N Read the excerpt from part 2 of Zeitoun.
Abc
Zeitoun went outside, the air humid and gusty. He tied the canoe to the back porch. The water was
whispering through the cracks in the back fence, rising up. It was flowing into his yard at an astonishing rate.
As he stood, it swallowed his ankles and crawled up his shins.
Back inside, he continued to move everything of value upward. As he did, he watched the water erase the
floor and climb the walls. In another hour there was three feet of water indoors. And his house was three feet
above street level.
What conclusion can readers draw about this character vs. nature conflict?
O Zeitoun's strength allows him to save all of his possessions.
As a result of the flood's force, Zeitoun's confidence is lost.
O Despite Zeitoun's competence, his home sustains damage.
O Zeitoun's fear of the flood forces him to abandon his efforts.

answer: no

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.
