Which of the following statements best summarizes the "fiddler's bill" Bostonians had to pay for the tea party, as described in Section 1 of Chapter VII?

I read the book and spark notes talking about it, but I still need help, does anyone know this?

The choices are:

A. The port of Boston was closed to all ships, and huge numbers of workers lost their jobs. Many people struggled to put food on their tables
B. British soldiers were sent to Boston to enforce British Law. The soldiers camped on the common, carried muskets, and sometimes mingled with the colonists.
C. The Port of Boston was closed, General Gage was put in charge of Boston, and British soldiers were sent to Boston to enforce British law.
D. England's punishment of Bostonians led to colonists in all 13 colonies, even those who had little interest in Boston's struggles, to unite and help each other.
The answer I chose was D, is this correct?
