Explanation:

1. For question 4: The Zimmerman Telegram (the excerpt) angered Americans when it was made public, pushing the U.S. to abandon neutrality and enter WWI (note: the question has a typo, it refers to WWI, not WWII). Option J is correct as it reflects this impact.
2. For question 5: Wilson's Fourteen Points focused on a peaceful, lenient post-war order, while the Treaty of Versailles imposed harsh war reparations on Germany, which was not a key part of the Fourteen Points. Option A is the key difference.
3. For question 6: Tanks were developed in WWI to break the deadlock of trench warfare on the Western Front, as they could cross barbed wire and No Man's Land. Option G is the correct purpose.
4. For question 7 (partial): The excerpt emphasizes open diplomatic negotiations instead of secret agreements. The main aim here is to prevent secret international understandings (the visible options suggest this aligns with stopping private diplomatic deals; assuming the full correct option is related to secret alliances/understandings, based on the excerpt's focus on open covenants).

Answer:

1. J It enraged Americans and generated U.S. popular support for a declaration of war.
2. A It forced Germany to pay war reparations to the Allies.
3. G break through the trenches on the Western Front
4. (Based on the excerpt, the correct option would be the one referencing secret international understandings; from visible text, the intended answer is to prevent private/secret international agreements, e.g., the completion of option B/C would align with this, but from the given partial text, the core aim is stopping secret diplomatic deals)
