问题     Although it was once thought to have been built entirely during the Qin Dynasty between 221 and 208 BC, The Great Wall of China is now believed to have been started earlier.
    The 15-foot-high, 25-foot-wide, 1 500-mile-long structure was undoubtedly built to keep out invading enemies. To the common people of the empire, who had been forced to build the wall, it was not worth it, however. The wall, and other public works completed by the Qin Dynasty, had caused great losses on the wealth and human life of the country. As a result, an angry population rose up in rebellion against the Qin Dynasty, and in 207 BC the Han Dynasty began.
    Because of its rich history and magnificent appearance, the Great Wall attracts tourists, scientists, and historians to this day and will continue to do so for generations.
According to the passage, the Han Dynasty was able to come into power because______.

选项 A、enemies were not effectively prevented from invading the empire
B、it had started the work on the wall and really controlled it all along
C、People rebelled against the emperor who forced them to work on the Great Wall
D、the Qin emperor lost all his personal wealth building the Great Wall
