<em>Short answer: B.</em>

<em />

<em>Here is why:</em>

<em>A might seem likely, but is actually incorrect because it does not show enough evidence to be anything more than a statement. It would more likely be a stereotype if the sentence was "All boys" or just "Boys" instead of "the boys", which refers to a specific group of boys.</em>

<em />

<em>B represents a family making boys do an activity. The answer as to why is not certain, but is likely because that is a "boys" thing to do.</em>

<em />

<em>C simply talks about a specific person, with no implication that their is stereotype involved.</em>

<em />

<em>D simply talks about the family success, with no stereotypical aspect involved.</em>

sertanlavr [38]
The reason for the English civil war was over England's government. It was fought between Parliamentarians and Royalists. 

Parliamentarian is simply someone or people that want the government to be a parliament.
