Explanation:

First Question:

Other explorers of Columbus's time sought routes like going around Africa (for Asia) or east, but Columbus proposed traveling west across the Atlantic to reach Asia (he thought it was shorter). The option "He wanted to travel around the tip of Africa" was a route others (like Portuguese) took. "East across Atlantic" is not his plan. "West across Atlantic" is what made his plan different. "All of the above" is incorrect as the first two options don't apply.

During Jamestown's "starving time," John Smith had leadership roles that helped, though the starving time was also later, but John Smith was involved in leading Jamestown in its early, difficult periods including times of scarcity. John Rolfe is known for tobacco and marriage to Pocahontas. Chief Powhatan was a Native leader, and Pocahontas was his daughter. So the correct answer is John Smith.

Answer:

C. He wanted to travel West across the Atlantic ocean
