Explanation: I just took the quiz, and this was the answer :)
The main ideas shaping US imperialism were "Manifest destiny" and the "White man's burden". Manifest destiny refers to the 19th century belief that the United States were meant to expand across North America because of the particular excellence of its (white) people and (democratic) institutions. This lead to the Trail of Tears, among other atrocities. Once the US reached the Pacific Ocean, new lands came into view (Puerto Rico, the Phillipines). Manifest destiny became entwined with the idea that "civilized" nations had a moral obligation to colonize other peoples, which Rudyard Kipling summed up in his poem "White Man's Burden". The tensions in this "benevolent imperialism" were never fully resolved; the US invasion of Irak was launched under similar pretenses (the invasion was "for the good" of those invaded). The idea that other peoples have a right to self determination regardless of their level of development has not yet become accepted by the great powers, including the US.
1) The correct answer is: B) Developing
The word <em>develop </em>means to invent something or bring something into existence. <em>Refine</em> refers to the improvement of the idea by making small changes, that means the idea already exists, it is only modified.
2) The correct answer is: A) Refining
The word <em>focus </em>refers to pay attention to something, in this case an idea. From the options given, <em>refine </em>is the best choice as the idea already exists and improvement is needed. To do that, you need to focus on it paying attention to the small details.
3) The correct answer is: B) Well
Remember the difference between <em>good </em>and <em>well </em>is that the first one is and adjetive so it is used to modify nouns, and the second one is an adverd used to modify verbs. Fore example: you can be a <em>good </em>citizen, or you can read a <em>good </em>book. In the other hand: the car ran <em>well </em>or the kid played <em>well</em>.
4) The correct answer is: B) Tastier
Remember that to make comparatives and superlatives an -<em>er </em>or -<em>est </em>is used with most of one syllable adjectives and with certain two syllable ones. In this case <em>more </em>or <em>most </em>is not used because tasty has only two syllables. And you use the -<em>er </em>because you are comparing the meal with others.
