B. Structure Turn the following dialogue into the reported speech.
A. I believe that every profession is very important. But then, some are more important than others.
B. What are you trying to imply? I think it is not right to say that some professions are more important than others. We should just agree that each profession is very important.
A Oh, no, I don t agree. You should agree that there are some professions which the people can do without. Nobody can live without the farmers, but we would not die if there are no mechanics.
B. That is where you miss the point. While the farmers feeds us and keeps us alive, the mechanic keeps our engines and machines working. Even the farmer works better because the mechanic is around to maintain his tools and tractors.

B

the speech this question is referring to is president kennedy's special message to the congress on urgent national needs, may 25, 1961

kennedy responds in a very direct and concrete way to those thinking that communism is a positive system:

"yet their aggression is more often concealed than open. they have fired no missiles; and their troops are seldom seen. they send arms, agitators, aid, technicians and propaganda to every troubled area. but where fighting is required, it is usually done by others--by guerrillas striking at night, by assassins striking alone--assassins who have taken the lives of four thousand civil officers in the last twelve months in vietnam alone--by subversives and saboteurs and insurrectionists, who in some cases control whole areas inside of independent nations." (kennedy)

president kennedy presents communism as cowardly, as a hidden and treacherous weapon that strikes from the shadows like thieves, he represents the system as not even being capable of showing and open and overt attack or confrontation. to finish up the response, he expresses that the system attacks even a country's idependence and freedom.
