Read the selection below from "Civil Peace" by Chinua Achebe and answer the question that follows. As soon as the pound notes were placed in his palm Jonathan simply closed it tight over them and buried fist and money
inside his trouser pocket. He had to be extra careful because he had seen a man a couple of days earlier collapse into
near madness in an instant before that oceanic crowd because no sooner had he got his twenty pounds than some
heartless ruffian picked it off him. Though it was not right that a man in such an extremity of agony should be blamed yet
many in the queues that day were able to remark quietly at the victim's carelessness, especially after he pulled out the
innards of his pocket and revealed a hole in it big enough to pass a thief's head. But of course he had insisted that the
money had been in the other pocket, pulling it out too to show its comparative wholeness. So one had to be careful.
What do you think motivates the "many in the queues" to blame the man for being robbed? Mention both implied and
explicit details and defend both using evidence from the story.

a dictionary is the correct answer

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.
