Which of the following describes an event that occurred in Tiananmen Square in the Chinese city of Beijing in 1989?

Answer
A
Citizens gathered to celebrate the fall of communism.

Explanation

In 1989, pro-democracy demonstrators gathered in Tiananmen Square to call for political reforms. Chinese troops violently suppressed the demonstrations, killing and injuring many people. The event was not a celebration of communism’s fall, so the correct choice is “Chinese troops violently cracked down on prodemocracy demonstrators.”
