Question 3 :
H2>Answer A: True.
In Europe, the country that uses the bidet the most is Italy. There is even a law in Italy that says that every home has to have a bidet in it.
Question 4
What Is a Bidet?
Question 4 :
Answer is something you use in the bathroom
Bidets were invented in France over four centuries ago.
Anyone who has done international traveling has likely seen that bathrooms look different from place to place. Sometimes, they can look so different that it takes people a lot of work to figure out how to use the bathroom properly. There are some countries where a bidet is popular. A bidet is frequently described as an alternative to toilet paper, but that is not necessarily the case. In reality, a bidet is simply a device near a toilet (or attached to it) that can be used for people to clean their bottoms after they use the bathroom. Can You Get a Bidet in the United States?
Yes, it is possible for someone to get a bidet in the United States, but it is not necessarily common. There are plenty of people in the United States who do not even know what a bidet is, but there are some people who have become more interested in it during the past few years. It takes some time to get used to a bidet, and it is important to find a bidet that allows you to adjust the water pressure to meet your needs.
Is It Better to Use a Bidet Than Toilet Paper?
It is not necessarily better to use a bidet, but in Europe it is generally agreed that they are far more hygienic than simply using toilet paper. There are plenty of people who use both toilet paper and a bidet, but some people believe that they can get themselves clean after using the bathroom using just a bidet. One of the major benefits is that you would not necessarily have to use toilet paper anymore, but a downside is that you would use more water.
Ultimately, it is a matter of personal preference, and there are lots of people who experiment with both. Keep in mind that both toilet paper and bidets come in different styles, so it is important to find the right one to meet your needs.
Most bidets have customizable spray options, making it easy to control the pressure and spray angle so water only goes where needed (in other words, you won't get soaked). Still, it's normal to have some water left over after you wash.
Question 5
Should bathers shower at public swimming pools and spas prior to jumping in?
Question 5 :
Answer: a. True
Better yet, make #a A BIG YES!
Bathers at public swimming pools and spas should shower first to to remove organic material (e.g., sweat, lotions, fecal matter) that can increase the risk of recreational water illness and the formation of disinfection by-products. There is a reason why public pools use an abundance in chlorine. The pools and spas are not your own private bath tub.
You’ll find that North Americans are considered to be somewhat dirty by Europeans, and, if the staff notices you haven’t showered first, there’s a chance you’ll be issued a one-way ticket back to the Canadian provinces or the U.S. states.

Less than 10% of Americans DO NOT brush their teeth every day.
Question 6 :
Answer is FALSE
If you selected True, you need to brush up on your world states. So, what percent of Americans don't brush their teeth? Since it's so deeply ingrained into almost everyone's routine, it might surprise you to learn that about 20% of people aren't brushing each morning and evening’

Question 5
Glacial fed rivers, streams and lakes are clear and safe to drink.
Question 5 :
Answer: b. False
Glacial fed rivers, streams and lakes are not clear or safe to drink.
Glacial tills can include rock flour, clay, silt, sand, gravel, cobbles and boulders depending on the source rock, the mode of deformation, the mode and distance of transportation and the mode. of . Glacial flour is that smallest size of sediment (much smaller than sand) and is responsible for the milky, colored water in the rivers, streams, and lakes that are fed by glaciers
If you were to drink straight glacial water, you would likely be consuming fecal matter and bacteria with it. Additionally, the U.S. National Parks Service (NPS) recommends against drinking water from a natural source that hasn't been filtered or purified.

Question 1
Freshwater lakes hold the majority of the world’s drinkable water. Name the world's largest freshwater lake in the world.
A
Lake Baikal: Siberia, Russia
B
Lake Superior: Great Lakes of North America
C
Lake Tanganyika: Africa
D
Lake Victoria: Africa
E
Lake Washington: Seattle, Washington, US
Question 1 :
Answer: Lake Baikal: Siberia, Russia
Lake Baikal is located in Russia in the southern region of Siberia, and is the world's largest freshwater lake by both volume (22995 km3) and depth (1741m), containing 20% of the world's fresh surface water. Lake Baikal hides its vast waters under a relatively small surface area (31500 km2). The lake is home to over 1,700 plant and animal species
Lake Superior (82,100 km2) is the world’s largest freshwater lake by surface area, the third-largest by volume, and the largest, deepest, and coldest of the Great Lakes of North America. It is also Canada’s largest lake, bordering Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Michigan in the United States. The Great Lakes Waterway passes across Lake Superior, which means “Big Sea Water,” and ferries commodities and supplies over the water. It is, nevertheless, one of the most dangerous lakes to swim in on the planet, as it can reach depths of more than 400 metres in some areas and is prone to riptides.
Lake Tanganyika (32,600 km2) in Africa is the world’s longest, second-oldest, and second-deepest freshwater lake, with a name that means “great lake spreading out like a plain.” It is also the second-largest lake in terms of surface area. Lake Tanganyika flows across Tanzania, Burundi, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Zambia, eventually emptying into the Atlantic Ocean. Swimming in the lake, which is one of the Rift Valley’s lakes, is not suggested because Nile crocodiles are known to lurk beneath the surface in some areas.
Lake Victoria (68,870 km2), also one of Africa’s Great Lakes, is the continent’s largest freshwater lake, spanning Tanzania, Uganda, and Kenya. It’s also the world’s largest tropical lake and the second-largest freshwater lake in terms of surface area, trailing only Lake Superior. Lake Victoria, the Nile River’s major reservoir, is home to over 200 different species of fish, including Tilapia, which provide a source of income for thousands of people who live along and around its shores.
Lake Washington with the exception of a few commercial and industrial developments (e.g., Kenmore Air at the north end and the Boeing Company in the south Lake Washington is the largest lake in Washington State west of the Cascade Mountains, with a surface area of 22,138 acres.
Question 2
Hawaii is the rainiest state in the US.
A
True
B
False
Question 2 :
Answer: True
Hawaii overall is the rainiest state in the US, with a state-wide average of 63.7 inches (1618 millimetres) of rain a year. But few places in Hawaii fit the state's average.
Many weather stations on the islands record less than 20 inches (508 mm) of rainfall a year while others receive well over 100 inches (2540 mm).
Hawaii's climate is dominated by moisture-laden air rolling in off the ocean that releases massive amounts of water on an island's windward side, while the other side enjoys a rain shadow. On the Big Island of Hawaii for instance, Papaikou Mauka near the east coast gets 202 inches (5130 mm) of rain a year. But rainfall drops to just 11 inches (280 mm) annually at Kona Village on the island's western shore.
Mt. Waialeale on Kauai not only gets the most rain in Hawaii, but it's also the rainiest place in the United States. A weather station on the mountain from 1931 to 1960 averaged 460 inches (11,684 millimetres) of rainfall a year.
Louisiana: 60 inches of rain per year Mississippi: 57 inches of rain per year Alabama: 56 inches of rain per year Washington: 42.0 inches of rain per year
Question 3
What was the cause of the Dust Bowl or the Dirty Thirties in the American and Canadian prairie lands from 1930 to 1936?
A
Decades without crop rotation
B
Deep plowing of virgin topsoil
C
Drought
D
Dust storms
E
All the above
Question 3 :
Answer: All the above
The Dust Bowl or the Dirty Thirties in the American and Canadian prairie lands from 1930 to 1936 was caused by severe drought and dust storms, coupled with decades of extensive farming without crop rotation, fallow fields, cover crops or other techniques to prevent erosion, and deep plowing. This resulted in major ecological, agricultural and financial damage with banks closing.
With natural anchors to keep the soil in place, it dried, turned to dust, and blew away eastward and southward in large dark clouds. At times the clouds blackened the sky reaching all the way to East Coast cities such as New York and Washington, D.C.

Barentsburg, Svalbard (also known as Spitsbergen), Norway
C
Hualien City, Taiwan
D
Tenochtitlan, Mexico
E
Yuma, Arizona, US
Question 4 :
Answer: Arica, Chile
The place with the lowest precipitation on earth is Arica, a port city in Chile, with 0.6 mm annually, and being that it is on the northern edge of the Atacama Desert, the driest non-polar desert in the world we are not surprised. In the USA, the state with the lowest rainfall is the Nevada with 9.5 inches (241 mm), of actual rain given that precipitation measurements for snow are given separately for the Nevada. The driest city in the USA is Yuma in Arizona, having only 2.65 inches (67.31 mm) of rainfall annually It is also the sunniest city in the world, receiving about 4,015 hours of sunshine out of possible 4,456 hours of daylight each year.

Dylan Farrow has been telling the same story since she was seven years old: One afternoon in 1992, she says her adoptive father, Woody Allen, brought her to the attic of her mother, Mia Farrow’s, Connecticut home and — out of sight of the rest of the family — molested her. In the intervening three decades, her account has not faltered. It has remained consistent since she first shared it with therapists, then police, as a child; when she aired it in a New York Times op-ed in 2014, and in the Los Angeles Times in 2017, in a televised interview with CBS in 2018, and now, in a four-part documentary from HBO: Allen v. Farrow, an exhaustively detailed investigation into the abuse allegations and subsequent custody battle that kneecapped Farrow’s career and have only recently begun to create consequences for Allen.
Allen has always adamantly denied Dylan’s allegations. He did not return interview requests for the documentary and described it after the fact as a “hatchet job riddled with falsehoods” and a “shoddy hit piece.” His public statements have followed the same formula since the early ’90s: He maintains that Farrow, his former partner of 12 years, orchestrated a smear campaign after discovering his affair with her 21-year-old adopted daughter, Soon-Yi Previn, and coached Dylan through a false allegation of sexual assault. “I never molested my daughter,” he said in the wake of Dylan’s 2018 interview with CBS, “as all investigations concluded a quarter of a century ago.”
