Which of these is the best question to address the societal issue raised in this excerpt? does technology or hinder meaningful communication? should proper spelling and grammar be required to send texts? is it dangerous to text while engaged in other activities? how will technology affect the music industry of the future?

The best question to adress one of the societal issues of this time is:

Is it dangerous to text while engaged in other activities?

Explanation:

we, as a society, need to learn to live less behind screens and more in the real world

A. Does technology help or hinder meaningful communication?

Explanation:

The passage is here: At last he found Rebecca, smiling, holding Cara-Ann in her arms. She was dancing. They were too far away for Alex to reach them, and the distance felt irrevocable, a chasm that would keep him from ever again touching the delicate silk of Rebecca’s eyelids, or feeling, through his daughter’s ribs, the scramble of her heartbeat. Without the zoom, he couldn’t even see them. In desperation, he T’d Rebecca, pls wAt 4 me, my bUtiful wyf, then kept his zoom trained on her face until he saw her register the vibration, pause in her dancing, and reach for it.

This gap was reached from using technology. As you can see texting is not as meaningful as getting the point across is more difficult. If he had decided to find a way to speak in person, he could have more easily made a connection with them, but the accessibility of technology stopped him from doing so.

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.
