Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

AThe United States declared war on Germany before Hitler took power

BFascism had no connection to U.S. debates before 1941

CThe United States opposed Axis aggression for years, but the immediate decision for war followed Pearl Harbor and Axis declarations of war

DThe United States entered only because of the Washington Naval Conference

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

ABritain should receive no help unless it joins the Axis.

BCongress should refuse aid to any nation unless the United States is directly attacked.

CSupplying Britain helps contain a danger before it reaches the United States.
