Hello there, the correct answer is:
1. C. 2. B.
Reduces their power--elites in Latin America control economic and political aspects of society. Reforms would provide more groups with rights, reducing the influence of the elite.
In any country, elites often control the means of production and the political system. Reforms, especially coming from lower classes or oppressed groups, would potentially reduce the power and influence the elite group has. This has been true through many revolutionary movements.
The correct answer is B, as the civil rights leader and great-grandson of a slave who was one of the best lawyers of his day, winning 13 of the 15 cases he argued before the Supreme Court was Thurgood Marshall.
Thurgood Marshall was an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, serving from October 2, 1967 until October 1, 1991, the first African-American Associate Justice of the country.

There was a time in the 8th century B.C.E. when
the Zhou Dynasty’s ability to control its vassals broke down internal conflicts
made China vulnerable to invaders outside their lands. It was also in the 8th
and 3rd centuries B.C.E. when nomadic people made some drastic moves by
raiding farming areas of the North China plain. There were others who settled
and taken some captured existing states. There were also rivalries between lands,
signals of resistance, revolts, conflicts, war and invasion. Despite all of
these, there were also actions made for the intention of the consolidation of
Chinese civilization which resulted to a distinct Chinese culture and identity
which emerged and carried the Chinese people through the difficult times.
