With the fall of the Roman Empire, the Catholic Church took a negative stance on popular theatrical performances. Which of these

sentences explains why the Catholic Church looked down upon such performances in the Middle Ages?
At least one reason for increased interest in the Catholic Church was the effort by church officials to bring people back to the church.

However, these performances entertained illiterate and uneducated audiences, which encouraged the church to incorporate theater into its teachings.

After the fall of the Western Roman Empire, most of the arts of the Classical period, especially performing arts, were denigrated and even looked down on, even prohibited, because they were considered as disrespectful towards God and His creation. Also, because the performing arts, particularly theater, derived from works written by pagan artists, the Church refused to allow any such works to be known by the public and prohibited their clergy to allow nomadic actors from performing in their territories. It was not until the transition in the 900´s A.D that the Church began to realize the potential of theater to help educate the mostly illiterate population of Europe and thus, in this late Medieval period, theater of a religious kind was re-kindled. But before that, plays and theater in general were seen as an offense to God, and since most actors were Roman in origin and Greek, they were considered from pagan origins and were even threatened to be excomunicated for performing anywhere in Europe. The correct answer is: At the time, actors were seen as people with bad morals...

What does it mean when you see the label Brit. in a word’s dictionary entry?
notsponge [240]

Answer:

The answer is indeed letter C. The word is used mainly in Great Britain, not in the United States.

Explanation:

<em>Brit and US</em> are geographical labels found in dictionary entries. They come in parentheses and are used to indicate where that word is mostly used. Thus, if the label Brit comes after a word, it means it occurs typically in British English - that may include other varieties, such as Australian English -, but not in American English. An example would be the informal word "bevvy", which refers to an alcoholic beverage. In a dictionary entry, we could find bevvy (Brit).

Geographical labels are also used to indicate that a certain way to spell a word belongs to one of the varieties of English as well. For example, the color gray has different spellings according to where it is used. Thus, we would find grey (Brit.) and gray (US) in a dictionary entry.

HELP ME FLOCABULARY

Answer:

B) I love the lights and sights of downtown Tokyo.

Explanation:

This option actually uses capitalization properly, because Tokyo is a specific place, and therefore should be capitalized. Whereas downtown isn't a specific location, and is just used to reference the part of Tokyo.

All other options are wrong becasue they are either not capitalizing known locations, such as New Jersey, or are capitalising generic words such as city.

Hope this helps :)

Please mark me as brainliest if you are able to. It would really mean a lot to me.
