Answer:

A. It was believed that ancestors could talk to the gods.

Explanation:

Ancestor veneration in China is a ritual practice that is based on the belief that deceased family members have a continued existence in "this world" as well as spirit and gods.

The ancestors are still humans but they have become godly beings, they keep individual identities. Ancestors are considered to be a means of connection to the supreme power of Tian ( the heaven).
