Select the correct text in the passage. Read this excerpt from a speech by Eleanor Roosevelt after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. Which sentence best illustrates what Eleanor Roosevelt wants her audience to understand after listening to her speech? I should like to say just a word to the women in the country tonight. I have a boy at sea on a destroyer, for all i know he may be on his way to the Pacific. Two of my children are in coast cities on the Pacific. Many of you all over the country have boys in the services who will now be called upon to go into action. You have friends and families in what has suddenly become a danger zone. You cannot escape anxiety. You cannot escape a clutch of fear at your heart and yet I hope that the certainty of what we have to meet will make you rise above these fears. We must go about our daily business more determined than ever to do the ordinary things as well as we can and when we find a way to do anything more in our communities to help others, to build morale, to give a feeling of security, we must do it. Whatever is asked of us I am sure we can accomplish it. We are the free and unconquerable people of the United States of America.â

Read the quotation from "an occurrence at owl creek bridge." and now he became conscious of a new disturbance. striking through the thought of his dear ones was a sound which he could neither ignore nor understand, a sharp, distinct, metallic percussion like the stroke of a blacksmithââŹâ˘s hammer upon the anvil; it had the same ringing quality. he wondered what it was, and whether immeasurably distant or near byââŹâit seemed both. its recurrence was regular, but as slow as the tolling of a death knell. he awaited each stroke with impatience andââŹâhe knew not whyââŹâapprehension. the intervals of silence grew progressively longer, the delays became maddening. with their greater infrequency the sounds increased in strength and sharpness. they hurt his ear like the thrust of a knife; he feared he would shriek. what he heard was the ticking of his watch. which best describes the effect of the narration in the excerpt? it suggests that the man being executed feels tranquil and at peace. it suggests that the narrator is sympathetic to the man being executed. it suggests that the plot will become less tense as the story continues. it suggests that the story will become more intense and mysterious.
