Read the excerpt from the strange case of dr. jekyll and mr. hyde.

between these two, i now felt i had to choose.

now read the excerpt from darcy’s essay on dr. jekyll.

in the story, dr. jekyll repeatedly talks about having only two choices. yet i know from my own experience that there are usually many options to choose from when dealing with human behavior—not just good or evil. this leads me to conclude that dr. jekyll had a strict, uncompromising, black-and-white view of the world that didn’t leave room for half measures and shades of gray.

in this excerpt, darcy is

writing a summary.
making a prediction.
making an inference.
describing a strategy.

In this excerpt, Darcy is making an inference.

An inference may be described as a conclusion or an opinion a person draws from evidence and reasoning. Taking this into account, what Darcy is doing is analyzing Dr. Jekyll's behaviour and, based on that evidence, expressing that he is strict and does not leave room for half measures and shades of gray.

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.
