Explanation:

• Question 1: The phrase "shot heard round the world" refers to the first shots of the American Revolution, which occurred at Lexington and Concord. The Battle of Trenton was a later important battle in the war but not the start. The Battle of Yorktown was the final major battle. The Battle of Saratoga was a turning - point battle.
• Question 2: "Common Sense" by Thomas Paine was a highly influential pamphlet that argued for American independence. The Declaration of Independence was a formal statement of independence, not a pamphlet to convince colonists. The American Crisis was a series of pamphlets during the war but not the one focused on convincing for independence as the next step. The Articles of Confederation was the first constitution of the United States.

Answer:

• Question 1: Lexington and Concord
• Question 2: Common Sense
