Answer 1

(1) We can't imagine the ancient civilization of Egypt without the great Nile River. (2) Some would even
say that Egypt was the gift of the Nile. (3) The Nile is the world's longest river. (4) It flows from deep in
central Africa to the Nile River Delta on the Mediterranean Sea. (5) It also has the habit of flooding over its
banks once a year. (6) When this happens, rich silt is deposited along the riverbanks. (7) As a result, the
soil of the Nile Valley is excellent for farming. (8) Without the Nile floods, it's unlikely that ancient Egypt
would have lasted for thousands of years.
