The correct answer is B.

The Sedition Act of 1918 extended the Espionage Act of 1917, covering a broader range of offences they were also prohibited since its enactment, mostly those which were positioned against the goverment or the war effort.

During WWI, twosocialists, Charles Schenck and Elizabeth Baer handed out fliers in which they stated that the draft was violating the Thirteenth Amendment by obliging citizens to go to war against their will, or in other words, to oblige them to involuntary servitude.

The Supreme Court decided that the Espionage and Sedition Acts should be enforced and that in this Schenck v. United States case, obstructing the draft was considered a criminal offence.

Andrew [12]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached, we can comment on the following.

In 1957, Russia successfully launched a satellite named Sputnik into orbit. The impact of this achievement on the United States was the following.

American people reacted to Sputnik 1 with fear and concern. United States citizens were concerned that they were inferior to the Soviets in terms of science, technology, and missiles.

Four years later, the Soviet Union decided to send astronaut Yuri Gagarin. He was the first human into space. His capsule was named "Vostok," which completed its orbit on April 12, 1961.

The response to the launching of Sputnik by the Soviet Union in 1957 and the sending of Gagarin was that the US federal government began spending billions of dollars to improve American science education.

The space program had to be sped up because, in those years of the Cold War, it was inadmissible for the United States to behind the Soviet Union in the space race. The United States federal government also invested a lot in education and space research.

Black people, African Americans were hired by NASA to help develop the science and mathematics calculations to develop better rockets that could equal the Soviet feat.
