You've got most of them correct but there are a few errors.


Paper I

01) d (It was a socio-economic process with little to do with agriculture initially)
03) (Both "b" or "c" could be correct here).
12) e (The Manifesto was not just a historical document, it also explained the current Capitalist system and the fundamentals of Socialism.)
14) b (I think this makes more sense)
15) b
20) b (Both the Germans and the British believed that the war would be over "before Christmas").



Paper II
