Answer 1

It definitely would not be the first answer! The other two answers I can see why someone would get stumped on. I believe it's C, when your talking about a decade you don't add a apostrophe. Hopefully this helps xx

Answer 2

C) In the early 1940s, the Japanese launched an attack on Pearl Harbor.

mine has an extra answer with. "In the early 1940s, the Japanese launched an attack on Pearl Harbor."
