The correct answer is B Many candidates who passed the first examination did not go on to a higher level.

Explanation

The Chinese imperial examination system was a meritocratic system established during the Sui dynasty around the year 606. It was a method of evaluation by which Chinese citizens could aspire to be imperial officials. The evaluation system was designed at different levels; the lowest of the levels were examinations to obtain a bachelor's degree, which were taken locally to obtain a graduate status. Likewise, at the local level were the District, Prefecture and Aptitude exams, which in the same way were known only to obey the status of graduates. Being a graduate at that time was a prerequisite to enter high school and from there to be able to apply for public administration positions. The highest level exams were those of the Province, Capital, and Palace, which granted the individual the title of teacher and doctor. Therefore, it is possible to affirm that many candidates who passed the first exam did not pass to a higher level, because it was a series of exams that raised their level of difficulty and rigor, being a filter so that only the best ones could occupy public administration positions, so passing the first exam was not a security of accessing the upper level for the applicant. So, the correct answer is b. many candidates who passed the first examination did not go on to a higher level.

The Jay Treaty negotiated in 1794 caused
NeX [460]

On this day in 1795, President George Washington signs the Jay (or “Jay’s”) Treaty with Great Britain.

This treaty, known officially as the “Treaty of Amity Commerce and Navigation, between His Britannic Majesty; and The United States of America” attempted to diffuse the tensions between England and the United States that had risen to renewed heights since the end of the Revolutionary War. The U.S. government objected to English military posts along America’s northern and western borders and Britain’s violation of American neutrality in 1794 when the Royal Navy seized American ships in the West Indies during England’s war with France. The treaty, written and negotiated by Supreme Court Chief Justice (and Washington appointee) John Jay, was signed by Britain’s King George III on November 19, 1794 in London. However, after Jay returned home with news of the treaty’s signing, Washington, now in his second term, encountered fierce Congressional opposition to the treaty; by 1795, its ratification was uncertain.

Leading the opposition to the treaty were two future presidents: Thomas Jefferson and James Madison. At the time, Jefferson was in between political positions: he had just completed a term as Washington’s secretary of state from 1789 to 1793 and had not yet become John Adams’ vice president. Fellow Virginian James Madison was a member of the House of Representatives. Jefferson, Madison and other opponents feared the treaty gave too many concessions to the British. They argued that Jay’s negotiations actually weakened American trade rights and complained that it committed the U.S. to paying pre-revolutionary debts to English merchants. Washington himself was not completely satisfied with the treaty, but considered preventing another war with America’s former colonial master a priority.

Ultimately, the treaty was approved by Congress on August 14, 1795, with exactly the two-thirds majority it needed to pass; Washington signed the treaty four days later. Washington and Jay may have won the legislative battle and averted war temporarily, but the conflict at home highlighted a deepening division between those of different political ideologies in Washington, D.C. Jefferson and Madison mistrusted Washington’s attachment to maintaining friendly relations with England over revolutionary France, who would have welcomed the U.S. as a partner in an expanded war against England.
