The correct answers are 1) to gain territory in the Pacific, 2) to move closer to Japan, and 5) to weaken Japanese forces.

The aims of the allies' island hopping strategy were to gain territory in the Pacific, to move closer to Japan, and to weaken Japanese forces.

During World War II, the Allied Forces under the leadership of the United States implemented a military strategy called island hopping. The goal of the strategy was taking over a Japanese island to establish a military base there in order to have a better launching point to attack another island. The Leapfrogging strategy, another name for the island hopping strategy was key to allies to dominate important Japanese positions.

the correct answer is "pioneers carried all of their possessions on long and dangerous trails".

the first wave of pioneers travelled in 1842. they were merely 100 people. the next year that sum climbed to 1000 men, women, and children. these people travelled around 2,000 miles to oregon in the hopes of a better life. although the first part of the trip didn't present many obstacles, as time and miles went by they learnt that threat came from simple things, like becoming ill due to unclean water or bad food.

the weather didn't much, as wagons couldn't protect them from storms. as they travelled through the desert, the intense heat caused wood to shrink. their own lips abscessed and split because of the dry air. the only cure for this was to rub axle grease on their lips.

even crossing rivers was dangerous. sometimes wheels were damaged by unseen rocks on shallow water. mud didn't much either. pioneers were afraid of indian attacks, but there aren't many records of fights between pioneers and native americans. accidents happened because of negligence, exhaustion, guns, and bad weather.

history says that 1 of 10 pioneers who travelled to oregon didn't survive the journey. diseases spread fastly because they didn't have doctors and medical care was ofently improvised. one of the most deadly diseases they came upon was cholera, which became a worldwide pandemia.
