Read the passage from “initiation.” millicent and bev took a bus ahead of the rest of the girls; they had to stand up on the way to lewiston square. bev seemed very cross about something. finally she said, "you were talking with herb dalton at lunch today." "no," millicent said honestly. "well, i saw you smile at him. that's practically as bad as talking. remember not to do it again." which conclusion is best supported by the passage? millicent feels confused by bev. bev wants to embarrass millicent. millicent is afraid of bev. bev is jealous of millicent.

he correct answer to the question above is:

D.Bev is jealous of Millicent.

Bev is jealous because Millicent seemed to be interested with Herb Dalton. Smiling seemed to be an indication of her fascination as interpreted by Bev as action speaks louder than words.

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.
