What You Think is What You See




Questions
Answer each question in 3-5 sentences.:


1. If the maps around you showed the existence of the Northwest Passage, would you believe it? Why?
I don't believe that because at that time the map shouldn't be compeleted so that the people at that time didn't know where the right way it is.
2. If you were John Cabot and someone told you the Northwest Passage didn't exist. What would you say? What would you feel? How would you react?
I must say "You are kidding! That can't happen on the earth. " I will also ask him , "Have you ever seen that before?" Because what you think is what you see. "You can't see anything you like before you really see it."
3. Find a map by Humphrey Gilbert from 1582. What do you see in the picture? Explain.
The picture is on the top of the post , I don't know why it can't be put here at my home.
I saw that there were a little parts od land at that time , that means the people at that time didn't found each part of land. Most of the land were connected together. Almost everywhere was sea.
4. Why did the Northwest Passage suit the goals (agenda) of the Eurpean explorers and monarchs?
Because they have a lot of things to do. They need lands , money , food , etc. So they need to set up a plan and do these things together.
5. Feedback loops help us to see reality as a system. Can you think of an example of a feedback loop from your own life? Look at page 225 of your textbook to help you.

6. What did you learn so far about explorers and the colonization of Canada?
I have learned that many explorers from different countries had the same idea--to find a place and get on to it and make own people have a goos life. It's in order to colonization.
