Archaeologists have found that people lived on the North American continent many years ago--long before all the glaciers had melted from this land. Many archaeologists think these people came to this land by crossing the Bering Strait between Asia and Alaska. Only fifty-six miles lie between the two great land masses. The greatest distance between the tiny islands that lie between the land masses is only twenty-five miles, making a crossing at that point possible. Although no one knows exactly how and when the earliest settlers came to North America, the reason why they came is known--they came to find food. As nomads, the early inhabitants of North America were accustomed to moving from place to place in search of food for their large herds of animals. During the winter these nomads would set up camps and waited for spring before moving on. In the spring and summer they would lead their herds to good grazing land. Eventually, these people crossed over from Asia onto the North American continent. They migrated as far as the east coast and as far south as the tip of South America. Artifacts from this era show that the tools people used were intended for hunting animals, including the mammoth, the ground sloth, the tapir, the caribou, and the bison. The nomads depended upon these animals for both food and clothing. Make into a summary please.

The major was a little man with upturned mustaches. he had been in the war in libya and wore two wound-stripes. he said that if the thing went well he would see that i was decorated. i said i hoped it would go well but that he was too kind. i asked him if there was a big dugout where the drivers could stay and he sent a soldier to show me. i went with him and found the dugout, which was very good. the drivers were with it and i left them there. what effect does hemingway’s limited use of adjectives have? it slows down the narration by interrupting the action. it makes the few descriptive words he does use more vivid and forceful. it makes the narrator seem powerless and insincere. it prevents the readers from filling in the details with their own experiences.
