a. that the soviets would never leave berlin
b. that the soviets would never leave iran
c. that the soviets would join the united nations
d. that soviet - style communism would take over the world

Explanation:

During the Cold War, the United States' major concern regarding the Soviet Union was the spread of Soviet - style Communism. Option A is incorrect as the US was not mainly concerned about the Soviets leaving Berlin in this context. Option B is also incorrect as the focus was not on the Soviets leaving Iran. Option C is wrong because the Soviet Union was already a member of the United Nations, and the US was not concerned about the Soviets joining (as they were already part of it). The US was worried about the expansion of Communism, which is what option D states.

Answer:

D. That Soviet - style Communism would take over the world
