Which of the following were goals of the Stamp Act? Select the three correct answers.
kow [346]

Answer:

Correct answers are:

a. to raise revenue for British troops stationed in the colonies

b. to raise revenue to pay the British debt from the French and Indian War

c. to gain control over the colonists

Explanation:

A, B and C are correct because after the war with France the national debt of Britain was higher than ever. In addition to that they decided to locate large number of troops in the colonies with the goal to protect what was achieved in the war. Of course, all of this meant that they need new taxes. That is why Stamp Act was enacted, because they needed to control the colonists who were paying the taxes more than ever.

D is not correct answer because British crown was trying to make colonists obey them more, not to unify them.

9. Why did the Chinese government sell the grain that people actually needed to<br>eat?​
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

China’s greater involvement with world grain trade; through greater reliance on grain imports, China will pay less for grain than it would adhering to strict self-sufficiency. Despite potentially mutual benefits, however, the successful transition of China’s grain policy will be impossible without a favorable environment at both internal and external levels. China’s movement toward trade liberalization is confronted with China’s concerns over its food security, possible farmer unemployment, and international payments. To aid China in overcoming many difficulties, measures taken by the international community will be crucial to encourage a smooth transition in China’s grain trade policy.
