Korvikt [17]

Answer:

Eleanor Roosevelt, in her speech, has used precise and strong words to convey her message clearly without compromising with it.

She has used the word 'prostitute', in the same paragraph, to convey that we should not sell our free tradition. Instead of using 'sell' she used the word 'prostitute' to convey how much it devalue if we trade our free tradition.
