Answers
Henry: Q1 is A. Their desire to establish a connection between the world and the gods' domain prompted them to build a city featuring a ziggurat, a mud-brick stair structure. But God stepped in and scattered them, perplexing their language, so that the tower came to be known as Babel. According to some academics, their intention was to storm the heavens and bring about divine retribution. In the end, their conceited ambition collided with what God had planned for humanity.
Max the monkey: Q2 is B. It reflects God’s recognition of the unity and ambition of the people in building the tower of Babel. However, He subsequently confused their language and scattered them across the earth to prevent their collective power from achieving anything they desired.
Henry: Q3 is D. This divine intervention prevented their ambitious project and led to the dispersion of humanity across different regions, resulting in the diversity of languages and cultures we see today.
Max the monkey: Q4 is D. After God confused the language of the people and scattered them across the earth, the ambitious project was left unfinished, and the tower stood as a testament to human pride and divine intervention.
Henry: Q5 is true. The people who settled in Babel aimed to construct a tower that “reached to the heavens” as a symbol of their unity and ambition. However, God intervened by confusing their language and scattering them across the earth, preventing their ambitious project.
Max the monkey: Q6 is false. God did not destroy the Tower of Babel. Instead, He confused the language of the people and scattered them across the earth, leaving the tower abandoned as a testament to human pride and divine intervention.
Henry: Q7 is true. The Tower of Babel story in the book of Genesis explains the origin of different languages. According to the narrative, God confused the language of the people who were building the tower, resulting in their dispersion across the earth. As a consequence, diverse languages emerged among different groups, leading to the linguistic diversity we observe today.
Max the monkey: Q8 is false. The Tower of Babel story does not specifically mention the creation of different ethnicities. Instead, it explains the origin of diverse languages.
