Final answer:

The exercises provided relate to historical events such as Jefferson's Declaration of Independence being influenced by John Locke's theories, the unsuccessful economic pressures imposed by Jefferson to deal with Britain and France, and Sir Walter Raleigh's attempt to colonize Roanoke.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question regarding the circumstances leading up to a camping trip in the mountains does not correlate with the material provided. Instead, the exercises and text snippets pertain to historical figures like Jefferson and John Locke, Sir Walter Raleigh, the concept of American attitudes toward wilderness, and a brief overview of Wordsworth's life. Among the given exercises and historical excerpts, it is worth noting:

  • John Locke's influence on Jefferson in crafting the Declaration of Independence is true, as reflected in Exercises 8.1.1 and in the 'Test Yourself' section. Jefferson drew upon Locke's theories of natural rights and government as a social contract.
  • Jefferson's efforts to use economic pressure to solve problems with Britain and France, as indicated in Exercise 11.1.3, were unsuccessful; this method did not yield the desired peaceful resolutions.
  • It is true that Sir Walter Raleigh was behind the attempt to colonize Roanoke, according to Exercise 4.2.1.

The other texts offer narrative descriptions and do not directly answer any true/false historical claims.
