Answer
The first line "20" and "6 1492" seem to be unrelated to the following questions.
For question 19, the correct answer is (C) i, iii, iv. Columbus argued that the Amerindians were cruel savages, lazy, and that enslavement was the only way to make them work. He did not specifically argue that they did not possess souls, although he did believe that converting them to Christianity was necessary.
