Mary oliver; the storm

now through the white orchard my little dog

romps, breaking the new snow

with wild feet. running here running there, excited, hardly able to stop, he leaps, he spins until the white snow is written upon. in large, exuberant letters, a long sentence, expressing the pleasures of the body in this world. oh, i could not have said it better.

imagery used (writing that puts a picture in the reader’s mind, such as the snow swirled lightly in the frosty air):

parallelism used (phrases or sentences are structured in a similar pattern, such as standing up sitting down):

alliteration used (words in a series that begin with the same sound, such as lizards leap of leaves):

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.

analyze the effectiveness of this excerpt. how does it function within the speech as a whole? how does the structure of the excerpt to convey the speech's purpose and key points? support your argument with evidence from the speech. (10 points)

where is the writing? (so i can answer)

your answer would be: d) eye contact

when making an inference, the reader should be sure to support the inference with

evidence

a is an educated guess about what will happen.

c. prediction

when new information proves that a reader's prediction is wrong, the reader should

make a new prediction based on the new information.
