Read this excerpt from "the yellow wallpaper" by charlotte perkins gilman: it is the same woman, i know, for she is always creeping, and most women do not creep by daylight. i see her in that long shaded lane, creeping up and down. i see her in those dark grape arbors, creeping all around the garden. i see her on that long road under the trees, creeping along, and when a carriage comes she hides under the blackberry vines. i don't blame her a bit. it must be very humiliating to be caught creeping by daylight! i always lock the door when i creep by daylight. i can't do it at night, for i know john would suspect something at once. what information does the author provide about the narrator in this excerpt?

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.

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.
