Correct. The answer is d. To substantiate his claim that Japan hoped to quickly conquer and secure its targets in the Pacific, the author describes Japan’s capture of Guam and the Philippines, which were U.S. outposts, in January 1942. The strategist, Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto, targeted these islands first because he recognized that it would be impossible to conquer these important American possessions once the United States was fully mobilized in the Pacific.
