Answer 1

The correct response is: They did not like being limited to one city and having trade regulated so heavily.

The British believed that they should have greater access to Chinese markets and were frustrated by the restrictions imposed on their trade activities, which were largely confined to the port of Guangzhou (Canton) and regulated by Chinese authorities.
