MTTC History - Free Test Sample Questions

The American colonists were angry that their freedoms were being curtailed.  The "Intolerable Acts" really put them over the edge. Which were part of the "Intolerable Acts?"

I.  They imposed a tax on tea.
II. They banned all town meetings without the approval of the royal governor.
III.  They closed Boston Harbor.
IV. They gave more freedom to the British in Canada.

Correct Answer:
ii, iii and iv
the correct answer to the question is "ii, iii, and iv."

the "intolerable acts" were a series of measures imposed by the british parliament in 1774 in response to the boston tea party and other protests by the american colonists. these acts were perceived as punitive by the colonists and significantly escalated tensions leading up to the american revolution.

ii. the "intolerable acts" included measures that prohibited town meetings in massachusetts without the approval of the royal governor. this restriction was seen as a direct attack on the local governance and autonomy that the colonists had enjoyed and valued.

iii. another key part of the "intolerable acts" was the closing of boston harbor until the colonists paid for the tea dumped during the boston tea party. this act not only punished boston economically by halting trade, but it also served as a stark warning to all the colonies about the lengths to which parliament would go to enforce its laws.

iv. although not directly affecting the thirteen colonies in the same way as the other measures, the quebec act is often considered part of the "intolerable acts" by historians and was viewed unfavorably by the colonists. it extended the boundaries of quebec and granted greater religious freedoms to catholics, which alarmed the predominantly protestant colonists. this act was seen as favoring the british subjects in canada over the british subjects in the colonies.

it is important to note that while the "intolerable acts" included these coercive measures, they did not impose a tax on tea. the misconception that they included a new tea tax persists because of the earlier townshend acts, which had placed a tax on tea among other goods. this tax was a separate issue and part of the broader context of colonial grievances over "taxation without representation."
