Gabarito Comentado 5a Questão (Ref.: 201501348420) Fórum de Dúvidas (0) Saiba (0) How were cultural activities portrayed during the Great Depression, in the 1930s? It was difficult for the country to deal with so many people suffering, during the 1930s. It was hard for people to find ways of enjoying themselves as there were no choices of enjoyment. Families would spend their free time going on picnics on Sundays as, during the week, the parents had fulltime jobs. As people were earning good money, traveling at summer time was a habit. It was a time in which sports became very popular and the ones who took part in them earned a lot of money. Casinos were always full of people betting as the economy was doing fine. People enjoyed going to fancy balls, dancing, giving big parties to celebrate their victories. As it was a very difficult time, people sought diversion from their troubles. In films, comedies were the favorite type. Radio shows became popular and magazines provided popular diversion. 6a Questão (Ref.: 201501384050) Fórum de Dúvidas (0) Saiba (0) Which one of the alternatives below is WRONG in relation to US increasing power in the international scenario The SpanishAmerican War and the colonies it brought to the US marked, for good and for ill, the beginning of the modern era of US intervention in world affairs. The nation sought new room to grow: world¿s markets, protected by a worldwide Navy based on island territories throughout the world. The emergence of the US onto the international stage as a power also symbolized to many that the US had finally emerged, whole and healthy, from the era of the Civil War. The SpanishAmerican War revealed that industrialization in the late 19th century had made the US a great power. Now, as the frontier in the American West disappeared, Europe searched for America as its natural leader and supreme guider to a glorious future 10/17/2016 BDQ Prova http://simulado.estacio.br/bdq_simulados_exercicio_preview.asp?cript_hist=8361923280 3/3 7a Questão (Ref.: 201501384053) Fórum de Dúvidas (0) Saiba (0) Choose the alternative that has no connection with the Great Depression? The Stock Market Crash was just the beginning. Since many banks had also invested large portions of their clients' savings in the stock market, these banks were forced to close when the stock market crashed. After nearly a decade of optimism and prosperity, the United States was thrown into despair on Black Tuesday, October 29, 1929, the day the stock market crashed Seeing a few banks close caused another panic across the country. Afraid they would lose their own savings, people rushed to banks that were still open to withdraw their money. This massive withdrawal of cash caused additional banks to close. Businesses and industry were also affected. Having lost much of their own capital in either the Stock Market Crash or the bank closures, many businesses started cutting back their workers' hours or wages. In turn, consumers began to curb their spending, refraining from purchasing such things as luxury goods. Industry and banks grew as never before taking advantage of the poverty, despair, lack of consumer spending causing additional businesses to cut back wages or, more drastically, to lay off some of their workers. 8a Questão (Ref.: 201501348388) Fórum de Dúvidas (0) Saiba (0) What big difference occurred in American magazines in the 1920s? They had an appeal to consumerism. The magazines tried to avoid consumerism and encouraged people to save for the future. They had a worse printing than they used to before the Great Depression. They became very expensive so only welloff people could buy them. They were supported by groups of women who invested their money in the magazines as a way of fighting for their rights. Fechar
