What is the first question?
What are your answers?
To answer these questions, we will analyze each option and eliminate the ones that are incorrect.
1. Which of the following acts was passed?
To find the answer, we need to understand the purpose and timing of each act.
- The Currency Acts were passed between 1751 and 1764 and regulated the colonial currency system. These acts did not directly relate to disagreements between groups in the colonial period.
- The Intolerable Acts (also known as the Coercive Acts) were passed in response to the Boston Tea Party in 1774. They were a series of harsh measures aimed at punishing the people of Massachusetts. These acts caused significant disagreements between the colonists and the British authorities. So, this option is a valid choice.
- The Navigation Acts were a series of British trade laws that were passed between 1651 and 1773. While these acts generated some tensions between the colonists and the British government, they were not a major source of disagreement throughout the entire colonial period.
- The Stamp Act was passed in 1765 and imposed taxes on printed materials in the colonies, leading to widespread protests and opposition. So, this option is also a valid choice.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
B: Passage of the Intolerable Acts
2. Which of the following pairs did NOT disagree throughout the colonial period?
To answer this question, we need to examine each pair and determine if they had notable disagreements during the colonial period.
- Patriots and loyalists: Patriots were colonists who supported American independence, while loyalists were colonists who remained loyal to Britain. These two groups disagreed strongly throughout the colonial period. So, this option is not the correct answer.
- Christopher Gadsen and Samuel Adams: Both Christopher Gadsen and Samuel Adams were prominent Patriots who actively participated in the movement for independence. While they may have had differing opinions on specific issues, they both worked towards the same goal and did not have consistent disagreements throughout the colonial period. Therefore, this option could be the correct answer.
- Citizens of the Up country and citizens of the Low Country: The Up country and Low Country referred to different regions within the colonies, particularly in South Carolina. While there may have been some regional differences and conflicts, it cannot be said that these groups consistently disagreed throughout the colonial period. Therefore, this option could also be the correct answer.
- The council and the Commons House: The council and the Commons House were two different branches of government in the colonies, with the council often representing the governor and the Commons House representing the people. These two bodies had frequent disagreements throughout the colonial period. So, this option is not the correct answer.
Therefore, either option B (Christopher Gadsen and Samuel Adams) or option C (Citizens of the Up country and citizens of the Low Country) could be the correct answer.
3. Who was elected president of the Continental Congress?
To find the answer, we need to assess each option and identify the individual who served as president of the Continental Congress.
- George Washington: George Washington was not elected president of the Continental Congress but played a crucial role as the commander-in-chief of the Continental Army during the American Revolution. So, this option is not the correct answer.
- John Rutledge: John Rutledge was a prominent figure in American history and a delegate from South Carolina, but he never served as president of the Continental Congress. So, this option is not the correct answer.
- Thomas Lynch: Thomas Lynch was a delegate from South Carolina but he did not serve as president of the Continental Congress either. So, this option is not the correct answer.
- Henry Middleton: Henry Middleton was indeed elected president of the Continental Congress. Therefore, this option is the correct answer.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
D: Henry Middleton
4. American colonists who were supporters of the British Crown and did not want to lose their position in society were called:
To determine the correct answer, we need to understand the terms used to describe different groups during the colonial period.
- Loyalists: Loyalists were American colonists who remained loyal to the British Crown and opposed the push for independence. They did not want to lose their position in society and the benefits that came with being under British rule. Therefore, this option is the correct answer.
- Patriots: Patriots were American colonists who supported independence from Britain and were willing to fight for it. They sought to break free from British rule and establish the United States as a sovereign nation.
- Imperialists: Imperialists generally refers to individuals or groups who seek to extend their power and control over other territories or nations. While some British colonists in America may have held imperialistic views, this term does not specifically describe American colonists who supported the British Crown.
- Parliaments: Parliaments are legislative bodies, and this term does not describe American colonists who supported the British Crown.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
A: Loyalists.
