Irealize that allowing comcorp to erect a cell phone tower
next to the high school will bring our town thousands of
dollars. but until we know the full details of the safety of
this operation, we must stand firm against its
construction. this proposal is a trojan horse waiting
outside our city walls, and we cannot bring it inside until
we see what is hidden within.
how does the use of metaphor contribute to the effectiveness of this
argument?
o
a. it compares the construction of the cell phone tower to a familiar
example.
b. it emphasizes safety by comparing the cost in dollars to the cost
in lives.
o
c. it plays on the sound of words such as "comcorp" in order to be
memorable.
o
o
d. it makes a comparison between two unlike things: a trojan horse
and a wall.

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.
