Explanation:

First Question (Document Matching)

• The Charters of the Virginia Company of London guaranteed colonists the rights of Englishmen. The Virginia Declaration of Rights served as a model for the Bill of Rights. Checking options:
• Option 1: Magna Carta didn't directly guarantee colonists' rights (it was a UK document for nobles), so wrong.
• Option 2: Magna Carta wasn't a model for the Bill of Rights in this context, wrong.
• Option 3: Virginia Declaration of Rights didn't guarantee colonists' English rights, wrong.
• Option 4: Matches the descriptions (Charters for #1, Virginia Declaration for #2).

• "Rule of law" means everyone, including officials, is subject to law. An ex-senator facing federal charges shows even a former official is accountable, matching rule of law.
• Consent of governed is about people's approval for government, not relevant.
• Popular sovereignty is people's power, not about accountability.
• Separation of powers is about branches, not individual accountability.

Answer:

#1 Charters of the Virginia Company of London; #2 Virginia Declaration of Rights
