Answer:

B. The Townshend Acts raised the cost of tea for colonists.

Hope this helps :)

Step-by-step explanation:

The options A, C, & D are wrong because the Townshend Act was where Britain put taxes on goods (like tea, glass, paint, paper) imported from Britain. And the colonists resnted it since tea prices were risen.
