casualties, impoverished Europe, destroyed three empires, and set the stage for

an even more savage World War II — had many roots.” (Paragraph 3)

assassinating Archduke Franz Ferdinand, the heir to the throne of yet another

European superpower, the Austro-Hungarian empire of the Habsburg

months, and eventually brought into the maelstrom two million American

‘doughboys.’” (Paragraph 16)

where French, British and eventually, American soldiers were locked in a

remorseless trench warfare with von Schlieffen’s army.” (Paragraph 18)

the U.S. as a threat.

launch an all-out, final offensive.

C. Germany was blamed for the U.S. joining the Allied forces and was essentially

abandoned by the other Central Powers.

focusing on gaining land in the other two fronts.

7. Which of the following best describe how the Schlieffen Plan shaped the overall war?

A. The Schlieffen Plan forced both the Central and Allied Powers to fight on two

horrors of the war.

the first to fall to the Central Powers’ control.

C. The Schlieffen Plan forced Germany to fight on both sides, meaning that this

country conquered more land than the Allied Powers combined.

D. The Schlieffen Plan was an overall failure and fell apart after the first major

battle; neither side had to fight on multiple fronts, as planned, from that point

on.

8. Which of the following best describes the major irony of the Paris Peace Conference?

A. It was entirely run by the leader of the country that fought the briefest in the

war.

B. The United States was given a very large role in the Peace Conference even

though they supported Germany for the first half of the war.

Allies — with the intent to punish more than to seek peace.

After Hitler took charge of the German economy, women and Jews_________.
NeX [460]

Answer: C. were forced out of work

Explanation:

When Hitler took power in Germany, his Nazi party engaged in anti-Semitic propaganda that blamed Germany's problems on Jews. Passing a series of laws, the Nazis forced the Jews from work and persecuted them in many more ways after.

Hitler believed that the job of women was to produce more Aryans for the German Fatherland and to nurture and care for their families. He believed that women working would reduce the chances of that so he forced them out of work too.
