Which of the following statements best reflects the Ming dynasty’s critique of Chinese government and society under the Yuan dyn

asty in Source 1?
A The Yuan dynasty rejected Buddhist teachings.
B The Yuan dynasty failed to embrace trade and technology.
C The Yuan dynasty had upset the Confucian social order in China.
D The Yuan dynasty allowed China to be overrun by a foreign power.

Source :
"Previously, during the final years of the Yuan dynasty, there were many ambitious men competing for power who did not treasure their sons and daughters but prized jade and silk, coveted fine horses and beautiful clothes, relished drunken singing and unrestrained pleasure, and enjoyed separating people from their parents, wives, and children. I also lived in that chaotic period. How did I avoid such snares? I was able to do so because I valued my reputation and wanted to preserve my life. . . .

For fourteen years, while the empire was still unpacified, I fought in the cities and fields, competing with numerous heroes, yet never did I take a woman or girl improperly for my own pleasure. The only exception occurred after I conquered the city of Wuchang. I was enraged at Chen Youliang’s invasion, so after I took over the city, I also took over his former concubine. Now I am suddenly suspicious of my own intentions in that case. Was it for the beauty of the woman? Or was it the manifestation of a hero’s triumph? Only the wise will be able to judge.”

Answer:

A. The Yuan dynasty rejected Buddhist teachings

Explanation:

The paragraph mentions alcoholics ("men who....relished drunken singing"), people who treasure goods above their children ("ambitious men competing for power who did not treasure their sons and daughters but prized jade and silk") and men taking women improperly for their own pleasure. These all go against Buddhist teachings, and Hongwu (the emperor who wrote the passage) is criticising how the Yuan dynasty does not follow Buddhist teachings.

Do you think that the consequences they faced were fair<br> Okay
Ainat [17]

Answer:

I think the consequences Alex and Jordan faced were fair. The reason behind this is because, when people fight, the end of it all will result in a consequence, whether they want it or not. I think they could've avoided getting into an argument if they had just been clear to each other, and not gotten so upset.

I tried to make it as clear and good as possible, I hope this helps! (:

American foreign policy decisions toward Iran during the early 1950s most clearly support which of the following conclusions?
VashaNatasha [74]

The correct answer is - A. The United States was willing to support pro-American regimes in foreign states even if they were not democratic.

The United States and Iran had much more different relations that what we seen nowadays. In the early 1950's the United States were playing on the soft power card with Iran. They were supporting a certain side in the country in order to gain support and ally themselves. Iran was a country that was of a great strategic importance, which was very important for the United States. Also, Iran had a very large market, as it had a large population that was constantly on the rise, so on open border for the American companies was going to be very beneficial economically.
