Answer 9

1) I agree with (D). Iraq did not quickly transition over to a peaceful democracy. It still faces a lot of challenges today.

2) Definitely (A), though the WMD excuse has been torn apart by a lot more research since then -- especially since we didn't find anything.

3) Actually, it's (B). The foundation for what would become the WWW grew out of a research project being done by DARPA to connect universities and other research facilities together. The basic elements of that would go on to be used to create the internet we know today.

4) I agree with (C) since it's business related. Instead of a business focusing on local resources, it can tap into the work market elsewhere to shave costs.

5) This one has a funny answer or two, but you're definitely right with (B). After entering the workforce to support the war effort in WW2, women saw greater opportunities waiting for them outside of the traditional "stay at home" stereotype. They did not use it as an excuse to mainly strive for stylish clothes or bigger houses -- though by having a great job, they could afford both anyway.

6) I'd definitely go with (C). Of all of the nations on that list, France's democratically free and socially progressive administration allows a lot of freedom for its citizens in the same way that the US does.

7) I'd also agree with Tremster on Asia, so (B) is right. China, Vietnam, Burma, etc. are all Asian nations that have varying limits on freedom that are not observed by many other countries located in places on that list.
