1- To find the answer to this question, you would need to read or research about the events that took place in the forest in the play "The Crucible" by Arthur Miller. In the play, Tituba was actually accused of practicing witchcraft along with the girls, rather than conjuring dead children. So the correct answer would be a. She danced with the girls.
2- In order to determine which option is not a possible motivation for later accusations of witchcraft, you would need to analyze the relationships and conflicts between the characters in the play. John Proctor's disapproval of Reverend Parris, Putnam's land dispute with Giles Corey, and Abigail's interest in John Proctor are all motivations for the accusations. Hale's statement that Betty is a witch, however, is not a motivation for later accusations. Therefore, the correct answer is d. Hale's statement that Betty is a witch.
3- To answer this question, you would need to recall the events in the play where Tituba is under duress and being questioned. Tituba confesses to several things but does not say that five women came with the devil. Therefore, the correct answer is d. five women came with the devil.
4- Giles Corey's statement about his wife reading strange books is motivated by a specific reason. To understand this, you would need to remember the context of the play. Giles Corey wants to ask about something he thinks is important, which is related to his wife's behavior. Therefore, the correct answer is c. Giles Corey wants to ask about something he thinks is important.
