PLEASE HURRY, THIS IS DUE TODAY, BRAINLIEST AND 100 POINTS FOR WHOEVER ANSWERS FIRST It was awful cold when the Old Man hit me on the ribs with his elbow and said, "Get up, boy and fix that fire." The stars were still up, frosty in the sky, and wind was whistling around the corners of the tent. You could see the fire flicker just a little against the black of the swamp. Mr. Howard was asleep on the other side of me, snoring on his pine-needle bed. His mustache was moving like a March gras in the wind.

With great effort I walked out into the night. The only sounds were the crickets and the snoring from the other tent. Ther were two kinds of snores. One was squeaky. And the other one sounded like a bull caught in a bared wire fence. I knew the bull sound came from Pete.

The dialogue and actions of the old man show that he -

A. likes to be waited on.

B. is very friendly.

C. is concerned about people.

D. is very lonely most of the time.

Hoped I helped -

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.
