Summarize the following passage: when one hears the term “reality” applied to a television show, one might expect that the events occurred naturally or, at the least, were not scripted, but this is not always the case. many reality shows occur in unreal environments, like rented mansions occupied by film crews. these living environments do not reflect what most people understand to be “reality.” worse, there have been accusations that events not captured on film were later restaged by producers. worse still, some involved in the production of “reality” television claim that the participants were urged to act out story lines premeditated by producers. with such accusations floating around, it’s no wonder many people take reality tv to be about as real as the sitcom.

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.
