Read the excerpt from act ii of hamlet. could force his soul so to his own conceit that from her working all his visage wann’d, tears in his eyes, distraction in ’s aspect, a broken voice, and his whole function suiting with forms to his conceit? and all for nothing! for hecuba! shakespeare’s allusion to hecuba suggests that hamlet is irritated by the actor’s emotional performance of the speech. is impressed by the actor’s ability to cry for a fictional character. wishes the actor had shown more emotion during the speech. feels that the actor does not know who hecuba really was.

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.
