Dominic was balancing on the fence. No matter how many times he fell off or got hurt, he never learned his lesson. Last
spring, he'd sprained his left ankle. Last fall, he'd fractured his right wrist. One summer, he'd spent six weeks with a cast on his
leg. He just never learned
His older sister, Sophia, was watching from the porch. She knew that Mom would come out any second and say, "Dominic
Salvatore Mazzello, you come in this house immediately."
"Hey, Sophia, watch what I can do!" Dominic yelled from the fence,
He got up on his toes like a gymnast on a balance beam and stretched toward the sky
"You're going to falll" Sophia shouted back
"Oh, I am not! You're just jealous because I can do this and you can't."
Dominic reached higher and higher. Suddenly, his right foot slipped. Then, his left foot slipped. Sophia saw her brother falling,
falling, falling
As Dominic neared the ground, Sophia leaped from the porch, dashed to the fence, and caught her little brother in her arms.
"Nice catch, Wonder Woman," Mom called from the front porch. Sophia and Dominic both smiled. But Dominic stopped
smiling as soon as Mom said, "Dominic Salvatore Mazzello, you come in this house immediately."
Why does Mom call Sophia "Wonder Woman"?
O A. because Sophia resembles Wonder Woman
OB. because Dominic reads old comic books
C. because Sophia performs a heroic act
O
OD. because Dominic is always getting rescued

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)
