B. Italy was covered with forests, which provided the lumber needed to build ships.
C. Romans could build ships faster and better than there neighbors.

I think that it could not be C or D and that it can maybe be B but I am thinking that it is mostly A.

Neither A nor C is right for the first one.
A is correct for the second.

To determine the correct answer, let's examine each option and eliminate the ones that are incorrect.
Option A suggests that a major part of Rome's economy was the selling of ships to foreign merchants. To check if this is true, we can conduct a quick search using reliable sources to see if there is evidence supporting this claim. Open a web browser and search for "Rome's economy and shipbuilding." Look for reputable sources such as academic articles or historical texts that provide a comprehensive analysis of Rome's economy and role in international trade. Check multiple sources to ensure accuracy and reliability.
Option B states that Italy was covered with forests, which provided the lumber needed to build ships. To verify this claim, you can search for information on the availability of forests and the use of lumber for shipbuilding in ancient Rome. Look for historical references, archaeological reports, or scholarly papers that discuss the sources of timber used in Roman shipbuilding.
Option C suggests that Romans could build ships faster and better than their neighbors. To assess the accuracy of this statement, you can search for comparisons of Roman shipbuilding techniques with those of neighboring civilizations or historical accounts that discuss the expertise and efficiency of Roman shipbuilders.
Option D claims that the fastest way to move goods between Italy and Asia or Africa was by ship. This statement can be evaluated by researching the transportation methods used for international trade during ancient times. Look for evidence of maritime trade routes, historical documents mentioning the importance of ships for trade, or archaeological findings related to trade ports and harbors.
By conducting this research, you can verify the accuracy of each option and identify the correct answer to the question. Remember to employ critical thinking and consider multiple perspectives before reaching a conclusion.
