<span>During the Great Leap Forward, Mao tried to produce more grain and iron among other resources, but instead, he primarily ended up with a lot more dead bodies and a forever tainted legacy.I think it is important to analyze the motivation behind the Great Leap Forward in order to gain a better understanding as to what exactly happened during the time period.The most basic theory could be that Mao was truly trying to improve the state of China.At this time, China was definitely lagging behind most European nations and America while historically, China was far ahead of these nations (think Tang Dynasty).
One key factor that drove Western nations ahead of China was industrialization.
Mao probably knew this, and it was definitely logical to think that China needed to industrialize in order to reach greater heights. In fact, the Great Leap Forward can be seen as one giant attempt to industrialize.Another idea is that the Great Leap Forward was Mao’s plan to cement his own power.On the surface level, if the Great Leap Forward succeeded, the Chinese people would view Mao as a national hero, bringing China back onto the forefront of the world stage.
But even if the Great Leap Forward didn’t succeed in its economic ambitions, it would have strengthened the sense of Chinese national identity.
The Great Leap Forward mobilized almost all of China towards one common goal, and arguably for the first time, people living in rural areas were incorporated substantially in a national policy.
This focus on people living in rural areas, which was the vast majority of China during the time of the Great Leap Forward, gave Mao their approval. <span>The motivation behind the Great Leap Forward is a topic of debate, but the result of the Great Leap Forward is not really shrouded in mystery.
</span><span>Tens of millions of people died and the Chinese economy shrunk considerably due to failed enactment of Mao’s ideas (people should have realized sooner that melting cooking pots was not a great source of metal and over farming lands led to rotting crops, not more crops).</span><span> Many people speak of the Great Leap Forward and the Great Chinese Famine as two separate events, with one causing the other, but I think that the two terms should really be synonyms.</span>But if I would've choose one of these answers, I would say C. Hoped I helped!

Answer:
It was a very cold morning as it had been raining very heavily the previous night. As my mother was feeling a little under the weather, my sister volunteered to drive me to school. I had overslept and as a result, was running a bit late for school. We got into the car hurriedly. The road was already congested with traffic. It appeared that everyone was late as well.
My sister was a careful driver and despite the fact I was already late, she refused to drive fast on the slippery road. I was lucky she was such a resolute and careful person because a few hundred meters away from the school, we witnessed a tragic accident. it all happened very quickly, as most accidents do. A car full of school children had made a left turning without signaling and as a result a school bus crashed into it. A few cars behind the school bus rammed into the bus as they could not brake in time and soon it became a pile up. The already congested road became jammed with vehicles that came to a crawl. I told my sister that I wanted to help the victims and she nodded silently. She brought the car to a halt not too far from the accident spot.
The scene that greeted us was something I would never forget. It left an indelible imprint in my mind to date. The impact of the accident had plunged three school children out of the car. The driver, a lady, lay lifeless on the steering wheel. I rushed to the children who were preschoolers. Two of them were seriously hurt and bleeding profusely from the head and hands. they were conscious although too weak to realize what had happened. One of them had her left hand severed and appeared unconscious. I think she was killed on the spot. In the meantime passers-by had called the ambulance and while waiting we tried as best as possible to help the victims.
The passengers in the school bus too were injured. I dashed into the bus and saw the driver laid slumped on the wheels. He had severe injuries on the head. While my sister helped him down from the bus, I told the injured school children to stay calm. Most of them appeared to suffer from minor cuts and bruises on their arms and bodies. it was really fortunate that nobody was badly hurt. By then a few adults had entered the bus and together we instructed the children to come out of the bus slowly. The children were crying and screaming for their parents and we had to hug them to keep them quiet.
Meanwhile, two ambulances had arrived. A traffic police car was there too. Two policemen were taking down statements from eye-witnesses. The injured and the dead were whisked away to the hospital. My sister and I later gave an account to the police of what had happened.
I was late for school. In fact, many drives were also late for their work. I informed my teacher of the accident and both felt that it could have been prevented if the drivers had been more careful. Innocent lives would not have been lost otherwise
