So here, we are combining two ideas/sentences. The first being "In June 1776, Thomas Jefferson wrote the first draft of the Declaration of Independence." The second being "It was formally adopted by Congress on July 4 of that year."

Some things to keep in mind which will help to make the correct answer clear:

1. When combining two sentences or ideas, use conjunctions which are usually used after commas. For example, the ", and" in "Today I went to the park with my cousins, and then we went to the ice cream store."

2. Commas are used to insert a pause when speaking.

3. Semicolons ";" are only used when joining two independent sentences (or two complete sentences that make sense on their own).

Hopefully that makes your answer clear. Have a lovely day! :)

Answer from: Quest

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)
