Picture the Earth like a giant peach floating in space. On its surface is a thin skin called the crust. Instead of fleshy fruit, just below that is the rocky mantle. Deep in the center, like the peach's pit, sits the Earth's core. The inner core is solid, extremely hot and under immense pressure from all the rock above it. The outer core is molten, so it's liquid, and also very hot. This core extends 1,800 miles around from the center of the Earth.
The layer after the core is the mesosphere. This layer is mostly solid and extends outward another 1,500 miles. The asthenosphere is a thin layer, about 150 miles thick, at the border between the mantle and the crust. It is still very hot, and nearly (but not quite) a liquid. Because of this, pieces of the Earth's crust can move very slowly above it.
Which of the following is true about the Earth’s layers?

A: The asthenosphere is the thickest of Earth’s layers.

B: All of the layers are liquid and extremely hot.

C: There is little to no pressure on the solid core.

D:The Earth’s core has two different parts.

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.
