         1. (A) arguing to expand the role of the United States in the world

          2. (D) overcome opposition to participation in the impending Second World War

Explanation:

When Franklin D. Roosevelt took over as President of the U.S., the prevailing American policy was to avoid entanglement in the world especially in Europe. This speech by Roosevelt was arguing to increase U.S. participation in world affairs because Roosevelt felt that the U.S. play a more active role in the world.

President Roosevelt in this excerpt was warning against the kind of country that Germany was becoming because they had been violating treaties. In doing so he was trying to overcome the voices of those who did not want the U.S. to participate in the affairs of Europe which eventually boiled down to the Second World war.
