Question

many people in ancient china worked in groups from the extended families that surrounded them. some of those people followed a philosophy called daoism and became known as daoshi. daoshi were sometimes hermits, or people who chose to live away from society and be close to nature.
below are close - up images from a painting with examples of daoist ideas. match the descriptions to the images:
the house is relatively small and near no other houses.
the area is so remote that it can be reached only by a small footpath.
a hermit stands alone and looks at nature.

Explanation:

To solve this matching problem, we analyze each description and image:

1. For "The house is relatively small and near no other houses", we look for an image with a small, isolated house. The left - most image (first image) seems to depict a small house with no nearby houses.
2. For "The area is so remote that it can be reached only by a small footpath", we look for an image that shows a remote area with a footpath. The middle image appears to show a landscape with a footpath leading into a remote area.
3. For "A hermit stands alone and looks at nature", we look for an image with a hermit figure. The right - most image (third image) shows a figure (presumably a hermit) looking at nature.

Answer:

• "The house is relatively small and near no other houses" matches the Left Image.
• "The area is so remote that it can be reached only by a small footpath" matches the Middle Image.
• "A hermit stands alone and looks at nature" matches the Right Image.
