Answer 1

The achievement that was NOT associated with the Tang and/or Song Dynasty is the smallpox vaccine. The smallpox vaccine was developed much later, during the 18th century, while the Tang Dynasty lasted from 618 to 907 and the Song Dynasty from 960 to 1279. The other achievements—gunpowder, woodblock printing, and Hindu-Arabic numerals—were indeed developments or innovations associated with these Chinese dynasties.
