Read the excerpt from "On Becoming an Inventor" by Dean Kamen.
Which statement from the excerpt expresses an opinion
rather than a fact?
Albe
My next challenge was that I wanted to make things out
of metal, so I became interested in how to use a lathe, a
milling machine, and so on. I went to buy this new
equipment I thought I'd need and met a man who had a
machine shop of his own who was about to retire and
move to Florida. He allowed me to visit him after school
and on weekends to observe how he used all his tools. I
was hooked. When he retired I bought not only all his big
equipment but all his little toolboxes as well--they were
treasures!

c.to compare several aspects of the tragedy to other worldwide tragedies

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.

b. vast setting

explanation:

an epic is a poem of heroic proportions; it can't be short or focus on simple daily life event. it cannot be written with a casual tone as it narrates some heroic deeds of legendary figures.
