Identify the organizational pattern from the following example. When I was a boy, I wanted to be a professional baseball player. I played in Little League for three
years, enjoying it very much. There I learned the fundamentals of baseball. As a young teenager, I
was active in Pony League. The competition was stiff, and instead of playing third base, my position
since Little League, I was changed to outfield. In high school, I was on the freshman team, then the
junior varsity, and finally I made the varsity team in my senior year.
After high school I was offered a contract to play professional baseball in the farm system of the
Minnesota Twins. I played Class A ball for two years, and I was on a Double A ball club for one year. I
only hit.245, and I soon realized that if I continued to make baseball my career, I would always be in
the minors, never on a major league team.
I was almost twenty-one years old then. I quit professional baseball and went to college. Now I'm
past the age of thirty-five, and I teach history at Washington High School in Timesberg, Iowa. I'm
also the varsity baseball coach, and I love it. I love baseball and always will.

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.

the narrator is a first person, participant one, who describes in the simple past tense important and difficult events in his earlier life. he also provides temporal markers as the month (january) and the time (12: 30 pm). finally the account of his experience is very detailed, to the extent that a participant narrator would talk the same way about his experiences. a good example of such detail is the mention of the “bovril ration” which historically was a native american food adopted by european explorers in arctic and antarctic regions due to its high level of calories.
