Read the excerpt from The Story of My Life by Helen Keller. Have you ever been at sea in a dense fog, when it seemed as if a tangible white darkness shut you in, and the great ship, tense and anxious, groped her way toward the shore with plummet and sounding-line, and you waited with beating heart for something to happen? I was like that ship Pefore my education began, only I was without compass or sounding-line, and had no way of knowing how near the harbour was. Which statement best describes the purpose of the imagery in the excerpt? A It allows the reader to feel how lost Helen feels before she learns to communicate.
B It allows the reader to feel how excited Helen feels when her new teacher arrives.
C It keeps the reader in suspense and eager to find out what happens to Helen. D It paints a picture for the reader of how dangerous it is to be lost at sea.​

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.
