"be it enacted by the senate and house of representatives of the united states of america… that there is hereby established in the war department, to continue during the present war of rebellion, and for one year thereafter, a bureau of refugees, freedmen, and abandoned lands, to which shall be committed… the supervision and management of all abandoned lands, and the control of all subjects relating to refugees and freedmen from rebel states, or from any district or county within the territory embraced in the operations of the army, under such rules and regulations as may be prescribed by the head of the bureau and approved by the president….

What we are reading here is an interesting excerpt from the Freedmen's Bureau Act, which was signed on March 3, in the year 1865. This was an act which purpose was to establish a Bureau for the relief of freedmen and refugees after the surrender of the Confederate Army in the American Civil War.

After reading this passage the following statement would be the most accurate: B) This law was designed to improve the lives of former slaves. The term 'freedmen' refers to the former African American slaves, and the excerpt relates how they will go through this process and what goods and rights they will be granted.

A) is incorrect, as this is a text regarding the American Civil War that took place between 1861 and 1865, and not the Revolutionary War which took place from 1775 and 1783

C) makes sense, however, this is not the main idea of this excerpt and there is no way to know for sure that he directly oversay the carrying out of this law. We only know that he enacted the bill.

D) is incorrect, as the bill was active since it was enacted and for one year thereafter

According to this passage, those most impacted by this law: B) Could receive clothes, shelter and land. The text especifies how the freedmen and refugees would be granted these goods which included shelter, clothes and land for the remainding of war for one year thereafter.

A) is incorrect as the law was not directed to Confederate officials.

C) is incorrect, as the law was inmediatly put into action.

D) is incorrect. This text does not speak of freedmen and refugees having to leave the place where they currently lived.

Hope this helps. Happy holidays!
