Write an essay that compares and contrasts "the nose" by nikolai gogol to another
magical realist story, focusing mainly on the tone of the two stories. how does their
tone differ? what does their tone have in common?
your second story should be one that you find through research, but make sure it fits
the magical realist genre. look back over the lesson and ask yourself if it has the
appropriate tone and subject matter. consider what evidence from both stories best
supports your claim (or thesis), and make sure you present this evidence in the form
of quotes and paraphrases. also make sure you avoid plagiarism.
your essay should include the following elements:
• a claim that explains how you're comparing and contrasting your two stories in
the essay
• an introduction paragraph that grabs the reader's attention, gives background
information, and presents the claim
body paragraphs that give reasons and evidence for why readers should believe
your claim
• evidence in the form of quotes and paraphrases from both stories
• a conclusion paragraph that reminds readers of your claim and reasons, and
leaves readers with a lasting impression

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)

hi there!

sorry i was debating over answering this question or not, but i do believe it is a sin to be gay. in the beginning, god created man and he created women to be a for man. there are many "political" views on this topic but i believe the bible is right. in the kjv bible, leviticus 18: 22, god talks about how it it is an abomination for women to be with women and man to be with man. god knows that everybody is a sinner, and he gives everyone a chance to repent. i'm not forcing god's word on anybody, but i do believe it is a sin. no matter the sin, as long as you repent, god is willing to forgive, you just have to accept him as your lord and savior.
