Which sentences (more than one) in this excerpt from ernest shackleton's south! suggest that the author is writing a memoir?

a) i looked down a sheer precipice to a chaos of crumpled ice 1500 ft. below. there was no way down for us.

b) the country to the east was a great snow upland, sloping upwards for a distance of seven or eight miles to a height of over 4000 ft.

c) our path lay between the glaciers and the outfalls, but first we had to descend from the ridge on which we stood.

d) this tremendous gully, cut in the snow and ice by the fierce winds blowing round the mountain, was semicircular in form, and it ended in a gentle incline.

e) we passed through it, under the towering precipice of ice, and at the far end we had another meal and a short rest.

A, C, and E because a memoir is a part of someone's life written by them. Therefore any sentences indicating that it was written in first person narrative would be the correct answers because the author is retelling what they had done during the event that they are writing about.

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.
