Answer and Explanation:
7.
Part A:
<u>How did the Printing Press change people's lives?</u>
B. More people could afford to read books, and Renaissance ideas spread.
This is true because these books were made to be cheaper than books that came before it. This allowed basically anyone to buy them, even the lower class, allowing the literacy of the common people to sharply increase in level, compared to when book prices were high and usually only bought by the higher class peoples.
Part B:
<u>Which paragraph provides evidence to support the answer to Part A?</u>
As I don't have the book for your questions, I would advise that you find the paragraph that has the information pertaining to the answer given above (answer choice B)
8.
<u>Read the Paragraph and the directions that follow.</u>
In the Middle Ages, the Church had taught people to think about the afterlife. During the Renaissance, people wanted to enjoy life on Earth. Enthusiasm for games, sports, and entertainment blossomed. Music flourished.
<u>Which statement </u><u>best </u><u>describes the main idea of the paragraph?</u>
D. Changing values led Renaissance people to seek out various ways to entertain themselves.
I think this answer seems more correct than the other answers, due to the answer encompassing the fact that the people changed ways to fit their era, and wanted to entertain themselves. This part is looked at more in this paragraph.
Answer choice C. would be the second best answer, but it isn't entirely the best statement that describes the main idea. That's because it only refers to the part where the people lost interest in the Church's teachings about the afterlife. This part is only talked about in 1 sentence in this paragraph, while the entertainment part is talked about in 3 sentences.
