Answer:

1- The statement is true. Kabuki is a part of the rich heritage of Japanese theater.

2- The correct answer is B. American Commodore Matthew Perry sailing into Tokyo Bay was the event that helped open Japan to foreign trade in the mid 1800s.

Explanation:

1- Kabuki is a traditional form of theater in Japan that combines song and dance in a stylized way with spectacular staging and costumes. Although the words of the plays are highly lyrical, Kabuki is generally appreciated for his visual and vocal performances rather than for his literature.

2- Matthew Perry was an American naval officer who played an important role in Japan's opening for foreign trade in the mid-1800s.

Perry's most memorable achievement was the expeditions to Japan in 1852–1853 and 1854, during which he enforced the conclusion of the Kanagawa Treaty, opening the Japanese Empire to Western influences. The so-called black ships gave rise to a great deal of resurrection in Japan during the Ansei period, when they clearly showed what technological disadvantage the country was in after a few hundred years of military rule during the Tokugawa Shogunate.
