5 Ella is writing a paper in which she wants to prove that the women of A Tree Grows in Brooklyn are strong despite their looks. Which
of the following quotes best supports this thesis?
OA. Before they went to bed, Francie and Neeley had to read a page of the Bible and a page from Shakespeare. That was a
rule. Mama used to read the two pages to them each night until they were old enough to read for themselves.
ОВ. It's come at least... the time when you can no longer stand between your children and heartache... they walk out in all
innocence, and they walk right into the grief that you'd give your life to spare them.
OC. Those were the Rommely women: ... They were all slender, frail creatures with wondering eyes and soft fluttery
voices... But they were made out of thin invisible steel.
OD. Francie sat on a chair and was surprised that it felt the same as it had in Lorimer Street. She felt different. Why didn't the
chair feel different?

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)

the italian poet francesco petrarch did! (:
