 * 0 We certainly have a lot of study questions to review for our history exam. Yes, we do, but we're almost finished. We only have two more questions to go.**
 * Only two more questions? That's great. Let's get going on them, and we'll be finished preparing for this exam.... Now, what's the next question on the study list? The next question on the study list asks about famous historical places on the Outer Banks.**
 * The Outer Banks? Where're the Outer**
 * Banks?**
 * //•// Look at the map in the book. The Outer Banks are a series of islands stretching along the coast of North Carolina.**
 * Now, the question asks about famous historical places on the Outer Banks. Can you come up with any?**
 * //(man)// Urn, let's see. There's the Lost Colony on**
 * Roanoke.**
 * //(woman// 1) Can you see Roanoke Island on the map?**
 * That was where the Lost Colony was located.**
 * //(woman// 2) Wait a minute. The Lost Colony? What was the Lost Colony?**
 * //(man)// The Lost Colony was the group of settlers from England that landed on**
 * Roanoke Island in 1587. When a supply**
 * ship returned there three years later, the colonists had disappeared. To this day, no one knows what happened to them.**
 * OK, I think Roanoke Island is one good answer to a question about famous historical places on the Outer Banks. Now, what about Ocracoke Island? Isn't Ocracoke Island famous for something? AliI know about Ocracoke Island is that it's where Blackbeard had his hideout. Blackbeard, the pirate?**
 * Yes. Blackbeard had his hideout on Ocracoke Island, early in the eighteenth century. He used to move up and down the coast from his hideout on Ocracoke and attack ships and steal their goods. //OK,// so we've got historical places on Roanoke Island and Ocracoke Island for answers to the question. Can you come**
 * up with any other historical places on the**
 * Outer Banks?**
 * What about the Wright Brothers? Didn't they make their flights on the Outer Banks?**
 * Yes, it was at Kill Devil Hills, outside of Kitty Hawk, that the Wright Brothers made their flights.**
 * On December 7, 1903, they managed to get a power-driven plane in the air, for just a short time. But the plane was flying.**
 * Their first flight was only 12 seconds long. They tried four flights on the same day, and by the end of the day, they got the plane to stay up for 59 seconds, almost a full minute.**
 * //•// OK..I think we have enough**
 * information to answer that question. We've got historical places on Roanoke Island, Ocracoke Island, and Kitty Hawk.**
 * Iagree. Why don't we leave the question on the Outer Banks and move on?**
