The rise of text messaging is harming students' writing skills. One study from the Association for Early Literacy showed that students who acquired cell phones capable of sending text messages received lower grades in writing than they had before they got the cell phones. So students need to limit the use of texting and focus on traditional reading and writing. Which statement best evaluates the use of evidence in this passage? O A. The evidence is credible because it supports the claim that texting is harmful. B. The evidence is not relevant because it does not support the claim that students are texting more than ever before.

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.
