Question

. Read the following passage carefully

1. All along a 450-mile stretch of west coast America is the home of the tallest trees in the world. Once, in this narrow hinterland of the Pacific Coast, from central California to southern Oregon, were two million acres of these trees, the Coast Redwood. Today there are just a few hundred acres of them in Redwood Belt’s scattering of State Parks, protected forest reserves amidst which are stands of the giants.

2. About 25 miles due south of San Jose and the heart of Silicon Valley is one of the smaller of these stands, just 40 acres in the midst of the 4650-acre Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park. And there I found myself one morning not so long ago peering up to spot the tops of trees that seemed to be touching the skies. All I got was a crick in the neck. A tip for other Escapists’: Stick to looking at the thick and rough-barked trunks.

3. But even looking at a trunk when you try to grab a view of The Giant’s trunk from close can be quite a challenge. The Giant, the star of the Park, has a trunk with a circumference of over 50 feet and a diameter of 17 feet. Maybe you can, but I couldn’t take it all in. Nor could I come anywhere near taking in the whole 275 feet of the Giant’s height. Once the tallest Redwood, it lost its title when a storm several years ago knocked down 75 feet of its top to bring it to its present height. But it’ll need the mother of all storms for its record of being the oldest tree in the park – an estimated 2000 – plus years old – to be knocked down.

4. You wonder at such a giant growing from a tiny seed; 100,000 seeds to a pound will give you an idea of how tiny! You wonder too about the marvel of a root system that sinks only six to twelve feet holding up such giants till the Range you are talking to explain that the roots spread literally and intertwine with the roots of other Redwoods to create a carpet.

10. What is a tip for other Escapists?​

Answer 1

Answer:

You don’t need the late Tommy Vance to tell you that prison isn’t a particularly fun place to be locked up. Even if you do get a pint of foaming nut brown ale every now and again.

This beginner’s guide is intended to get you familiar with some of the basics you’ll need in The Escapists. It won’t give you step-by-step walkthroughs of the different prisons, but it will spoil a few of the crafting recipes that I consider to be essential knowledge. There’s also a link to a full list of crafting recipes at the end if you want to know all of that.
