4 - correct
To come up with the correct answers, let's break down the questions and analyze them one by one:
1. All were results of the “red scare” EXCEPT:
The "red scare" refers to a period of heightened fear and suspicion of communism in the United States, primarily during the Cold War. The options provided are:
a) Many state employees had to sign a loyalty oath.
b) Many people were accused of having Communist ties.
c) Conservatives criticized government welfare programs.
d) Russian immigrants were detained.
To determine the correct answer, we need to identify the factor that was NOT a result of the "red scare." The correct answer is "c) Conservatives criticized government welfare programs." This is because government welfare programs were not directly related to the fear of communism.
2. The site of the most visible resistance to desegregation was:
This question is asking about the location where desegregation faced the most opposition. The options provided are:
a) West Texas.
b) Central Texas.
c) Mansfield.
d) Dallas.
To find the correct answer, we need to choose the option that represents the location with the highest resistance to desegregation. The correct answer is "c) Mansfield." This is because Mansfield, Texas, was the site of the infamous Mansfield High School riot in 1956, where white parents fiercely opposed the enrollment of several African American students.
3. Harry S. Truman lost support in Texas for all these reasons EXCEPT:
This question is about the reasons leading to the loss of support for President Harry S. Truman in Texas. The options provided are:
a) He fired Douglas MacArthur.
b) He opposed Texas’s claim to the tidelands.
c) He ended World War II.
d) Governor Shivers supported Eisenhower.
To determine the correct answer, we need to identify the reason that did NOT contribute to Truman's loss of support in Texas. The correct answer is "c) He ended World War II." This is because Truman's role in ending World War II, specifically by authorizing the use of atomic bombs, was not a major factor in his loss of support in Texas.
4. The course of the Korean War went against the U.S. and its allies when:
This question is asking about a turning point that worked against the United States and its allies during the Korean War. The options provided are:
a) China entered the conflict.
b) A surprise invasion succeeded.
c) Truman fired MacArthur.
d) Supply lines were cut.
To find the correct answer, we need to choose the option that represents the turn of events that had the most significant negative impact on the U.S. and its allies. The correct answer is "a) China entered the conflict." This is because the entry of Chinese forces into the Korean War significantly shifted the balance of power, leading to a prolonged and challenging conflict for the U.S. and its allies.
