b. first farm

Explanation:

For question 4:

• Jericho is one of the earliest continuously inhabited cities. Neolithic people there developed mud - bricks. Stone bricks were used in later more advanced masonry (like in some ancient Egyptian and Mesopotamian monumental buildings). Clay structures are too vague, and wooden planks were not a revolutionary building material in the Neolithic context of Jericho.

For question 5:

• Göbekli Tepe is an archaeological site in southeastern Turkey. It is widely regarded as one of the earliest (if not the earliest) known places of worship. It predates the development of farming (so it can't be the first farm), there is no strong evidence to suggest it was a trading center (no large - scale trade goods found in the context of a trading hub), and it lacks the characteristics of a city (like a large, permanent, diverse population with different social and economic functions).

Answer:

1. C. Mud bricks
2. A. First place of worship
