Explanation:

First Sub - Question (Impact of Roosevelt’s fireside chats)

Roosevelt's fireside chats were radio addresses during the Great Depression. Laissez - faire policies were against government intervention, and his chats were about government action, so A is wrong. The chats were not about encouraging appliance purchases (B is wrong) and not about comedic skills (D is wrong). They were meant to calm people's fears about the economic crisis and build confidence, so C is correct.

The New Deal was created during the Great Depression. The main goal was to help the US recover economically from the Depression. The New Deal programs focused on relief, recovery, and reform to get the economy back on track, so A (to lead the nation to eventual economic recovery) is the primary purpose.

Answer:

C. Roosevelt’s fireside chats calmed fears and built up the confidence of the American people.
