Correct answer:
B. discourage African Americans from voting.
Poll taxes means you have to pay a tax before allowed to vote. That's a way of preventing poor persons (like blacks in the South) from voting.
In addition to poll taxes, other measures were also used to block blacks from participating in the voting process. For instance, literacy tests would require persons to pass certain standards of reading and writing in order to qualify for voting. These tests were aimed at blacks, who had not had access to the same education as whites.
The above passage speaks about The Origin of the Chinese Lunar New Year.
<h3>What is the Chinese Lunar New Year?</h3>
The story behind the Chinese New Year is a 20th century Legen or Chinese Mythology which states that a beast used to live under the sea or in the mountains.
The beast was said to eat human flesh on Chinese new years day. It was then discovered the same beast was scared of loud noise, fire, red color.
Hence, people began to light fires, paste red colorations on their doors, and light firecrackers all night to scare the beast away. Nian presently is used to refer to "year" or "new year".
