I've checked two of your guesses. You're on your own now.
For the first question, the correct answer is indeed D – a new style of warfare that emphasized speed and firepower.
To arrive at this answer, it is crucial to understand what the German Blitzkrieg was. Blitzkrieg is a German term meaning "lightning war." It was a military strategy used by the German forces during World War II. It involved the quick and intense use of combined arms (including tanks, aircraft, and infantry) to break through enemy defense lines and rapidly advance into enemy territory.
Now, let's move on to the second question. The correct answer is D – it served as a formal declaration of American intent to enter the war.
To determine this, it is necessary to be familiar with the Lend-Lease Act. The Lend-Lease Act was a program enacted by the United States in 1941 during World War II. It allowed the United States to provide military aid, including weapons, vehicles, and other supplies, to its allies (primarily the United Kingdom, the Soviet Union, and China) without requiring immediate payment. The Lend-Lease Act was a significant step for the United States, as it indicated a shift towards active involvement in the war, even before officially entering it.
Therefore, the answer to the second question is D – it served as a formal declaration of American intent to enter the war.
