Part A:

Answer

One of Roosevelt's purposes was to inform the American people of Japan's attack on the US and other places in the Pacific.

<em>The other possible answer is the one that mentions Japan being an ally of the Nazis, however the word "Nazi" is never mentioned on the speech.</em>


Part B:

Answer

He uses repetition, employing the word ¨attack¨ over and over, to inspire Americans to join the armed forces and aggressively take on the enemy.

<em>This is definitely the rhetoric that applies to advance his purpose from part A. The other options wouldn't apply.</em>

Create a claim only from the following prompt (DO NOT WRITE AN ESSAY! JUST CREATE A CLAIM BY RESTATING AND ANSWERING THE PROMPT)
alexandr402 [8]
When writing a claim you need to take a stance on a particular issue. In this case the issue is whether or not "standardized tests are the proper measuring sticks for student performance." This stance should be the first part of your claim. Then follow it up with "because..." and your three reasons.
For example, Standardized tests are a proper measuring stick for student performance because they can test a student's knowledge on a wide range of subjects, they are the same for everyone, and they are an accurate indicator of how well a student will do in their future studies especially for fields like medicine and law.
