If you read the paragraph:

"1 In our modern world, advertising plays a major role in our daily lives: it influences the decisions we make about our clothing, our food, and our cars. 2 Many shoppers insist on expensive name brand clothing, even if the quality is not better than the bargain priced items. 3 Because of advertising, children as young as two years old recognize and sing along with fast food melodies and beg parents for a particular brand of sweetened cereal. 4 Studies show that both men and women are greatly influenced by prime time commercials featuring automobiles. Which sentence states the main idea of the paragraph?"

...you'll recognize that the paragraph is speaking of advertising (propaganda).

Sentences 2, 3, and 4 are all examples of the main idea: "1 In our modern world, advertising plays a major role in our daily lives: it influences the decisions we make about our clothing, our food, and our cars."

Thus, you're answer is A Sentence 1

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.

analyze the effectiveness of this excerpt. how does it function within the speech as a whole? how does the structure of the excerpt to convey the speech's purpose and key points? support your argument with evidence from the speech. (10 points)
