    The correct answer to number 1 is A) the start of the Cold War.

    The start of the Cold War was a result of increased political, economic, and military tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union. These tensions were caused by the difference in economic and political systems of the two countries, with the US disliking the system of communism used by the Soviet Union. This is when the fear of communism, aka the second Red Scare, really started to grow in the United States.

    The correct answer to number 2 is C) government and security.

    One of McCarthy's most famous speeches was given in West Virginia in the early 1950's in which he claimed, through his research, that he had found 207 members of the State Department were communism. This research was said to have been conducted during the 1940's.

    The correct answer to number A) A wave of isolationist sentiment.

    After both World Wars, Americans were focused on having their life return to normal since millions of men were now home and looking to start families.
