Roberto is conducting research about the ethics of confining animals in zoos. which source on his list is the most credible? a site where people share stories about their experiences in zoos and their feelings about zoos a research study published on a university’s website about how being in a zoo affects animals an advertisement for a family vacation package that includes an amusement park and zoo a blog where a zoo owner discusses everyday life working at a zoo and caring for animals

a research study published on a university’s website about how being in a zoo affects animals.

The most credible source would be the university research study. The site where people share stories is based on hearsay and anecdotal evidence, which is not credible enough. The advertisement does not include research. Moreover, its intention is that of selling something, and not that of informing. Finally, the blog is biased as the zoo owner is likely to have a particular position and advocate for that in his writing. The university research, however, is likely to contain original research and facts that have been proven right.

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.
