The correct choices for devastation caused by the Cultural Revolution:
Ancient cultural artifacts and historical buildings were destroyed.
The education of millions of youth in China was interrupted.
Mao Zedong began the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution (its official name) in 1966. A big part of the program was the closing of China's schools, because Mao saw the majority of educators as bourgeois types who were failing to support the communist revolution. The Cultural Revolution was an insistence on loyalty to communist party ideology.
The Red Guard was formed, which was made up of high school and college students (no longer attending school, since schools were shut down). These radicalized students became militants for Mao over against those whom he considered not revolutionary enough. The Red Guard destroyed historical artifacts and writings of the of China's former culture. They also attacked persons who were seen to be resisting Chariman Mao's permanent revolution.
The Little Red Book<em> </em>(as it was called) of <em>Quotations from Chairman Mao </em>was originally published in 1964, prior to the launch of the Cultural Revolution. And the Little Red Book didn't produce devastation. Similarly, posters of Mao plastered everywhere didn't cause devastation. It was the attack on education and antiquities pursued by the Cultural Revolution that devastated China's historical heritage and intellectual depth.

Answer:
<h2>Welfare reform</h2>
Explanation:
In his campaign, Jimmy Carter had frequently asserted, ""If I'm elected president, you're going to have welfare reform next year." He promised to replace the problems of the existing system with one that would encourage work and family life, and that would "reflect both the competence and compassion of the American people." In August, 1977, President Jimmy Carter announced his proposals for reforming the welfare system in the United States.
However, President Carter's plan did not win support in Congress, and in fact never received a vote in Congress.
So welfare reform most definitely was a key issue for the Carter administration and addressed by his administration, but his reform plans were not enacted into law.
Note: The same thing could also be said about tax reform. The Carter administration proposed tax reform legislation which also was rejected by Congress.
