WILL MARK BRAINILYIST AND GIVE 15 PTS.!! Read this excerpt from a play.

(The scene begins aboard a whale-watching boat. Many students slouch on benches, others lean lazily on ferry railings. A few students thumb through shiny brochures, shaking their heads and grumbling quietly.)

GREGOR: This is not what I expected.

OMAR: Yeah. Whale watching? More like wave watching. What a rip off.

(OMAR turns to a whale picture in his brochure and holds it up to the group. A few heads nod, but it is not the reaction he hoped for. He retreats to a quiet bench. A splash a few yards out in the water stirs the group, and many rise.)

GREGOR: That’s more like it. Guys, c’mere. Look here, just below the surface. (Students lean forward, many pull phones and cameras from their coat pockets.)

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.
