Answer from: rodriguezjeslin086

I would invite Della over Dinner.

Explanation:

Della and Jim are newlywed partners in O. Henry's short story "The Gift of The Magi". They both decided to give each other a precious gift on the occasion of Christmas. Because of poor financial condition, they both sell their most precious possessions - Della her lustrous long hair and Jim his gold pocket watch inherited from his father.

It would be a tough choice because both characters are each other's replica. They are identical. Both sacrifice their most precious possessions just to make the other happy.

It would also be tough decision to invite only one of them, because without the other partner, the invited one would not be the person he or she really is.

The preference of Della over Jim for inviting over dinner seems only because of the fact that she is presented and described more in the story. I know her a bit more than I know Jim.

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.
