Answer:

The answers are A: Soviet productivity had dropped; C: Soviet living standards were becoming worse; D: The Soviet military was fighting an unpopular war in Afghanistan.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the late 1970s and early 1980s, the Soviet Union was facing several challenges. The number of product the USSR was making was sharply declining. This resulted in their economy dropping. The economy drop also caused the living standards in the Soviet Union to become worse. Also, the USSR military was fighting a costly and unpopular war in Afghanistan.

I am 100% sure I am correct, so don't doubt me ;D.
