Harold · Answer 1

The Townsend Acts created these things:

1) Taxed imported goods

2) Created new tax collectors

3) Offenders sent to a judge in Britain

4) Smuggling increased

The colonists responded by organizing boycotts because they could not afford all this extra tax

So the answer would be "C"
