A To protect trusts and monopolies from government intervertion B Establishing the federal government to regulate big business activities in order to break up inencpiles C Promoting Laissez Faire principals in big business D Enabling corporations to consolidate under federally appointed supervisors

Answer 1

The correct answer is **B. Establishing the federal government to regulate big business activities in order to break up monopolies.**The prompt mentions "major reforms" and "two prime ministers," suggesting a period of trust-busting and increased government regulation of business. Options A, C, and D all describe the *opposite* of this.* **A. To protect trusts and monopolies from government intervention:** This is incorrect. Reforms aim to *limit* the power of trusts and monopolies, not protect them.* **C. Promoting Laissez-Faire principles in big business:** Laissez-faire means minimal government intervention. Reforms during this period aimed to *increase* government intervention.* **D. Enabling corporations to consolidate under federally appointed supervisors:** While this involves government oversight, it promotes consolidation, which is the opposite of breaking up monopolies. The reforms aimed to *prevent* excessive consolidation.
