How does Paragraph 21 contribute to the development of the ideas presented in the text?
21
One of his friends, Phung Quang Hoa, wrote in Vietnamese: "I do not know what to write
while there is a feeling of emptiness in my mind."
It demonstrates that many people in the camp were unwilling to provide contact information for
friends to reach them after they had settled permanently in the U. S.
It connects the sense of emptiness experienced by the refugees while in the camp to their inability to
meaningfully unite their past experiences with their present-day lives.

It's not B: It provides a meaningful counterpoint to the previously expressed idea that the time the refugees spent in the U.S. camps was characterized by great joy and relief.

Explanation:

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.
