For Question 1, in option A, it mentions 1763, which is not mentioned in the passage, so which is why I was inclined to choose A. So can anyone help me understand this? Thanks

Can anybody explain first and third question ?

For the first one, you have to scan the entire passage and then see which one is NOT mentioned

B is that one

1. The passage mentions all of the following events as causes of conditions that led to the American Revolution EXCEPT:

(A) panic and economic crises in 1762 and 1763.

clearly stated

(B) sudden nonimportation of British goods.

Non-stated, if any, was the contrary. Britons did not purchase anymore from the southern states

(C) Britain’s need to replenish its treasury after the French and Indian War.

Indicated in the currency act

(D) new merchant class that developed between tobacco planter and purchaser.

Mentioned

(E) excess goods on the shelves of merchants.

yes, mentioned. They had an oversupply


For the third we need to find a similar option that tells us a similar scenario of the civil war

3. Assuming that the causes asserted by the author for the American Revolution are historically representative of wars of independence, which of the following developments would most likely contribute to a national rebellion?

(A) Families who are members of the lower classes in a multitiered economy are suddenly cut off from all government benefits.
(B) A tax increase for large and small businesses alike is used to finance social programs for all.
(C) Democratic ideals combine with economic problems to create a climate of patriotic fervor.
(D) Foreign political interests are suddenly central to the considerations of national policy makers.
(E) Political events create an economic panic and depression and relatively sudden and widespread economic reversals.

E is the most similar scenario

All answers are positive and E is negative. E is the correct choice
