Sometimes, reality is crazy—crazier than anything a novelist or avant-garde filmmaker or even just a really imaginative kid would be able to invent. Often, trivia gets to the point where it boggles the mind and you find it downright unbelievable. There's no way a spy agency used cats as spies, you might think. Nope! Boston wasn't nearly wiped off the map by molasses. That's all fiction!​

if you know thats all fiction then what you want to ask?

when studying cause and effect, historians usually group the causes into different categories. for example, cultural causes reflect how a society’s literature and art convey the way the society saw itself in relation to the rest of the world. another resource that historians use to understand society is pop culture, which tells them the trends and ideas that are preferred by the common people. when studying cause and effect, it’s important to remember multiple causation, or the idea that an effect could have several causes and vice versa.  

the correct option is “cultural causes” since art and literature are related to the culture of a place. culture is determined by literature, art, music.

the correct option is “pop culture” since it reflects the likes and ideas of common people whereas the rest of the options do not focus on common people.  

the correct option is “multiple causation” since it refers to the idea that events are caused by multiple reasons, not just a single one.  

an economic reason that the south needed a reconstruction plan is that plantations, factories, and other businesses were destroyed during the war.
