Answer: A, C, and D.
Explanation:
Taxes like the stamp act were thought of as ridiculous and overbearing. The colonists hated them because they were allowed no voice in parliement to oppose them. The intolerable acts were, as you may have guessed, intolerable to those living in Massachusetts--they were deliberately put in place to alienate massachusetts from the rest of the colonies, and make them feel grateful it wasn't them being punished. In reality, it did the opposite, uniting the colonists in a common goal. Woman not being allowed to vote wasn't a huge problem back then, so that wasn't scorned like the rest. Acts like the Quartering act, which forced american colonists to let British soldiers live in their homes for indeterminate lengths of time, were considered shameful and incredibly arrogant.
