Explanation:
Many friars and monks went to colonies to spread Christianity under the Catholic Church. They were the religious people who's only purpose was to convert the Native Americans. After arriving, they began helping colonies by holding acres of lands, and with the help of slaves tried to generate crops. It would be incorrect to say monks went to oversee their slaves works as they were religious people.

The correct answers are
A) Boycotting British goods
E) Holding Spinning bees
Explanation:
The Daughters of Liberty were the female equivalent of The Sons of Liberty. Both were formal associations that were build to protest the British Stamp law and the Townshend Act on the American colonies.
The overall goal was to boycott British goods and as most women were responsible for buying groceries and other goods for their houses, they were symbols of defiance.

The Iran hostage crisis <u><em>affected negatively the American opinion of President Carter </em></u>to the point that it probably cost him his second term as President of the United States. On November 4th, 1979, a group of Iranian students stormed the U.S Embassy in Teheran taking more than 60 Americans hostages. This action was a direct result of President Carter's decision of allowing the deposed Shah the possibility of getting medical treatment in the United States.
The students set their hostages free on April of 1981, 444 days after the crisis began and just hours before new elected President Reagan delivered his inaugural address.
