Answer 1

1. I believe the answer is: B.It helps people interpret the past, understand the present, and prepare for the future.

Geographical occurrences (such as earthquakes) tend to possess several signs that make it possible for humans to predict future occurrences.  By analysing the occurrences in the past, we can predict when next one would occurs, the damage that it cause, and the things that we can do to survive.

2. I believe the answer is: Regions are always unchanging and distinct in nature.

Regions are constantly changing due to natural factors and the activities by organisms who live in it. For example, the rising temperature cause the ice to melt and ended the ice age (natural factors)  , or factories that built by humans made the water resources in a certain region become consumables  (activities caused by those who lived in the region)

3. I believe the answer is: c. the world in spatial terms

the world in spatial terms associated geographic tools to collect information of location, place, and region in order to organize and characterize them.  The characterization would make it easier for people to identify geological occurrence that happen in the past and enable us to make prediction of the occurrences that might occurs in the future.
