7. To determine the correct answer, we need to analyze each of the options. According to the statement, all of the following were reasons behind the creation of the Georgia colony except one.
- Charity: The Georgia colony was founded as a philanthropic venture, so this option is a valid reason for its creation.
- Defense: The Georgia colony was established as a buffer between the British colonies and Spanish Florida, so defense is a valid reason for its creation.
- Religion: The Georgia colony was meant as a safe haven for persecuted Protestants, so religion is a valid reason for its creation.
- Economic: The Georgia colony was intended to increase British trade and exports, so economic reasons are also valid.
Based on the options given, all of the reasons mentioned (charity, defense, religion, and economic) were considered in the creation of the Georgia colony. Therefore, the correct answer is none of the above.
8. To determine the correct statement about James Oglethorpe, we need to analyze each option.
- He worked to reform prisons in England: This statement is accurate. Oglethorpe was known for his prison reform efforts in England.
- He opposed laws that placed debtors in prison: This statement is accurate. Oglethorpe believed in giving debtors a chance to repay their debts rather than imprisoning them.
- He favored strict legislation dealing with the jobless: This statement is inaccurate. Oglethorpe actually promoted policies aimed at providing employment opportunities for the jobless.
- He was a member of Parliament's House of Commons: This statement is accurate. Oglethorpe was indeed a member of Parliament's House of Commons.
Based on the options given, the statement that does not correctly describe James Oglethorpe is "he favored strict legislation dealing with the jobless."
9. To determine James Oglethorpe's reason for choosing the site for building Savannah, we need to analyze each option.
- The area was located near the mouth of a major river: This option is correct. Oglethorpe chose the site for its strategic location near the mouth of the Savannah River, allowing for access to the sea for trade.
- The area was near a Spanish settlement that could provide supplies: This option is incorrect. Oglethorpe actually chose the site to establish a buffer between the British colonies and Spanish Florida, not for proximity to a Spanish settlement.
- The area was swampy and marshy and therefore good for growing rice: This option is incorrect. The area's suitability for growing rice was not a primary factor in Oglethorpe's decision.
- The area had already been settled by the English and therefore required little work: This option is incorrect. The area was primarily inhabited by Native American tribes, and the English settlers had to clear the land for settlement.
Based on the options given, the best explanation for James Oglethorpe's reason for choosing the site for building Savannah is that "the area was located near the mouth of a major river."
