Read the passage. from “the story of an hour” she could see in the open square before her house the tops of trees that were all aquiver with the new spring life. the delicious breath of rain was in the air. in the street below a peddler was crying his wares. the notes of a distant song which someone was singing reached her faintly, and countless sparrows were twittering in the eaves. considering the news mrs. mallard has just received, what is ironic about the details she notices through her window? a death has just occurred yet she sees signs of new life. she has been weeping yet she feels that it is about to rain. she closes her door yet she hears birds and a person singing. she is inside her house yet she can look at the tops of the trees.

A death has just occurred yet she sees signs of new life.

One would expect a much darker scene to set the tone for Mrs. Mallard's grief. However, instead of sorrow, Mrs. Mallard sees her chance for a new life, one free from her husband's. The new life is hers. A life where she gets to make the decisions and choose what she wants without having to think of another person.

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.
