Evening by victoria mary sackville-west when little lights in little ports come out, quivering down through water with the stars, and all the fishing fleet of slender spars range at their moorings, veer with tide about; when race of wind is stilled and sails are furled, and underneath our single riding-light the curve of black-ribbed deck gleams palely white, and slumbrous waters pool a slumbrous world; then, and then only, have i thought how sweet old age might sink upon a windy youth, quiet beneath the riding-light of truth, weathered through storms, and gracious in retreat. which of the following is true of this text in bold? a. it implies a coming change of seasons or situations. b. it explicitly describes a group of water birds. c. it explicitly describes boats that are docked. d. it implies chaos or a lack of control.

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.
