We hear much from Moscow about a new policy of reform and openness. Some political prisoners have been released. Certain foreign

news broadcasts are no longer being jammed. Some economic enterprises have been permitted to operate with greater freedom from state control.
Are these the beginnings of profound changes in the Soviet state? Or are they token gestures, intended to raise false hopes in the West, or to strengthen the Soviet system without changing it? We welcome change and openness; for we believe that freedom and security go together, that the advance of human liberty can only strengthen the cause of world peace.

There is one sign the Soviets can make that would be unmistakable, that would advance dramatically the cause of freedom and peace. General Secretary Gorbachev, if you seek peace, if you seek prosperity for the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, if you seek liberalization: Come here to this gate! Mr. Gorbachev, open this gate! Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!

–“Tear Down This Wall” speech,
Ronald Reagan

Based on this passage from the speech, what is President Reagan’s purpose?

He wants to build on the legacy of previous presidents.
He seeks to separate the Soviet Union from the rest of the world.
He hopes to remind the people of Berlin of the uniqueness of their city.
He wants the Soviet Union to demonstrate support for freedom in Berlin.

1. In the context of the story, how does love influence a person's judgment and reasoning? What would you have done if you were
Ghella [55]

Answer:

Love becomes the influencing factor for the princess and she did not want him to die but she also knows she can't have him get married to another woman. And debating between the two options, which either way will make sure she doesn't get him, she must decide on which door to choose from, with the man's full faith in her.

If I were in the princess's position, I would choose rather see him get married to the woman instead of leading him to his death. Even though there may be no future, the man still deserves to live and be alive and not be killed just because he fell in love with a princess.

Explanation:

In the short story "The Lady or The Tiger", the fate of the young man depends on the decision of the princess. And with his life on her hands, the author Frank R. Stockton leaves us with the big question of whether the princess led the young man to his death the tiger, or to the beautiful lady who will become his wife.

With the primary theme being love between the princess and the courtier who was from a lower social class, the notion of love becomes the most important aspect of the young man's life. And with his faith in her, the feeling of love supersedes the fear of choosing the wrong door. He has full faith in the princess's choice that is best for him. But the princess, on the other hand, has a lot to think about before deciding to lead her lover to the door he thinks is right for him. She has to choose to either see him get married to another woman or be killed by a tiger. And she even feels jealous to think of him getting married to another woman. This is what love does to a person, bringing in jealousy and hatred even to the point of killing the other person with the notion "if I can't have you, no one can". But at the same time, the author did not specify what door the princess leads the young man to, leaving us to conclude.

If the position to make the decision was on me, I think I will choose to keep him alive and rather see him married to another woman instead of killing him and taking his life. Taking the life of a person is not something that a person has the right to, and it is far better to see a person alive and secure instead of leading him to his death. Besides, living is our right and no one should be deprived of that unless they did a sinful deed worthy of death.
