Answer:1.What is a harbor? A place on the coast where ships find shelter

2.What did the British government do in order to try and help The East Indian Company? They passed the Tea Act which lowered the tea tax and sent the tea ships straight to the colonies instead of going to Britain first.

3.Why weren’t the colonists happy with the lower tea prices? Because the Tea was not from the colonies thus hurting local merchants
