Taking only the information of the fragment into
consideration, the only thing that we can infer is that Qin Shi Huang believed
that economic progress is the true mark of a successful empire. After all, the excerpt
is stating that he added greatly to China’s progress and built roads to improve
China’s trade, which mean he was concerned with the wealth of his empire.
On the other hand, the excerpt is not telling us the causes
of his short rule; therefore, we can discard answers A and C. In addition, even
though the excerpt is telling us he began the construction of the great wall,
it does not state his reason for doing so; therefore, we can rule out Answer B.
Last, we can rule out D because the excerpt is telling us he united China, but
is not telling us the means he used.
Taking all of this into consideration, we can conclude that
the answer is E.
