Read this excerpt from Susan Butcher and the Iditarod Trail. Meanwhile “Wild Bill” faced a number of problems. The temperature had dropped to fifty degrees below zero. Speed was important, but he could not push his team too hard. The dogs' lungs might frost from breathing heavily in the Arctic air. To protect his own lungs, Bill breathed only through his nose. The bitter wind howled and hurled snow in his face. The trail was a blur.

The only choice Bill had was to move as quickly as possible.
Bill did not understand how to handle the cold Arctic weather.
Moving too quickly could cause Bill and his dogs to become ill or die.
Bill could not see the trail because of how quickly his team was moving.

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.
