Answer to Question 1

d

Answer to Question 2

Following World War II, the Marshall Plan provided massive sums of money in direct

aid and loans to rebuild the European economic base destroyed in World War II. Given

the Marshall Plan's success in rebuilding much of Europe, U.S. political leaders

decided that the Southern Hemisphere nations that had recently been released from

European colonialism could also benefit from a massive financial infusion and rapid

economic development. Leaders of the developed nations argued that urgent problems

such as poverty, disease, and famine could be reduced through the transfer of finance,

technology, and experience from the developed nations to lesser-developed

countries. From this viewpoint, economic development is the primary way to solve the

poverty problem. Ideas regarding underdevelopment were popularized by President

Harry S. Truman in his 1949 inaugural address. According to Truman, the nations in the

Southern Hemisphere were underdeveloped areas because of their low gross

national product (today called gross national incomeGNI). Truman believed that it

was necessary to assist the people of economically underdeveloped areas to raise their

standard of living, by which he meant material well-being that can be measured by the

quality of goods and services that may be purchased by the per capita national income.

After several decades of economic development fostered by organizations such as the

United Nations and the World Bank, it became apparent by the 1970s that improving a

country's GNI did not tend to reduce the poverty of the poorest people in that country.

In fact, global poverty and inequality were increasing, and the initial optimism of a

speedy end to underdevelopment faded.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
