Q1: Do Europe or North America have any tropical rainforests?

[Answer]

On this map of the world, we have shown the tropical rainforests in green.

You will see that they are found in a narrow strip. Notice that the biggest area is in South America. This rainforest surrounds the River Amazon.

There is a big area of rainforest in West Africa, too. This is close to the River Congo.
