The correct option is "b. They speculated in the stock market."
The North American economy of the twenties was based on fragile pillars because, to a large extent, it was oriented to speculation. A substantial part of the business profits was not destined to improve productivity but to easy and fast businesses. The monetary surpluses went to the stock exchanges where low-priced stocks were acquired and sold as soon as their price was high.
From 1926 that economic model went into decline. The saturation of the market and the decrease in demand caused a decrease in industrial investment. The countryside was affected by an overproduction crisis and farmers suffered a substantial reduction in their profits. Speculation not only affected the stock market, it also extended to areas such as the second home: there were areas, such as Florida, that were the prey of an unprecedented real estate boom. The houses were bought and sold with the sole purpose of obtaining quick profits and their prices doubled or tripled in just a few months.
Racial discrimination against Jews in lands controlled by the Nazis was not only rampant, but supported by the government. After repeated and prolonged harassment and abuse from the Nazis, Jews were piled into trains by the thousands and sent to concentration camps. As Jews were forced into the camps, they were stripped of their belongings, and clothes. Wedding bands were wrung from their hands, and even gold teeth were pulled from their mouths. These valuables, were taken by the Nazis. But are nothing compared to the humanity and innocence taken from the Jewish people. The Holocaust remains one of the darkest moments in Human history. These atrocities shaped an entire generation of the Jewish people. This event illustrates the animosity and the hate held by the Nazis towards the Jewish people, as well as mans capability to do evil. Forever burned into history. The Holocaust and its 11 million+ deaths will never be forgotten, and the persons involved will be embedded into Humanities memory.

Answer:
They would be sad and disappointed with their son.
Explanation:
Although Buddhism is an influential religion in China and the parents, shown in the question above, are good Confucians, who are likely to correct Buddhist teachings in their daily lives, they would be very sad and disappointed if their son decided to enter a Buddhist monastery.
This is because, to do this, the son would have to leave his family and live in the service of time and religion. This was not what families preached to be the right behavior for their children. Children should work and be responsible primarily for their families, helping parents and taking care of them when the time comes, a Buddhist monk could not bear that responsibility.
