Ниже проверю каждое утверждение и дам короткое объяснение.
- The USA was discovered by Christophe-Colur-bus-in 1495.
- Ответ: Ложно.
- Обоснование: Христофор Колумб открыл части Америки в 1492 году, но не США как страны, и дата 1495 неверна. США как государство возникло гораздо позже, и вообще речь идёт об открытии Америки Колумбом в 1492 г.
- Columbus was not a cloth maker.
- Ответ: Истинно.
- Обоснование: По тексту его отец и дедья были ткачами (буквально — cloth makers). Сам Колумб был мореплавателем, а не ткачом.
- Most people in Columbus's days did not believe that beyond the Atlantic Ocean lay India.
- Ответ: Ложно.
- Обоснование: В эпоху Колумба люди знали, что за Атлантикой лежит Азия (Индия). Колумб считал, что можно добраться до Азии западным путём. Следовательно, утверждение «большинство людей не верили, что за Атлантикой лежит Индия» неправильно.
- Columbus sailed 7,000 miles to reach the new land.
- Ответ: Ложно.
- Обоснование: Расстояние от Испании до Карибского моря примерно 2,5–3 тысяч миль (около 4–5 тысяч километров). Число 7,000 миль слишком велико для его маршрута.
- All European people came to the New World largely to bring Christian religion to the Indians.
- Ответ: Ложно.
- Обоснование: Европейцы ехали за разными целями: золото, слава, торговля, политические интересы и часть миссий по распространению христианства. Нельзя утверждать, что «все европейцы» ехали исключительно ради религиозного обращения к индейцам.
