Question 5 • 2026_SUMMER 305_CR_2109010-M/J World History A

Which statements make up the Four Noble Truths? Choose four correct answers.

Answer
A
Life is full of suffering.
B
Suffering teaches people about life.
C
To end suffering, one must ask for forgiveness.
D
To end suffering, one must stop wanting things.
E
Suffering is caused by the actions of the gods.
F
Suffering is caused when people want things they do not have.
G
Following the Eightfold Path can help people stop wanting things.
H
Following the Eightfold Path can help people appease the gods.

Explanation

The Four Noble Truths teach that life involves suffering, suffering comes from craving or wanting, suffering can end when craving ends, and following the Eightfold Path helps end craving and suffering. So A and F state the first two truths, while D and G describe ending suffering and the path toward that end. The claims about forgiveness or appeasing gods are not part of the Four Noble Truths.
