The correct answer is d. were built around an area called common

At first English settlers built their homes behind high fences called stockades, then they made small towns where they lived with the american natives as neighbours.

As the colonist began to prosper, they built small towns in America that were something like to the villages they left behind in Europe. They were compact, easy to defend, and friendly. They had a meetinghouse which was used as a church, a town hall, and a social center. It was usually placed at one end of a big field called "common", because everyone used it in common.

They built their houses around the common. The houses nearest to the meetinghouse belonged to the considered the most important people in town as the ministers and the leaders of the church.
