<span>Correct. The Berlin airlifts brought essential supplies and food to the citizens of Berlin while it was being blockaded by the Soviet Union in 1948-1949 in the years after the conclusion of World War II. It was one of the first standoffs between Western allies and the Soviet Union in what became known as the Cold War.</span>
I'm assuming you mean the French alliance with the American colonists during the American War for Independence against the British.
The French alliance was hugely important for two reasons:
- France provided significant military support, especially in leadership roles like that of General Lafayette, and in support provided by the French navy in battling British ships and transporting reinforcements for the American patriots.
- France devoted enormous financial aid to the Americans. The cost to France for supporting America’s revolution added up to 1 billion livres (about 4 billion in today’s dollars). That financial boost was much needed by the revolutionaries in America. [It did also have the side effect of putting the French government deeper in debt, which led to the French Revolution.]

A consumer is someone who purchased goods or services. So if people stop buying that certain good or service. Then the economy can go down because there won't be as much money coming in as there was. And then if people buy more of a certain good or service then the economy will go up because they'll be receiving more money.
I hope this helps.
