Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze each option:

• Option A: In colonial times, most colonists did marry in their 20s as it was a common age for marriage to start families and contribute to the community.
• Option B: Colonial families were usually large because having more children was beneficial for labor (on farms, etc.) and survival, so this is true.
