Q:
What evidence from the folklore will prove the customs of the people living in the land of mindanao?
A: My experiences outlined below are intended to be a background for the discussion of the theory and practice of Philippine oral traditions that follows. I have been engaged in folklore activities for the past few decades. I was born and grew up in a central Luzon town whose population was about half Ilocano and half Tagalog. I had before me, therefore, a wealth of customs and practices which a mixed constituency offered for study, especially those related to marriage and burial, types of houses and wells, gardens in the field, and so on. However, I was then still too young to pay any attention to their meaning. My father was a well-known storyteller and anecdotalist but by the time scholars had taken an interest in these tales, I myself had long forgotten almost all of them. My interest in folklore study was first stimulated by the folklore course I took with Prof. H. Otley Beyer. He instructed his students to gather myths, legends, folktales, folksongs, games, tiddles and proverbs which were current in their birthplaces and hometowns but he said nothing to us about methodology. Later, I also took a course in world literature taught by Prof. Dean S. Fansler, who asked us to submit term papers on any aspect of ethnic literature, whether oral or written. I decided on submitting one on oral literature — Tayabas Tagalog songs. Both Beyer and Fansler hardly touched methodology. Fansler, however, paved the way for the historical interpretation of tales in his magnum opus, Filipino Popular Tales (1921). In this manner Fansler became an outstanding folklorist but Beyer remained the big-time collector. I became Beyer's helper in the tremendous job of gathering his materials. A third influence on my career was Prof. Gabriel A. Bernardo, then the librarian of the University of the Philippines Library, which I had joined in 1929, Bernardo regaled me with his ribald tales about friars, which he told in the manner of Boccancio and Chaucer. We also had long conversations on paleography and metrical romances, which added to my store of knowledge in the field.

The correct answer is C. John Dryden's critical essays foreshadow the satire of Samuel Johnson.
Dryden's influence as a poet was immense in his own time, and the profound loss that it represented for English literature is evident in the elegies that inspired his deat. His poetry, patriotic, religious and satirical, popularized a type of Hendecasyllable verse that will be the favorite of the eighteenth century, as it was taken as a model by poets such as Alexander Pope and Samuel Johnson
The answer is - occupied with exploration.
While the Spanish still had problems with the Muslims and were giving their best to expel them, the Portuguese did not have problems of this type, so they were free to develop their economy and perform explorations. Because of the explorations Portugal made, they were able to find out new routes to the east, this meant free trade by their own terms, which led to increasing of the wealth of the country, and thus making it one of the most powerful countries in the world. Also because of their explorations, the Portuguese managed to get hold on to new territories and colonize them.
