Answers
If you had read your assigned reading, you'd know why the first two are A. And you might know what happened after the 2001 dot-com bust.
For the third one I chose A and C but they were B and D. I don't understand why at least one of them wasn't C.
Because the dot-com boom had gone bust in 2001, causing a recession.
Ok, I see now. Thank you!
