In this excerpt from President Kennedy of the 1963 Civil Rights Address, he emphasizes his point most by using anaphora to emphasize the lack of equality. Anaphora is a literary and rhetorical device that consists of the repetition of a word or phrase at the beginning of sentences or clauses. It is used to underscore the importance of certain ideas and to inspire, encourage or motivate the audience. Because of the repetition, it is likely to be remembered long since. In this excerpt, the President repeats "<em>It ought to be possible</em>", as a way of saying that equality has to be a civil right for <em>all Americans</em>.

'...'Turn into a baking dish...
ANTONII [103]
<span>The correct answer is D) Pour the contents of the saucepan into the baking dish. This means that you should pour it all into a baking tray and bake it in the oven, instead of cooking it on the burner in a sauce pan. This part of the recipe is usually near the end of the dish as the process rarely goes the other way around</span>
