The correct answer is A) Most settlers searched for gold rather than planting crops.

The Jamestown settlement nearly failed because most settlers searched for gold rather than planting crops.

Sometimes people deviate their focus to other things that are not the priority. That is what happened in the first colony of England in the Americas: Jamestown. The colony at Jamestown nearly failed because of these two actions of the colonists: hunted for silver and gold and they also searched for the fabled Northwest Passage.

The Jamestown Colony was founded in 1607 and was the first English colony in North America. These European people arrived on May 14, 1607, and established close to the James River. These people came to America because they aspire to be rich or richer and were looking for raw materials such as gold. But permanent conflicts with the Native American Indians of the region, hunger, diseases, hunted for silver and gold, and the search for the fabled Northwest Passage, almost made the colony fail and disappear.

Burka [1]

Answer:

Farmers struggled with low prices all through the 1920s, but after 1929 things began to be hard for city workers as well. After the stock market crash, many businesses started to close or to lay off workers. Many families did not have money to buy things, and consumer demand for manufactured goods fell off. Fewer families were buying new cars or household appliances. People learned to do without new clothing. Many families could not pay their rent. Some young men left home by jumping on railroad cars in search of any job they could get. Some wondered if the United States was heading for a revolution.
