Answer to Question 1

People unable to strike out at the real source of their frustration (such as unemployment) look for someone to blame: a scapegoat. Generally, a scapegoat is a racial/ethnic or religious minority. Sometimes it is people of one gender, one age group, or immigrants. The scapegoat becomes a target upon which to vent frustrations.

Answer to Question 2

c. 62; 38
