Read the excerpt from "In Response to Executive Order 9066". I gave her a packet of tomato seeds
and asked her to plant them for me, told her
when the first tomato ripened
she’d miss me.

The narrator gives the impression that
she is an amateur gardener.
she is, in fact, guilty of espionage.
she is hoping the Americans win the war.
she will be gone for a long time.

she will be gone for a long time.

Explanation:

From the excerpt given, the narrator says that she gave someone a packet of tomato seeds and asks her to plant it for her and that when the first tomato ripened, she would be missed. This gives the impression that she would be gone for a long time.

A tomato takes an average of fifty days to grow and start producing fruits, so saying that when the first tomato ripened that he would be missed shows that she would be gone for a long time.

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.
