Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • Question 31: The Protestant Reformation was sparked by Martin Luther's actions. In 1517, he published the 95 Theses, which was a list of the Catholic Church's practices he saw as corrupt (such as the sale of indulgences). The other options are incorrect: the Spanish Inquisition ended in 1834, the American Revolution was in the 1770s - 1780s, and Napoleon abolished the Catholic Church in France in 1801.
  • Question 32: The printing press in the early 1500s allowed for the mass - production of books and pamphlets. This led to new political ideas (like those of the Reformation) and knowledge spreading faster. Peasants did not ignore work to read "fanciful stories" as a main impact. Books became more accessible, not rarer. Literacy increased as more people could access reading materials.

Answer:

  • Question 31: Martin Luther published a list of Catholic Church's practices that he saw as corrupt.
  • Question 32: New political ideas and knowledge spread faster.
