In what way was the Great Leap Forward different from the Soviet Union’s Five Year Plan?

(A) The Great Leap Forward focused only on industrial production, while the Five Year Plan also took on agricultural production. (B) Unlike the Soviet Union, China was unable to successfully industrialize during this period. (C) Mao utilized a process of collectivization in his plan, a technique eschewed by Stalin. (D) Historians attribute mass starvation to the Great Leap Forward, but do not see similar consequences to the Five Year Plan.Explanation: Both the Great Leap Forward and the Five Year Plan sought to propel industrial and agricultural output, but China was unable to industrialize in the way that the Soviet Union was able to. Eliminate (A). Choice (C) is also incorrect because collectivization, the government takeover of businesses, was the method that drove both plans. The Five Year Plan led to starvation, particularly for the farmers, as Stalin prioritized feeding government workers, so eliminate (D). Choice (B) is correct.
