Oh, come on, Henry. How can a lot of tourists cause great suffering in Sudan?? Tourists bring money and prosperity.

Is it possible you don't know the meaning of "influx?"

Whoa! How does an INCREASE in food production bring suffering?

Please look up any words you do not understand in a dictionary -- like Dictionary.com.

The correct answer is actually A) civil war lasting for more than a decade. To arrive at this answer, you would need to have some basic knowledge about Sudan and the challenges it has faced in recent history. Let me explain how to arrive at the correct answer:

1. Option A is plausible because Sudan experienced a civil war that began in the 1980s and lasted for more than two decades, until 2011. This war was primarily fought between the Sudanese government and various rebel groups, resulting in significant suffering and loss of life.

2. Option B, the influx of tourists to the region, is unrelated to the suffering in Sudan and does not align with the historical context. Tourism generally brings economic benefits rather than causing suffering.

3. Option C, an increase in food production during the past 20 years, is also unrelated to the suffering in Sudan. While food production could have a positive impact on alleviating suffering, there is no specific information provided to support this as the cause.

4. Option D, a decades-long war with Ghana, is incorrect since Sudan has never been involved in a war with Ghana. This option is factually incorrect.

Therefore, based on the given options, the best answer is A) civil war lasting for more than a decade, as it aligns with Sudan's historical context and the suffering that occurred as a result.
