Which sentences in this excerpt from Franklin D. Roosevelt’s “Day of Infamy” speech make an emotional appeal by suggesting that

America's innocence was betrayed by certain enemies?
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.
Hostilities exist. There is no blinking at the fact that our people, our territory and our interests are in grave danger.

With confidence in our armed forces - with the unbounded determination of our people - we will gain the inevitable triumph - so help us God.

I ask that the Congress declare that since the unprovoked and dastardly attack by Japan on Sunday, December Seventh, 1941, a state of war has existed between the United States and the Japanese Empire.

A. 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.

Read the sentence. Inquisitive children make better students. Which best identifies the problem with this sentence. 1. incomplet
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

The correct answer is 1. incomplete comparison.

Explanation:

In the example, there can certainly exist a logical relation between the two propositions (inquisitive students - make - better students), however, since there is not enough information, a logical relation between them cannot be properly constructed. If the comparison presented some sort of argument then it would be complete. For instance: "Inquisitive children, <em>since they are more curious and open to learning</em>, make better students". Without the argument, the idea seems more like an unsustained opinion, based on prejudice, than anything else.

Why might the fact that more countries have democratically elected governments be considered "good news"?
Bas_tet [7]
Governments converting to democracy is a good news because it means that more countries are realizing that the power should not reside on a single person but on the majority of the people who are living in the country and providing the taxes and services.<span />
