Answer:

C. They attempted to practice an American way of life and live in peace with Americans.

Explanation:

With the increase in the immigration of settlers into America, the lands of indigenous people would become more encroached. Native Indians would be forced to defend their ancestral lands and settlements from the white settlers.

When the white settlers begin to gradually increase in the Indians' lands, the Natives, including the Cherokee people would at first try to peacefully welcome them. They silently agreed to let the white settlers among them, even agreeing to 'share' their lands for their 'homes'. They tried to ensure that peace prevails even with the white settlers' intrusion into their 'sacred' and ancestral lands.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.
