The correct answer is:

To learn to become good Communists.

Explanation:

The Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution of China was a period of political and social crisis where their leader Mao Zedong (Founding Father of the People's Republic of China) forced the people to convert to a Communist society.

Re-education camps in China became official in 1957, and were used to teach people to become good Communists, Pastors and Priests, as well as intellectual bourgeois and high school students were sent there for at least seven years so that they could understand the conditions of work of peasants. Conditions on re-education camps were really poor and people were put in prisons; intellectual knowledge was not valued, so literacy rates in China dropped.

(d) to learn to become good Communists

Further Explanations:

During the period of cultural revolution, Many people were sent to re-education camps as they were not seen assupportive of the communist ideology. During the period of early 1950s, China set up Loafer camps and later changed its name to re-education camps. The re-education in China was set up in the year 1955 and that also became the first official policy of the Chinese government. Mao made the declaration that intellectual people could not be trusted with respect to provide education to the people and because of that thousands of teachers and professors were sent to re-education camps and the literacy rate in China dropped significantly as only students who were politically correct according to Mao were made in-charge and around 17000 students who belonged to the urban areas of China were not sent to these re-education camps. During that period of time, the police were given the authority to arrest anyone who they thought did not have communist ideology and sent them to these re-education camps and all the property and wealth of that person was taken over by the government. People who were seen as non-supportive of the communist ideology were arrested and sent to Re-Education camps.
