They have several shelters that are sturdy. Last year, however, floods came and took many of their large animals and rained out their crops. Some of the family died from starvation. They are replanting this year.

Answer 5

According to the excerpt, poor weather may lead to an unsuccessful harvest. The floods that occurred last year damaged their crops and took away their large animals. Floods are a result of poor weather conditions, and their impact on the farm led to a loss of crops and animals. This suggests that unfavorable weather conditions, such as flooding, can negatively affect the success of the harvest.
