Read the meanings of the word bolt, then read the sentence. definition 1. n., a screw for fastening definition 2. n., a strike of lightning definition 3. n., a bar that slides to lock something definition 4. n., a roll of fabric or wallpaper answer correctly, and ! im marking branliest make sure you latch the bolt on the window when you close it tonight. what is the meaning of bolt as it is used in this sentence? definition 1 definition 2 definition 3 definition 4

The best fit definition for this example would be definition 3. Definition 2 doesn't apply to closing a window correctly so that is already out of the question.   A bolt that is part of a window isn't made out of fabric so definition 4 is out as well. Now that it's down to 1 and 3, considering it says "please make sure you latch the bolt", keep in mind that the definition of 'latch' is "a metal bar with a catch and lever used for fastening a door or gate" so choice number 3 would best fit :) Hope this helps! x

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
