By the end of World War II, the United States had become a world superpower Which statement makes a proper inference about the idea in the sentence?
A. World War II was a short war.
B. The United States is a large nation.
C. The United States military has four branches.
D. The United States was on the winning side of World War II.
It is safe to assume the answer is D. because if the United States was not on the winning side of the war then they would not be considered a 'world superpower'.
