Read the excerpt from the time traveler’s guide to elizabethan england. the following examples show how famine hits the cumberland parish of greystoke. here "a poor fellow destitute of succor” is found in the highway and is carried to the constable’s house, where he dies. a miller’s daughter dies in her bed, weakened from lack of food. a beggar boy from the scottish borders is found writhing in agony in the road and dies soon afterward "in great misery.” another "poor, hunger-starved beggar boy” is found in the street and carried into a house, where he dies. a widow is discovered dead in a barn. a four-year-old local boy dies "for want of food and means,” as does his mother. a total of sixty-two people die in greystoke in just one year—during which time the parish sees no marriages and only three children conceived. you hear the story of a man leaving his home and walking hundreds of miles in search of work or food and returning after a couple of months with sufficient money only to find that his wife and children have all since died. the details from this excerpt best support the inference that death from starvation was common in elizabethan england. very few people died of starvation in elizabethan england. communities were shocked by the deaths from starvation. communities tried to prevent the deaths from starvation.

Which part of the story shows how kiara and tanya's differences affect their friendship? kiara and tanya were the best of friends. when they were 10 years old, they always went everywhere together. all their friends knew that if they found one of them, they would find the other. anyone who didn't know them thought that they were twins because both kiara and tanya had long, silky red hair and pale complexions. they were even similar in height and build. they were more like sisters than friends. but as similar as they were in appearance, they were just as different when it came to their personalities. this difference didn't affect their friendship, at least not for a long time. kiara always got out and participated in activities and competitions. tanya was happiest when reading a book at home. kiara was outgoing and talkative. tanya was quiet and shy. kiara was popular, and people were drawn to her because of her ability to make quick friends. tanya hardly had any friends besides kiara. as they grew older, kiara managed to make a large group of friends. tanya, on the other hand, still remained shy and reserved. this difference in their personalities eventually caused a rift between the two friends. tanya would refuse invitations to parties and movies that kiara invited her to. she just didn't want to hang out with people she didn't know that well. kiara couldn't understand why. she thought tanya disliked her friends. eventually, kiara and tanya both realized that they had outgrown one another. they still remained friends, but they were not as close as they once had been.
