Early in June my college friend K'ung Hsiang Hsi came back from T'ungchou for his vacation, reporting that the
state of affairs there and at Peking was growing worse,
that the local officials were powerless against the Boxers,
and that the Boxers, armed with swords, were constantly
threatening Christians scattered in the country.

Which historical interpretation is supported by this source?

A. Christians in Shansi hoped foreign countries would conquer China.

B. Members of the Boxer movement associated Christianity with
foreignness.

C. The Boxer movement hoped to completely overthrow the Empress
Dowager

D. The Governor of Shansi is one of the most powerful people in all
of China.
