Consider the poems. "the corn harvest" by william carlos williams an excerpt from "after apple picking" by robert frost summer ! the painting is organized about a young reaper enjoying his noonday rest completely relaxed from his morning labors sprawled in fact sleeping unbuttoned on his back the women have brought him his lunch perhaps a spot of wine they gather gossiping under a tree whose shade carelessly he does not share the resting center of their workaday world. my long two-pointed ladder's sticking through a tree toward heaven still. and there's a barrel that i didn't fill beside it, and there may be two or three apples i didn't pick upon some bough. but i am done with apple-picking now. essence of winter sleep is on the night, the scent of apples; i am drowsing off. i cannot shake the shimmer from my sight i got from looking through a pane of glass i skimmed this morning from the water-trough, and held against the world of hoary grass. it melted, and i let it fall and break. but i was well upon my way to sleep before it fell, and i could tell what form my dreaming was about to take. magnified apples appear and reappear, stem end and blossom end, and every fleck of russet showing clear. what subject is emphasized in both poems? the amount of work accomplished the coworkers’ enjoyment the need for rest after work the desire to find a new job

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 simple predicate of the sentence is camped.

i'm thinking it would be when compound subjects are joined by or, nor,either-or, neither-nor.
