Answer:

<h2>D) The Marshall Plan built good will toward the United States that helped contain the expansion of communism.</h2>

Explanation:

The Marshall Plan was an effort both to rebuild Europe and work against the spread of communism.

The "Marshall Plan" was named after the man who then was US Secretary of State, George C. Marshall. Officially the plan was called the European Recovery Program. Marshall announced the plan in 1947, and it went into effect in 1948. The intent was to provide aid and rebuilding to European economies after the damaging effects of World War II.

In his speech introducing the plan, Secretary Marshall had said: "Our policy is not directed against any country, but against hunger, poverty, desperation and chaos. Any government that is willing to assist in recovery will find full co-operation on the part of the United States. Its purpose should be the revival of a working economy in the world so as to permit the emergence of political and social conditions in which free institutions can exist."

The correct answer is D) The 1893 Columbian Exposition was very popular.

The statement that best represents the main idea of this source is "The 1893 Columbian Exposition was very popular."

This is the correct answer because the excerpt tries to convey the idea that despite the United States was a young nation with a population of just 65 million people, the 1893 Columbian Exposition attracted 27 million people from all over the world, a fact that made the exhibition to be a very popular one.

This meant that although a young nation, the United States generated great expectations in different parts of the world to know its culture, customs, political and economic advances, and social organization.
