QUESTION TYPE: Explanation-Exception
ANALYSIS: From 1750 (first bank) to 1765 (first bank regulations), trade doubled in Glasgow. Incorrect answers are reasons that fit the timeline.
___________
- Yes. A prior event (technological revolution) helps explain the increase in trade. Early 18th century = ~1700-1740.
- This fits the timeline, and explains an increase in imports.
- More efficient financial transactions could boost trade, and they would have started in 1750 when the bank opened.
- The timing is right, and better roads help trade.
- CORRECT. The regulation started in 1765, after the period in question. This doesn’t help.
