Explanation:

1. For the 1932 election, Americans faced the worst of the Great Depression, and Herbert Hoover's policies failed to alleviate the crisis. Franklin D. Roosevelt campaigned on offering new, active solutions (the early framework of the New Deal), which led to his support.
2. FDR's first 100 days (1933) focused on immediate relief and recovery programs. The Civilian Conservation Corps, Tennessee Valley Authority, and banking reforms were all established in this period. Social Security was created later, in 1935, as part of the Second New Deal.

Answer:

1. b) He offered new solutions to the Great Depression
2. c) Social Security
