The answer for this one would Be A because
Lewis begin his speech with humor to engage the audience and to lighten the mood of the audience.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Michael Lewis began his speech with a sense of humor at the Princeton University and asked the students to give themselves a round of applause because he wanted the students to feel that they had achieved something for which they were being recognized.
He wanted the students to feel that they had worked hard to have been graduating and never forget what they had learned. In his speech, he also wanted to tell the students that they had been lucky enough to have been prepared for jobs in the market whereas when he graduated he was not ready or prepared for a job.
The Arab nations started the war during Ramadan but it was not necessarily in the belief that its religious significance would give them some kind of upper hand, rather it was because it was strategic war timing with the aim of obtaining a fairly quick and decisive victory over Israel.
The fact that the war was launched on Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar while many of Jewish soldiers were away indicates the timing of the war was more of a tactic to catch Israel's army at its most vulnerable than because it was the Muslim holy month.
Of course, the move did not help the invaders at all but back fired badly against them as Israel quickly recovered, counter-attacked and roundly defeated all three Arab nations and captured even more Arab territory than before.
<span>Mobilization of the American Home Front
World War II officially began in Europe when Germany invaded Poland in 1939. By 1940 the war in Europe was in full swing, and the Allies, the nations fighting Germany and Italy, including Britain and France, needed U.S. support. At this time the United States was not involved in the war. However, it did agree to provide the Allies with weapons and other war materials. This agreement changed daily life in the United States as Americans began participating in a broad united effort to support the far-off military campaign. The biggest challenge involved industrial mobilization, the conversion of U.S. manufacturing from the production of civilian goods to the production of war materials. America had much to do to gear up for war production. It had to awaken from an economic lull brought on by the Great Depression. The Great Depression was the most severe economic crisis the United States ever experienced. It began in late 1929 and lasted throughout the 1930s. The Depression led to slowed business activity, high unemployment rates, and social unrest in many areas of the country.
To guide and coordinate the massive mobilization effort the U.S. government created numerous temporary federal agencies, including the War Resources Board, Office of Emergency Management, Office of Production Management, Supplies Priorities and Allocations Board, War Production Board, Office of Economic Stabilization, Defense Plant Corporation, and Office of War Mobilization. Under the guidance of these agencies, American businesses and workers brought about a giant increase in U.S. industrial productivity, and overall the mobilization effort created dramatic growth in large private corporations.</span>
