Answer #1 - D) To address the issues involving the Protestant movement.
Answer #2 - A) They objected to clergymen who lived lavishly.
Some additional notes:
In regard to question #2, I've seen some people answer this question with item D, saying commoners supported Henry VIII's dissolution of the monasteries because they were Puritans. That is incorrect, however, because the Puritan movement did not begin until later, under the reign of Elizabeth.
Regarding question #1, the Council of Trent, held over a span of years from 1545 to 1563, served to reform some abuses that were acknowledged by the Catholic Church. Mostly, though, the Council aimed to assert the full authority of Roman power and doctrine over the Protestant threat.
