I think the answer is A. They were weakened from the journey oversease. Have a wonderful rest of the day!!, can you mark me as brainliest please, and please tell me if it is right!
1. Support:
Wherever Europeans have gone, they have brought the word of the Gospel, Economic prosperity, political freedom and an advanced way of life. We have been able to educated wild and barbarians of Africa and India and there is no indication of why we cannot replicate the success in a country like China.
They do not have any democratic government, the worship false gods, they need a savior and they need our help to improve the condition of the poor and needy.
2. Against:
To define people of India, Africa or China as barbarians is not just ignorant but stupid at best. These are ancient civilizations, with traditions, cultures and religions pre-dating thousands of years of European history.
These are sophisticated people who do not want and would not welcome an alien people, religion and way of life in to their proud countries.
We have already plundered countries all over the world, have we learned nothing? Locals despise our presence and only tolerate us. If the money to keep the local government officials run out, we experience uprisings.
Why complicate our Empire's further? Why not develop friendly relations and end the continuous wars and killings?
If Howard Zinn is an option, I think it was him.
There is only one active descriptive sentence among all these, and that is <span>A. Early civilizations would often use papyrus as a medium for early written documentation of business transactions and scientific discoveries.
However, it is not descriptive, so I'd say that the correct answer is D. none of the above.
B and C are definitely not correct as they are passive, but A is not descriptive, so it is also incorrect, in my opinion at least.
