Correct answer:  Foreign Policy - He oversaw the construction of the Panama Canal.

As reported by the Office of the Historian of the United States:  "President Theodore Roosevelt oversaw the realization of a long-term United States goal—a trans-isthmian canal" across the Isthmus of Panama.  With Teddy Roosevelt in the White House, in 1902 the US Senate approved the building of a canal through Panama.  Roosevelt's Secretary of State then went to work to arrange a treaty with Columbia (then in control of the Panama region).  When Columbia ended up rejecting the US's offer, President Roosevelt sent US naval warships to support the cause of Panama's independence from Columbia.  After Panama achieved independence (with US support) in 1903, the new country, the Republic of Panama, agreed to treaty terms with the US for the building of the canal.  The Panama Canal was completed in 1914.

About the incorrect answers:  

  • Woodrow Wilson was US president during the World War I years.
  • The United States took possession of the Philippines in 1898  (a couple years before Roosevelt's presidency).  The US did not grant independence to the Philippines till 1946.
  • In an 1886 speech, Teddy Roosevelt had said, "I don’t go so far as to think that the only good Indians are the dead Indians, but I believe nine out of every ten are.  And I shouldn’t like to inquire too closely into the case of the tenth.”   Roosevelt brought that attitude into office with him during his presidency (1901-1909).  As reported by Alysa Landry in an article for <em>Indian Country Today: </em>(June 28, 2016): "Roosevelt’s seven and a half years in office were marked by his support of the Indian allotment system, the removal of Indians from their lands and the destruction of their culture."

The speaker in "harlem" contemplates
natali 33 [55]
<h3>Answer choices are:</h3>

A. The outcome of people's hatred.

B. The fate of aspirations that are unrealized.

C. The result of heavy labor in extreme conditions.

D. The consequences of childhood neglect.

____________________________________________________________

Correct answer choice is:

<h2>B. The fate of aspirations that are unrealized.</h2><h2>________________________________________</h2><h3>Explanation:</h3>

The speaker inspirations about the prospect of a “dream deferred.” It is not completely explicit who the speaker is –maybe the poet, maybe a professor, possibly an indistinct black man or woman. The mystery is a compelling one, and there is a feeling of quiet after it. Hughes then practices clear resemblances to invoke the image of a deferred dream. He assumes it wiping up, rotting, stinking, crusting over, or, ultimately, collapsing. All of these images, while not completely drastic, have a slightly dark tone to them.
