Calpurnia was something else again. she was all angles and bones; she was nearsighted; she squinted; her hand was wide as a bed slat and twice as hard. she was always ordering me out of the kitchen, asking me why i couldn't behave as well as jem when she knew he was older, and calling me home when i wasn't ready to come. our battles were epic and one-sided. calpurnia always won, mainly because atticus always took her side. she had been with us ever since jem was born, and i had felt her tyrannical presence as long as i could remember. pick three uses of figurative language in the excerpt above and explain what they mean and how they affect the reader's impression of calpurnia.

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.
