Questions l-10

hecipitation, commonly referred to as rainfall, is a measure of the quantity of water in theform of either rain, hail, or snow which reaches the ground. The average annual precipitationover the whole of the United States is thirty-six inches. It should be understood horveve& that

Line a foot of snow is not equal to a foot of precipitation. A gcneral formula for computing the pre-t 5) cipitation of snowfall is that ten inches of snow is equal to one inch of prccipitation. In New

York State, for example, twenty inches of snow in one year would be rccorded as only twoinches of precipitation, Forty inches of rain would be recorded as forty inches of precipitation.The total annual precipitation would be recorded as forty+wo inches.

The amount of precipitation is a combined result of several factors, including location, al-rc) drude, proximiry to the sea, and the direction of prevailing winds. Most of the precipitation in

the United States is brought originally by prevailing winds from the Pacific Ocean, the Gulf ofMexico, the Atlantic Ocean, and the Great Lakes. Because these prevailing winds generallycome from the West, the Pacific Coast rcceives more annual precipitation than the AtlanticCoast. Along the Pacific Coast itself, however, altitude causes some diversity in rainfall. The

I5l rnountain ranges of the United States, especially the Rocky Mountain Range and the Ap-palachian Mountain Range, influence the amount of precipitation in their areas. East of theRocky Mountains, the annual precipitation decreases substantially from that west of:.theRocky Mountains. The precipiution north of the Appalachian Mountains is about 40 percentless than that south of the Appalachian Mountains.

Questions 2l-30

During the nineteenth century, women in the United States organized and participated in alarge number of reform movements, including movements to reorlganizc the pnron system,improve education, ban Ore sale of alcohol, and, most importantly, to free thi slaves. Some

Une women saw similarities in the social status of women and slaves. Women tike Elizabeth Cady(5) Stanton and Lucy Stone were feminists and abolitionists who supported the rights of both

women and blacks. A riumber of male abolitionists, including William Lloyd Garrison andWendell Philips, also supported the rights of women to speak and participate equally:with menin antislavery activities. Probably more than any other movement, abolitionism offeredwomen a previously denied entry into politics. They became involved primarily in order to

( I0) better their living conditions and the conditions of others.When the Civil War ended in 1865, the Fourtecnth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Con-

stitution adopted in 1868 and 1870 granted citizenship and suffrage to blacks but not towomen. Discouraged but resolved, feminists influenced more and more women to demand theright to vote. In 1869 the Wyoming Territory had yielded to demands by feminists, but eastern

( 15) states resisted more stubbornly than before. A women's suffrage bill had been presented toevery Congress since t 878 but it continually failed to pass until 1920, when thi NineteenthAmendment granted women the right to vote.

settlement became tbe most heterogeneous of the Ncirth American colonies. By 1637, the forthad expanded into the village of Ncw Amsrcrdam, and other small communities had grom

( rc) up anrund it, including New Haadem and Stuyvesant's Bouwery and New Amsterdam beganto prosper, developing characteristics of religious and linguistic tolerance unusual for thetimes. By 1643, it was reported ttrat eighteen differcnt language.s werc heard in New Amster-dam alone. I

Among the multilingual settlers was a large group of English colonists from Connecticut( 15) and Massachusetts who supported the English King's claim to all of New Netherlands set out

in a charter that gave the territory to his brother fames, the Duke of York. In 1664, when theEnglish sent a formidable fleet of warships into tlie New Amsterdam harbor, Dutch governorPeter Stuyvesant surrendercd without resistance.

When the English acquircd the island, the village of New Arnsterdam was rcnamed New(20) York in honor of the Duke. By the onset of the Revolution, New York City was already a

bustling commercial center. After the war, it was selecrcd as the first capital of the UnitedStates. Although the government was eventually moved, first to Philadelphia and then toWashington, D.C., New York City has remained the unofhcial commercial capital.

During the 1690s, New York became a haven for pirates who conspired with leading mer-(25) chants to exchange supplies for their ships in return for a share in the plunder. As a colony,

New York exchanged many agricultural products for English manufactured goods. In addition,rade with the West Indies prospued. Three centuries after his initial trade with the Indians,Minuit's tiny investment was worth more than seven billion dollars.
