Read the excerpt from lee child’s "a simple way to create suspense". like the old cartoon of the big fish eating a smaller fish eating a very small fish, you’ll find out the big answer after a string of smaller drip-drip-drip answers. the big answer is parceled out slowly and parsimoniously. which statement by karin slaughter shows a similar central idea? a) i want it to change them, and i want my reader to feel that change through the character, as if it's them. b) there has to be this peeling away of the onion, where you get to the core of the character as the story unfolds. c)i mean, you know, crime is such a great tool for talking about the human condition, and that's what i like to do. d)if you think about "to kill a mockingbird," for instance, some of those courtroom scenes are more tense than any grisham novel, you know.

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.
