Identify the toneotional logical and confident Pairs Speech Tone What constitutes an American? Not colour nor race nor religion. Not the pedigree of his family nor the place of his birth. Not the coincidence of his citizenship. Not his social status nor his bank account. Not his trade nor his profession. An American is one who loves justice and believes in the dignity of man. . . . An American is one who will sacrifice property, ease and security in order that he and his children may retain the rights of free men. An American is one in whose heart is engraved the immortal second sentence of the Declaration of Independence. (Harold Ickes, What Is an American?) arrowBoth Working together, America has done well. Our economy is breaking records with more than twenty-two million new jobs, the lowest unemployment in 30 years, the highest home ownership ever, the longest expansion in history. Our families and communities are stronger. Thirty-five million Americans have used the family leave law; eight million have moved off welfare. Crime is at a 25-year low. Over ten million Americans receive more college aid, and more people than ever are going to college. (President Bill Clinton, Farewell Address) arrowBoth But such is not the state of the case. I say it with a sad sense of disparity between us. I am not included within the pale of this glorious anniversary! Your high independence only reveals the immeasurable distance between us. The blessings in which you this day rejoice are not enjoyed in common. The rich inheritance of justice, liberty, prosperity, and independence bequeathed by your fathers is shared by you, not by me. . . . This Fourth of July is yours, not mine. You may rejoice, I must mourn. (Frederick Douglass, The Hypocrisy of American Slavery) arrowBoth We are doing a tremendous amount through the home economics colleges to help people to learn how to live in their homes, to better their standards of material living. We have got to think in exactly the same way about helping them to live mentally and to attain better standards, and we can do it only through the children. We can do ground work with the children; we must begin with them but we have got to do a tremendous amount with the older people. (Eleanor Roosevelt, What Libraries Mean to the Nation)
