Answer 1

Find the explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Sudanese people operate a patriarchal society where the men are seen as the providers in the home and the women are seen as the homemakers who take care of chores in the home. These chores include cooking, taking care of the children, fetching water, etc.

"A Long Walk to Water" as the name implies should be a story detailing the troubles people in Sudan have to go through in order to access water. I can infer that women and girls would be particularly affected by this since their gender role involves chores such as fetching water for the family.
