Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each blank:

1. The first blank relates to literacy/education enabling reading/writing. "The Great Awakening" (religious revival) or "The Enlightenment" (intellectual movement) aren’t about literacy directly, but "The Spread of Literacy" (or "Education Reforms") fits. However, common cultural shifts pre - Revolution: The Spread of Literacy (or "Printing Press Access") allowed more to read/write.
2. The second blank about improving lives through hard work: The Protestant Work Ethic (from the Great Awakening or Enlightenment - influenced beliefs) emphasizes hard work for prosperity, inspiring equality/opportunity.
3. The third blank about spreading ideas via newspapers/pamphlets: The Printing Revolution (or "The Spread of Print Culture") enabled widespread distribution of revolutionary content.

Assuming standard options (common in US history):

• First box: The Spread of Literacy
• Second box: The Protestant Work Ethic
• Third box: The Printing Revolution (or Print Culture)

Answer:

(First box) The Spread of Literacy
(Second box) The Protestant Work Ethic
(Third box) The Printing Revolution (or Print Culture)
