a. encouraging american banks to invest abroad.
b. engaging in \police\ actions abroad.
c. promoting foreign consumption of american goods.
d. both a and b.
e. all of the above.

Explanation:

For the first question:

• Option A describes the original Monroe Doctrine, not the Roosevelt Corollary.
• Option B is a paraphrase of Roosevelt's "Big Stick" diplomacy, not the formal corollary.
• Option C is incorrect, as the corollary did not focus on territorial expansion.
• Option E is wrong, as the corollary allowed for military force, not just peaceful economic means.
• Option D accurately states the core of the Roosevelt Corollary: the U.S. claimed the right to intervene (including with force) to stabilize the Western Hemisphere and prevent European intervention.

For Question 6:

• Expansionist presidents like Theodore Roosevelt used multiple methods: encouraging American banks to invest abroad (economic imperialism), engaging in "police" actions (military intervention like in Latin America), and promoting foreign consumption of U.S. goods (to expand markets and influence). All these actions increased U.S. power abroad.

Answer:

First question: D. the U.S. had the responsibility to ensure stability in the Western Hemisphere, by force if necessary.
Question 6: E. All of the above.
