Answer:

China was a key influence on East Asian cultures for many centuries as a center of learning, political thought, religion; it provided civilizational models to neighboring kingdoms. In ancient and medieval times, the old elites learned and wrote Chinese characters, used in the administration and for literature in Japan, Korea and Vietnam; Japanese and Korean written language evolved from Chinese caracters. Chinese Confucianism, the official state ideology since the Han dynasty that aims at keeping order, harmony and social hierarchy, was also adopted in courts in East Asia. Buddhism, a religion arrived in China in the 2nd century CE, spread from China to Korea and later to Japan. These are examples of the rich cultural influence China has exerted in Asia historically.

it was a mistake for the United States to make an alliance with the Soviet totalitarian communist union during World War II

I'll assume that's a thesis statement meant for argument or debate. An argument could be made on either side, depending on your point of view.

On the one hand, the United States and the Soviet Union had dramatically different worldviews. The US system of democracy and capitalism was at odds with the USSR system of totalitarian rule and communist collectivism. The two nations were allied only for the sake of defeating Germany and Japan in the Second World War, and were in opposition to each other in about every other way. Following the war, they became bitter opponents in the Cold War.
On the other hand, the USA and the other Allies in World War II needed the help of the Soviet Union in order to defeat the combined threat of Germany and Japan. The USSR suffered millions of casualties due to the war -- more than any other nation. They bore the brunt of the fighting against Germany, even before the US entered the war. And President Roosevelt, while not in agreement with the governing philosophy of Joseph Stalin, still thought he was someone that could be worked with cooperatively. (When President Truman took over after Roosevelt's death, he did not share that same view of Stalin and the USSR.)

So the matter can be argued from both sides. Pick your side and write a strong essay!

What did Thomas Paine mean when he said,"The cause of America" is "the cause of all mankind"?

He basically wanted the Americans to unite and form a strong army to defeat the British and grant them independence. So either C or D, I honestly don't know but I seen this.
