The correct answer is D.

Détente is a term used in international affairs to refer to a strategy that consists on easing previously tense relationships.

The détente policy adopted by president Nixon in the 1970s, aimed to improve the relationships between the URSS, and the Western bloc of capitalist countries leaded by the URSS. After that, when obvious weaknesses sent president Nixon out of office, the URSS took the opportunity and tried to expand its influence by attempting to invade Afganistan in 1979, which finally ended detente intentions.

Answer:

A) If it weren’t for Francis Pizarro’s, the Inca Empire would have continued to expand and prosper.

Explanation:

Consider, for example, we are told at the outset, "When Spanish conquistador Francisco Pizarro landed in Peru in 1532, he found unimaginable riches. The Inca Empire was in full bloom."

However, we were told that Pizarro captured and requested ransom from the last Inca emperor Atahualpa. What was the outcome? The text tells us, "Once Pizarro had executed the last emperor, the empire rapidly collapsed." This detail brings out the central idea of the text, that is, "If it weren’t for Francis Pizarro’s, the Inca Empire would have continued to expand and prosper."
