Read the passage from "Names/Nombres" by Julia Alvarez. “Say your name in Spanish, oh, please say it!” I had made mouths drop on

e day by rattling off my full name, which, according to Dominican custom, included my middle names, Mother’s and Father’s surnames for four generations back. “Julia Altagracia María Teresa Álvarez Tavares Perello Espaillat Julia Pérez Rochet González." I pronounced it slowly, a name as chaotic with sounds as a Middle Eastern bazaar or market day in a South American village. What is the most likely reason why Julia does not like to say her whole name? Her entire name is too difficult for her to pronounce. Her friends like to make fun of her Dominican name. It embarrasses her because it reflects her ethnicity. She does not like saying it, because it is too much trouble.

Which phrase makes it clear that Roosevelt is aiming his argument at journalist
Monica [59]
<span>THE administration of Theodore Roosevelt was in some respects the first modern presidency. It is with Roosevelt that the most distinctive twentieth-century characteristics of the executive office emerged as more or less permanent traits. Roosevelt put the presidency and the federal government at the center of peacetime political action. He made the White House a national focus for the social mood and did much to set the moral tone of his times. He exploited the president's powers as commander in chief to initiate a forceful, independent foreign policy, deploying military forces abroad without direct (or any) consultation with Congress. And he extended presidential initiatives in policymaking to the domestic scene on an unprecedented scale, putting forward reform proposals for congressional action and using executive orders to promote major innovative programs.</span>
