Bonjour, j'ai un devoir en anglais sur un texte si quelqu'un peut m'aider svp: a petition calling for the government to consider closing schools across the UK because of coronavirus has surged to more than 250,000 signatures in the six days since it was launched. The petition hosted on Parliament's website calls for the government "to at least consider closing schools / colleges down in the coming weeks or as soon as possible, in addition to taking necessary actions to prevent further spread". The petition, launched by a user named Sami Attout, argues: we would like the government or parliament to enforce this action due to the growing fear among parents and students that attend school. The ability to focus or concentrate is affected, in addition to the growing fears of coronavirus. The petition has easily met the 100,000 signatures requirement needed for Parliament to schedule a debate on the topic. With Poland, Greece and Ukraine joining Italy in closing all schools and universities, there has been speculation that authorities in the UK will take similar action once the number of confirmed covid-19 cases hits a certain level. Other countries, including France and Germany, have opted to keep most schools open, despite having more confirmed cases than the UK. The Department for Education in England said possible measures such as school closures "will be continually kept under review and the impact of all measures will be carefully considered. ASSIGNMENT: 1) Pick up all the information about the petition? 2) what are the main arguments in favor of closing down the schools in the UK? 3) what is the British government's answer to the petition? 4) what do you think about closing the schools in France? MERCI!!

what is the question you are trying to ask here

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.
