According to this passage about the Salem Witch Trail, which is true?
The Salem witch gysteria began when several girls accused some other people of being witches. The main reason that the girls were believed and that the hysteria spread was that there were so many dispute between neighbors in the village. Neighbors went to court and testified against people they didn't like or people they were having a quarrel with. For example, John Putnam testified that George Burroughs was a witch, and Putnam thought Burroughs had helped cause his wife's death. These people as well as many others had reasons to accuse people of witchcraft for revenge.
A - Many of the settlers believed that there was evil all around them, this caused them to be concerned about neighbors who appeared to enjoy life too much.
B - What started as truly witchcraft, eventually became a " witch hunt".
C - Many people used the charge of witchcraft as a means to settle disputes against neighbors favorably for themselves

It took you more to type in all this than to look it up in your history book...

Anyhow: 1-D "no taxation without representation": the colonies had payed a large amount, in taxes to England, for the seven years war, and were seeking to have representation in the British parliament.

2-A The pilgrims settled in what will become New England. They were escaping their motherland because of harsh religious conditions for them. In Plymouth colony they created a settlement where they could profess their very own believes, but it was far from being a democratic government (especially for women: cfr "The scarlet letter").

For the rest, it is not shown here for where I am typing in the answers, sorry!
