Read the passage.

Our community has done a wonderful job of creating and participating in forward-thinking eco-centered recycling programs for many years. It’s time we took the next step and considered community composting. We’ve done a great job with paper, aluminum, glass, and plastic, but now it’s time to address food waste head on. The latest data shows that of the millions of tons of food scraps discarded every year, only a small percentage—less than 6 percent—is kept out of landfills.

Explanation:

In this text, the author employs juxtaposition by presenting two contrasting ideas in order to encourage a comparison. The author first presents the idea of the recycling of paper, aluminum, glass, and plastic. He states that the community has done a great job with these objects. He then states that now is time to do the same with food waste. The purpose of such a contrast is to highlight the fact that food waste can be addressed in the same way as other waste.

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.
