Here are the answers to your questions: Step 1: Answer to Question 27. Problems faced by people living around lakes and rivers include: • Risk of flooding during heavy rains or increased water levels. • Increased prevalence of waterborne diseases like cholera and malaria due to stagnant water or poor sanitation. Step 2: Answer to Question 28. Problems facing people living in mountainous areas include: • Difficulty in transportation and communication due to rugged terrain. • Risk of landslides and soil erosion, especially during heavy rainfall. Step 3: Answer to Question 29. Passengers travelling on water can protect themselves by: • Wearing life jackets at all times. • Ensuring the vessel is not overloaded and is in good condition. Step 4: Answer to Question 30. People in mountainous areas construct winding roads because: • Winding roads (also known as switchbacks or hairpins) help to reduce the gradient of the road, making it less steep and safer for vehicles to ascend and descend. • They allow roads to navigate around obstacles and follow the natural contours of the terrain, minimizing the need for extensive cutting and filling of the landscape.
