Answer from: Yumimiku6539

B. Inspire.

Further Explanation:

Roosevelt’s speech uses diction, which reveals his distinct choice of words in the speech. His unique sense of expression brings out the tone of his message in an apt manner. The unique choice of words brings out the writer’s specific literary style. The diction does not remain limited to merely a choice of words, but also to the effectiveness of imparting the importance and meaning of every word. The style of pronunciation used in diction also regulates the tone and mood of the speech. The speech has to be delivered in such a manner that the audience is able to understand and fully intercept the message that would be imparted through the speech. The other terms through which diction is expressed is termed as enunciation and articulation. Note that in this speech, Roosevelt emphasizes the word ‘Nation’ which is an important part of diction as it emphasizes the text through a careful repetition of the word. In his speech, he tries to make the audience understand the importance of the nation, and the great role played by the citizens to ensure the greatness of the nation. The nation is an established institution, giving identity to its citizens, and protection with resources to survive. The citizens of the nation play a great role in maintaining the greatness of the nation. Thus the main objective of Roosevelt’s speech is to consolidate the citizens’ faith in the Greatness of America so that they would be inspired to continue to contribute to the hard times that the country was going through.

1. find at least 9 adjectives from this opening passage used to describe the setting of the story- "to build a fire" setting: day had broken cold and gray, exceedingly cold and gray, when the man turned aside from the main yukon trail and climbed the high earth-bank, where a dim and little-travelled trail led eastward through the fat spruce timberland. it was a steep bank, and he paused for breath at the top, excusing the act to himself by looking at his watch. it was nine o'clock. there was no sun nor hint of sun, through there was not a cloud in the sky. it was a clear day, and yet there seemed an intangible pall over the face of things, subtle gloom that made the day dark, and that was due to the absence of sun. this fact did not worry the man. he was used to the lack of sun. it had been days since he had seen the sun, and he knew that a few more days must pass before that cheerful orb, due south, would just peep above the sky-line and dip immediately from view.
