14- The correct answer is A. Franklin Delano Roosevelt asked to Britain to establish U.S. military bases in Bermuda, Newfoundland and the West Indies in return for sending supplies to them in the Lend-Lease program.

In general, the aid was free, although some equipment (like ships) were returned after the end of the war. In exchange for the aid, the United States received the lease of military bases and naval bases in the territory of its allied countries during the war.

In the case of Great Britain, the Destroyers for Bases Agreement was signed on September 2, according to which the United States Navy transferred to the British Royal Navy and the Royal Canadian Navy fifty "leftover" destroyers in exchange for the installation of North American bases in Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, the Bermuda Islands and in different parts of the Caribbean, all of them territories under British rule. The agreement had been the answer to a request of the British Prime Minister Winston Churchill that needed the destroyers to defend the coasts of Great Britain before the threat of German invasion and to escort the convoys that supplied the British Isles and that were attacked by the German submarines when they crossed the Atlantic.

16- The correct answer is A. The action taken by the U.S. government during World War II that violated the constitutional rights of some citizens was the interning and detaining of Japanese citizens in camps.

Concentration camps for Japanese in the United States accommodated some 120,000 people, mostly ethnic Japanese, more than half of whom were US and Japanese citizens from Latin America, mainly from Brazil and Peru, who were deported under pressure of the US government, in establishments designed for that purpose in the interior of the country, during 1942 and 1948.

The objective was to move them from their habitual residence, mostly on the west coast, to facilities built under extreme security measures. The fields were closed with barbed wire fences, guarded by armed guards, and located in places far from any population center. Attempts to leave the camp sometimes resulted in the dejection of the inmates.

18- The correct answer is C. The D-Day landing at Normandy on June 6, 1944, was the battle that marked the beginning of the end of the war.

In this battle, the Allies secured a beachhead that they expanded with tenacity in the following days, with the capture of the port of Cherbourg on June 26 and the city of Caen on July 21. The German counterattack on August 8 failed and on August 25 the Liberation of Paris took place. German forces withdrew through the Seine river valley on August 30, marking the end of Operation Overlord, and the beggining of the German defeat on the Western Front.
