When World War II was over it came to light that the military had rejected over half of the men who were drafted or had given them lighter duties, because they were not fit enough for combat. The United States began to realize it needed to focus more on fitness. A researcher by the name of Thomas K. Cureton began to study exercise and fitness. He conducted many experiments and was able to establish a set of guidelines for maintaining fitness.

The answer to choose: A) Carter was instrumental in negotiating the Camp David Accords, which directly led to the 1979 Egypt-Israeli Peace Treaty.
Details:
Thanks to the persistent efforts of President Carter in working with Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin, those two leaers signed the Camp David Accords in September, 1978. That led to the 1979 peace treaty between Egypt and Israel that has lasted to the present day. Sadat and Begin were awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1978 for their efforts in reaching the agreement that they made.
As to the other answers:
The fact that Carter allowed the deposed shah of Iran to come into the USA for medical treatment did provoke the hostage seizure in Tehran. However, that was not a major <u>success</u> of Carter's foreign policy, but a major mistake. (His advisors had tried to tell him in advance that letting the shah come into the US was a bad idea.)
Similarly, the increase of tensions with the Soviet Union over the Olympics would not be an example of a success.
The federal law regarding cleaning up hazardous waste would be a success item, but one of <u>domestic</u> policy, not foreign policy.
