The correct answer is the option that reads “With a whirl of skirts and with the brilliant sparkle still in her eyes, she fluttered out the door and down the stairs to the street”. Taken from the short story “<em>The Gift of the Magi</em>” by O. Henry (1906), the excerpt presented above <u>foreshadows</u> the moment when Della cut his hair off and sell it to receive money in exchange. Della wanted to buy Jim a Christmas gift, but she only had $ 1.87. Previously to that, the narrator describes that Della had only one possession she was proud of: her hair. The excerpt presented above narrates the previous moments of Della’s suffering of cutting her hair off and the last sentence of the excerpt foreshadows such moment, stating that Della heads for the street in search for some place to sell her hair.

Now that you’ve read and listened to Franklin D. Roosevelt’s "Four Freedoms," compare the experience of listening to a speech to
vitfil [10]

Answer:

Your answer should include these points:

Content: Discuss how Roosevelt uses both logical and emotional appeals. Note how he first explains why some Americans favor “appeasement” tactics, but these actions are both morally and practically wrong: “We are soft-hearted but we cannot afford to be soft-headed.” He also explains how staying out of the war is no guarantee that the United States will remain safe from German aggression, and he cites the examples of Norway, Belgium, and the Netherlands.

Emotional appeals: Note how Roosevelt invokes the four freedoms. He explains how the United States must go to war to protect Americans and people around the world.

Rhetoric: Roosevelt uses repetition effectively throughout his speech:

Our support goes to those who struggle to gain those rights or keep them. Our strength is our unity of purpose. To that high concept there can be no end save victory.

By repeating the word our, Roosevelt emphasizes that the war is a joint effort that will require “personal sacrifices” from every American.

Parallel structure: The repetition of the phrase “not satisfied” emphasizes that Roosevelt, leaders in the armed forces, and the American people are united in the idea that more must be done to increase the production of armaments.

Tone: Note how Roosevelt varies his tone across the speech. For example, he raises his voice when he says the phrase “everywhere in the world” to stress that Americans will be making sacrifices not only for their own countrymen, but for the world.

Pace: Note how Roosevelt pauses before important words such as healthy, peace time, and victory at the end of the speech to emphasize these ideas.
