Read the passage from "by the waters of babylon.”
"this is a very strong dream," he said." it may eat you up."
"i am not afraid," i said and looked at him with both eyes. my voice sounded thin in my ears but that was because of the smoke.
he touched me on the breast and the forehead. he gave me the bow and the three arrows.
"take them," he said. "it is forbidden to travel east. it is forbidden to cross the river. it is forbidden to go to the place of the gods. all these things are forbidden."
"all these things are forbidden," i said, but it was my voice that spoke and not my spirit. he looked at me again.
"my son," he said. "once i had young dreams. if your dreams do not eat you up, you may be a great priest. if they eat you, you are still my son. now go on your journey."
which theme is best supported by the resolution described in this passage?
dreams can predict the future and be a guide.
change is necessary to achieve growth.
spirits communicate to warn people of danger.
parents always strive to protect their children.

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.
