Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • Question 7: The Scientific Revolution emphasized the use of reason and logic in understanding the natural world. This approach was carried over to the Enlightenment, where thinkers applied reason and logic to human - related problems such as governance, ethics, and social structures. Greek proverbs and Confucian philosophies are not relevant to the influence of the Scientific Revolution on the Enlightenment. And it is incorrect to say the Scientific Revolution had no impact.
  • Question 8: Rousseau's Social Contract theory posits that in a society, individuals give up some of their freedoms (natural freedoms in the state of nature) in exchange for the protection and benefits of living in an organized society. The idea that the king - people relationship must be approved by the church is more in line with earlier, pre - Enlightenment ideas. Putting one's own needs ahead of fellow citizens goes against the cooperative nature of the social contract. While the idea of kings being guided by the will of the people is related to democratic thought, it is not the core of Rousseau's Social Contract as described by him (his focus was more on the collective agreement of the people among themselves rather than just on kings).

Answer:

  • Question 7: The use of reason and logic can help solve human problems.
  • Question 8: Individuals set aside some of their freedoms in exchange for protection within the society.
