Read the paragraph from "Wilson's War Message to Congress." On the 3rd of February last I officially laid before you the extraor

dinary announcement of the Imperial German Government that on and after the 1st day of February it was its purpose to put aside all restraints of law or of humanity and use its submarines to sink every vessel that sought to approach either the ports of Great Britain and Ireland or the western coasts of Europe or any of the ports controlled by the enemies of Germany within the Mediterranean. By using the full title of the German government, Wilson most likely hopes to (a)-impart a negative connotation of the German government to support his argument for war.
(b)-give clear and concise information, without leaving out important facts, as he addresses Congress.
(c)-make himself sound official and trustworthy as he is addressing Congress.
(d)-evoke fear in the members of Congress so they will declare war on Germany.

The correct answer is A) impart a negative connotation of the German government to support his argument for war.

By using the full title of the German government, Wilson most likely hopes to impart a negative connotation of the German government to support his argument for war.

Indeed, US President Woodrow Wilson wanted to maintain the isolation of the US from the European conflicts previous its entrance to World War 1, by having a foreign policy of neutrality. The sinking of the Lusitania ship and the interception of the Zimmerman telegraph made the US enter World War 1 on April 6, 1917.

Answer:

(b)-give clear and concise information, without leaving out important facts, as he addresses Congress.

Explanation:

Wilson's purpose was to avoid mistakes and misunderstandings. That would be the first war America will fight far from home, and he wanted to make clear who was the enemy. However, another explanation for the use of the German Government's full name is to show that they will fight, not only against a political government but against an imperial ideology, something that, at that time, America was against with.
