The test tricks you a bit because he goes on the "techincal" answer rather than an obvious one.

For example the "The United States of America is a Democracy." statement. I knew that, techincally, we are not called a democracy, officially we are called a Federal Republic, but because we are given the right to vote, we are looked at as a democratic society. But, techincally, we are not a democracy.

Also the answer for the "In 1945, the U.S. dropped two atomic bombs on civilian populations in Japan in order to force Japan's surrender and "save a million lives" statement is a half-truth. oOo:
