view was astounding. It was more amazing than Rob had expected.




“I can see parts of a wooden wall around the city,” Rob said. “Maybe the people who lived here were attacked and killed by their enemies.”




“Maybe,” his mom agreed. “The ruler of Cahokia probably lived on this mound.”




“But no one knows for sure that this ruler existed,” Rob said. “Why didn’t the Cahokia people leave behind any records?”




His dad explained. “Long ago, many groups didn’t have a written language, so they couldn’t record their history. Instead, parents told stories to their children, and the children told the same stories to their own kids. That’s how they tried to preserve their history, yet those stories are lost now.”




“That’s too bad,” Rob said, “because I’d really like to know more about the people who lived here. After all, they were our neighbors!”

Answers

Answer:

d. Increasing porosity and increasing permeability lead to increased production in an aquifer.

Explanation:

Underground aquifers are permeable geological formations that allow water to accumulate inside the soil. Depending on how water circulates within the soil, there are three primary types of aquifers: porous, karstic and fissural.

In addition to supplying sufficient water to keep surface watercourses stable (production function), aquifers also help prevent their overflow by absorbing excess heavy rainwater (regularization function).

Answer:

Decreasing porosity and increasing permeability lead to increased production in an aquifer.

My story is going to be a true story, I wanted to write mine about my trip to Boston but I don’t have time to do it myself. I already have at least 5 or 6 projects due this week and next week.
Information for my topic is that I went on a freedom trail tour there, it was in 2021 in late summer, and I also went to the Boston public library, i had to different stores because I chose to go with my mom and sister instead of staying home with my dad and I went literally at the last minute.
Thank you if you actually answer my question.

Answers

Answer:

In the late summer of 2021, I went on a trip to Boston, Massachusetts, with my mother and sister. I decided to go last minute, while my father chose to stay home. My trip consisted of going to a freedom trail, the Boston Public Library, and multiple shops, including tourist shops. My trip to the Freedom trail was amazing, I was awestruck by what the city looked like. I enjoyed being outdoors and seeing multiple things, such as the Bunker Hill Monument, the USS Constitution Museum, etc. The trail was worth seeing even though I was tired by the end of it because I got to see many historical sites. Going to some of the shops was also enjoyable because I got to see many people and many things. I was glad I got to get a souvenir marking my journey to Boston for the first time. By the end of the trip, I was glad I choose to go rather than stay at home, especially after being home after the pandemic and such. I hope that one day I might go there again because there is still much to see and I was truly astonished by Boston itself. There is still considerably more to Boston and I would love to see its culture in the future.

I have had many good memories so far in my life time, the best memory that I can remember is the time when I went to Wild Adventures. On the last week of eighth grade our school took an end of the year trip to Wild Adventures, a theme park. At first I was not all thrilled about going; however, I had fun in the end. The reason I wasn’t really happy about going was because I got put into a group with people I didn’t really like, for example one person in my group mischievously ate the pizza slice I paid four dollars for, it’s like flushing money down a toilet. As Juniter Hammon proclaimed, “But this will not do, God will certainly punish you for stealing and for being unfaithful. Another reason is that I showed a little bravado when I was scared to ride the rides at first. However, by the end of the day I rode cool rides and had a lot of fun.

It begins with planning for the trip. Precious groups are picked and a list of necessary items is created. The group I had originally planned to join was full and I had to join a group with people that I never really talked too. One per...
