Question

Which of these statements describes the changes that happened in culture and technology in America in the 1950s? Check all of the boxes that apply. Radio took the place of television in American homes. Americans became less interested in buying new products. Advertising encouraged Americans to be consumers.

Answer 1

It would be the last one, “Advertising encouraged Americans to be consumers”. The 1950s brought about a lot of new products available to the people, televisions being one of them, so it wouldn’t be the first one. Americans in the 1950s were most certainly interested in buying things, so it’s not the second one.

The correct choice would be the last one.

Answer 2

Answer:

C. Advertising encouraged Americans to be consumers.
