What role did the Cold War play in the rise of Islamic extremist groups in
Afghanistan?
O A. It took up so much of the United States' resources that it was
unable to stop extremist leaders from conquering Afghanistan.
B. It convinced the United States that only powerful states with
nuclear weapons could ever pose a threat to U.S. security.
C. It led the United States to offer weapons to extremist leaders who
fought against the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan.
D. It helped extremists gain popularity by demonstrating that both the
United States and Soviet Union were opposed to Islam.

Answer: it’s A

Explanation:

The growth of Islamic extremist groups in Afghanistan and the role the Cold War played in their development  Because it consumed so many resources, the United States was powerless to prevent extremist leaders from annexing Afghanistan. As a result, option (A) is correct.

As well as their respective allies, the Western Bloc and the Eastern Bloc, there existed geopolitical tension during the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union.

The two superpowers did not engage in extensive direct combat; rather, they supported opposing parties in significant regional battles known as "proxy wars," for which they are collectively referred to as the "cold war."

Following these two nations' temporary cooperation and triumph over Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan in 1945, the rivalry was predicated on their ideological and geopolitical competition for influence on the world stage.

The news article says all of the following except __________.

A.Listening to loud music can turn microscopic hair cells in the inner ear into scar tissue.
B.Most young people listen to music that is twice as loud as a hair dryer or vacuum cleaner.
C.Experts believe that about 6.5 million young people have at least some difficulty hearing.
D.Hearing loss was discovered in 19.5 percent of teenagers tested between 2005 and 2006.
BOSTON, Massachusetts. A recent study revealed that one in five teenagers has at least some hearing loss. The rate of hearing loss among young people has grown significantly since about 1990. Now, experts are urging kids to turn down the volume on their digital music players. These experts suggest that listening to loud music through earbuds may be responsible for the increase.

For the study, researchers compared data from two nationwide health surveys of hearing loss in 12- to 19-year-olds. The first study was done between 1988 and 1994. The second was done between 2005 and 2006. In the first study, about 15 percent of teens were found to have at least some hearing loss. In the more recent study, 19.5 percent of teens had at least some hearing loss. This means that about 6.5 million young people have at least some difficulty hearing.

Most of the hearing loss in the teens was "slight." Researchers defined "slight" as an inability to hear at 16 to 24 decibels. A teen with slight hearing loss might not be able to hear sounds such as leaves rustling or someone whispering. Dr. Gary Curhan was the study's senior author. According to Curhan, people with slight hearing loss can hear vowel sounds clearly. However, they might miss sounds from some consonants, such as t, k, and s. Experts warn that this minor loss of hearing is sufficient to cause problems in school. It also sets the stage for hearing aids later in life.

"Although speech will be detectable, it might not be fully intelligible," Curhan said. Researchers lack final evidence that listening to iPods and other music devices is to blame for hearing loss in teens. However, researchers did note a significant increase in high-frequency hearing loss. This particular type of hearing loss, researchers said, indicates that noise may be to blame. Researchers cited a 2010 Australian study. The study linked the use of personal listening devices with a 70 percent increased risk of hearing loss in young peopl"I think the evidence is out there that prolonged exposure to loud noise is likely to be harmful to hearing, but that doesn't mean kids can't listen to MP3 players," Curhan said. "Our hope is we can encourage people to be careful."

Loud music isn't anything new, of course. Each recent generation of teens has found a new technology to blast music. Teens listened to bulky headphones in the 1960s and used the handheld Sony Walkmans in the 1980s. Today's teens, however, spend more time than ever listening to music. In fact, according to audiologist Brian Fligor, young people spend more than twice as much time listening to music than previous generations.

One of Fligor's patients is 17-year-old Matthew Brady of Foxborough, Massachusetts. Matthew has a mild hearing loss. He has trouble hearing his friends in the school cafeteria. He has admitted to occasionally faking comprehension. Matthew used to listen to an iPod turned up too loud and for too long. Fligor believes this caused Matthew's muffled hearing.

Matthew used to crank up the volume on his favorites—Daughtry, Bon Jovi, and U2—while walking on a treadmill. He did this at least four days a week for 30-minute stretches at a time. One day last summer, he got off the treadmill and couldn't hear anything with his left ear. His hearing gradually returned, but it was never the same.

Matthew's fondness for listening to loud music in not uncommon. During a study of college students, Fligor found that more than half of those tested listened to music at 85 decibels or louder. That's about as loud as a hair dryer or a vacuum cleaner. According to Fligor, regular listening at those levels can turn microscopic hair cells in the inner ear into scar tissue. Fligor believes that some people, such as Matthew, may be more likely to experience damage than others.

These days, Matthew still listens to his digital music player. But now he listens at lower volumes.

"Do not [blast] your iPod," Matthew cautions other teens. "It's only going to hurt your hearing. I learned this the hard way."

Betty Crocker isnt actually a real person. She is the brainchild of an advertising campaign developed by the Washburn-Crosby Company, a flour milling company started in the late 1800s that eventually became General Mills. Gold Medal Flour, a product of Washburn-Crosby, helped to kick-start Bettys career. She was born in 1921, when an ad for Gold Medal Flour was placed in the Saturday Evening Post. The ad featured a puzzle of a quaint main street scene. Contestants were encouraged to complete the puzzle and send it in for the prize of a pincushion in the shape of a sack of Gold Medal Flour. The response was overwhelming; around 30,000 completed puzzles flooded the Washburn-Crosby offices. Many of the completed puzzles were accompanied by letters filled with baking questions and concerns, something the Washburn-Crosby Company hadnt anticipated. Previously, the companys small advertising department had dealt with customer mail and questions. The department manager, Samuel Gale, and his all-male staff would consult the women of the Gold Medal Home Service staff with customers' baking and cooking questions. Gale never felt completely comfortable signing his name to this advice, as he suspected that women would rather hear from other women who knew their way around a kitchen. The pile of questions pouring in from the puzzle contest reinforced the need for a female cooking authority, somebody who could gracefully answer any kitchen questions that customers might have. The departments answer to this issue was to invent a female chief of correspondence, a fictitious woman they named Betty Crocker.
