A. READING COMPREHENSION:When Franklin D. Roosevelt was elected President of the United States in 1932,not only the United States but also the rest of the world was in the throes of an

economic depression. Following the termination of World War I, Britain and theUnitedStates at first experienced a boom in industry. Called the Roaring Twenties, the1920sushered in a number of things - prosperity, greater equality for women in the workworld,rising consumption, and easy credit. The outlook for American business was rosy.

October 1929 was a month that had catastrophic economic reverberationsworldwide. The American stock market witnessed the Great Crash , as it is called, andthe temporary boom in the American economy came to a standstill. Stock pricessank,

and panic spread. The ensuing unemployment figure soared to 12 million by 1932.

Germany in the postwar years suffered from extreme deprivation because ofonerous reparations it was obliged to pay to the Allies. The country s industrial capacityhad been greatly diminished by the war. Inflation, political instability, and high

unemployment were factors conducive to the growth of the embryonic Nazi party.Germans had lost confidence in their old leaders and heralded the arrival of amessiah-like figure who would lead them out of their economic wilderness. Hitler promisedjobsand, once elected, kept his promise by providing employment in the party, in the

newlyexpanded army, and in munitions factories.

Roosevelt was elected because he promised a New Deal to lift the United States out of the doldrums of the depression. Following the principles advocatedbyKeynes, a British economist, Roosevelt mustered the spending capacities of thefederalgovernment to provide welfare, work, and agricultural aid to the millions of down-andoutAmericans. Elected President for four terms because of his innovative policies,Roosevelt succeeded in dragging the nation out of the Depression before theoutbreak

of World War II.
