Final answer:
The events from the 1950s are B) The Korean War begins and E) Fighting stops in the Korean War, while the other options occurred in the late 1940s.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Cold War events that took place in the 1950s include:
- B) The Korean War begins.
- E) Fighting stops in the Korean War.
Option A (Marshall Plan begins) and Option D (Truman Doctrine instituted) occurred in the late 1940s, specifically 1947 for the Truman Doctrine and 1948 for the Marshall Plan. Option C (Berlin Blockade begins) also took place in 1948-1949 and therefore is not a correct choice. The Korean War, on the other hand, began in June 1950, making Option B correct, and an armistice in July 1953 ended the active fighting, making Option E correct.
