1. How did Reconstruction improve opportunities for African Americans in the South?
a. Many became wealthy business owners. (Incorrect - While some African Americans did become successful business owners during Reconstruction, this was not the primary effect of the period.)
b. They could receive public education. (Correct - Reconstruction provided opportunities for African Americans to access public education, which was previously denied to them.)
c. Many became landowners. (Correct - Reconstruction allowed some African Americans to become landowners, primarily through the redistribution of land previously owned by Confederate sympathizers.)
d. They could vote freely without restrictions. (Correct - Reconstruction enacted laws and constitutional amendments that aimed to grant African Americans the right to vote without restrictions, although this right was not always fully realized in practice.)
Regarding the second question, I'll provide an assessment:
2. How did the Radical Republican Reconstruction plan affect life in South Carolina?
a. The law did not give African Americans equal protection. (Incorrect - The Radical Republican Reconstruction plan aimed to provide African Americans with equal protection under the law through constitutional amendments and legislation.)
b. The state gained the right to decide local matters. (Correct - The Radical Republican Reconstruction plan sought to strengthen the federal government's authority over the states, limiting the ability of states to decide certain matters autonomously.)
c. White males who participated in the war were permitted to hold public office. (Incorrect - The Radical Republican Reconstruction plan introduced measures to prevent ex-Confederate soldiers and officials from holding public office for a period.)
d. White males who supported the war could not vote. (Incorrect - The Radical Republican Reconstruction plan did not explicitly disenfranchise white males who supported the war, although it did introduce measures aimed at protecting the voting rights of African Americans.)
