Q: Question: "Higher levels of CO2 lead to two things, world temperature gradient north to south being flat, and?" Context: "The climate of the Cretaceous is less certain and more widely disputed. Higher levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere are thought to have caused the world temperature gradient from north to south to become almost flat: temperatures were about the same across the planet. Average temperatures were also higher than today by about 10C. In fact, by the middle Cretaceous, equatorial ocean waters (perhaps as warm as 20 C in the deep ocean) may have been too warm for sea life,[dubious discuss][citation needed] and land areas near the equator may have been deserts despite their proximity to water. The circulation of oxygen to the deep ocean may also have been disrupted.[dubious discuss] For this reason, large volumes of organic matter that was unable to decompose accumulated, eventually being deposited as "black shale"." Answer:
A: Average temperatures were also higher than today by about 10C

Q: Question: "Who named the village Apalchen" Context: "While exploring inland along the northern coast of Florida in 1528, the members of the Narvaez expedition, including Alvar Nunez Cabeza de Vaca, found a Native American village near present-day Tallahassee, Florida whose name they transcribed as Apalchen or Apalachen [a.pala.tn]. The name was soon altered by the Spanish to Apalachee and used as a name for the tribe and region spreading well inland to the north. Panfilo de Narvaez's expedition first entered Apalachee territory on June 15, 1528, and applied the name. Now spelled "Appalachian," it is the fourth-oldest surviving European place-name in the US." Answer:
A: Native American

Q: Question: "What comparison was made between China and Burma?" Context: "Francis Marcus of the International Federation of the Red Cross praised the Chinese rescue effort as "swift and very efficient" in Beijing on Tuesday. But he added the scale of the disaster was such that "we can't expect that the government can do everything and handle every aspect of the needs". The Economist noted that China reacted to the disaster "rapidly and with uncharacteristic openness", contrasting it with Burma's secretive response to Cyclone Nargis, which devastated that country 10 days before the earthquake." Answer:
A: China reacted to the disaster "rapidly and with uncharacteristic openness"

Q: Question: "what time period is mentioned last?" Context: "From 1920, Eisenhower served under a succession of talented generals Fox Conner, John J. Pershing, Douglas MacArthur and George Marshall. He first became executive officer to General Conner in the Panama Canal Zone, where, joined by Mamie, he served until 1924. Under Conner's tutelage, he studied military history and theory (including Carl von Clausewitz's On War), and later cited Conner's enormous influence on his military thinking, saying in 1962 that "Fox Conner was the ablest man I ever knew." Conner's comment on Eisenhower was, "[He] is one of the most capable, efficient and loyal officers I have ever met." On Conner's recommendation, in 192526 he attended the Command and General Staff College at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, where he graduated first in a class of 245 officers. He then served as a battalion commander at Fort Benning, Georgia, until 1927." Answer:
A:
1927
