Passage
Thesis Statement:
Summer reading is a valuable way to increase classroom performance because it helps students retain important skills from year to year.

Source 1:
A study conducted by Northern State University shows that the retention of critical reading skills is up to 25 percent higher in students who participate in the school's summer reading program.

Source 2:
A poll conducted by the Easthampton School District revealed that students who read books over the summer felt "better mentally prepared" for the upcoming school year than those who did not read.

Source 3:
Education expert Janna Knopp pointed out that "the brain isn't technically a muscle, but it might as well be. We need to exercise it, or it gets weak. It's no surprise that students who take up summer reading are in better shape when school starts up."

being ignored by someone and then accepting the fact was really tough

thats exactly the right answer

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.
