The legend of “Judgment of Paris” was believed to have started the Trojan War because the award for Paris of Troy would be the most beautiful woman, Helene, wife of the king Meleanus.

The legend begins at the celebration of the marriage of Peleus and Thetis (parents of Achilles), to which goddess Eris wasn’t invited. This was a great offence to Eris, so she decided to get her revenge by dividing gods with simple beauty contest. This beauty contest was true representation of the pride and narcissism of the goddesses. Eris brought one apple and said that only the fairest one. The goddesses who claimed this apple were Athena, Aphrodite and Hera. Because Zeus couldn’t decide, they decided that Paris of Troy should be the one to judge the contest. Hera offered to make him king of Europe and Asia, Athena offered wisdom and skill in war, and Aphrodite offered the world's most beautiful woman – Helen, wife of the king Meleanus. Paris accepted the Aphrodite’s offer. Paris has received Helen, but he also received the enmity of other gods, especially Athena and Hera. After this, king Meleanus began the war to retrieve his wife, which resulted in seven years of Trojan War. There is the brief allusion to the “Judgment of Paris” in the Iliad in lines 24.25–30.

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)

When i was young enough to still spend a long time buttoning my shoes in the morning, i'd listen toward the hall: daddy upstairs was shaving, in the bathroom, and mother downstairs was frying the bacon. they would begin whispering back and forth to each other up and down the stairwell. my father would whistle his phrase, my mother would try to whistle, then hum hers backi drew my buttonhook in and out and listened to it -know it was "the merry widow." the difference was, their song almost floated with laughter. how different from the record, which growled from the beginning, as if the victrola were only slowly being wound up. they kept it running between them, up and down the stairs where i was now just about ready to run clattering down and show them my shoes. what is the effect of the parallelism used in the above excerpt? it establishes the rhythm of a duet to echo the song. it expresses the same ideas. it mirrors opposite ideas. it is a paradox.
