Read the excerpt from President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s “Day of Infamy” speech. Which word best describes the tone of the passag

e?
Yesterday the Japanese Government also launched an attack against Malaya. Last night Japanese forces attacked Hong Kong. Last night Japanese forces attacked Guam. Last night Japanese forces attacked the Philippine Islands. Last night the Japanese attacked Wake Island. This morning the Japanese attacked Midway Island.

Japan has, therefore, undertaken a surprise offensive extending throughout the Pacific area. The facts of yesterday speak for themselves. The people of the United States have already formed their opinions and well understand the implications to the very life and safety of our nation.

As Commander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy, I have directed that all measures be taken for our defense.

Always will we remember the character of the onslaught against us. No matter how long it may take us to overcome this premeditated invasion, the American people in their righteous might will win through to absolute victory.

I believe I interpret the will of the Congress and of the people when I assert that we will not only defend ourselves to the uttermost but will make very certain that this form of treachery shall never endanger us again.

A. Panicked
B. Outraged
C. Pessimistic
D. Joyful

Is the underlined word a predicate nominative or a predicate adjective? Langston Hughes was one of the greatest poets of the Har
Bond [772]

A predicate nominative because "one" follows the verb "to be- was (past tense). A predicative nominative alwasys follows the verb to be in al of its forms and one should view it as "equals", as in, Langston Hughes equals on of the greatest poets of the Harlem Renaissance. A predicative adjective must modify the subject and is linked with a verb, but in this sentence "one" does not modify Hughes. Another trick for remembering is that if you were to switch the order of the sentence, it would still make sense; "One of the greatest poets of the Harlem Renaissance is Langston Hughes."

How have the poets dealt with the themes of compassion and brotherhood in the poems Nine Gold Medals and The Cold Within?
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

Nine Gold Medals tells us that helping out others in need is more glorious than winning a mere race. The athletes reminded us that the world now needs more cooperation and collaboration than competition. Developing the feeling of brotherhood among all the people is important for the good of humankind.

The poem the cold within teaches how in today's generation prejudices, malice, biases, discrimination, and racism can destroy human beings and eventually the world. Therefore the title was given to show that the group lacked the "warmth of humanity" in them and hence they died from "The Cold Within".
