Choose the sentence that is not logically connected in the paragraph. (1) doctor henderson was a kind and gentle man. (2) his patients loved and respected him. his death made many of them sad. (3) as a young man, he decided to become a doctor and pursue a life of healing and comforting. (4) his work will long be remembered by the citizens of battle creek, michigan.

The correct answer is sentence number 3 ("As a young man, he decided to become a doctor and pursue a life of healing and comforting").

In this paragraph we're introduced to Doctor Henderson, some of his good qualities, and the impact that his death has made in the community of Battle Creek, Michigan.

If we analyse the logical progression of the paragraph, sentence number 3 seems to be out of place. Talking about what his aspirations were as a young man, right after speaking of his death and before stating he will be remembered dearly, feels like an interruption in the flow of the paragraph and a deviation of the main theme which is the impact of his loss on the community.

Hope this helps!

i pretty sure it is old

explanation:

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.
