Individuality vs. Conformity Discussion Emerson and Thoreau, as Transcendentalists, espouse the idea of individualism over following the crowd.
What do you think? How important is individuality? When do you think conformity is necessary or
preferable? In what situations have you found yourself deciding whether to follow your own path or the
path of others?
In two full paragraphs, discuss how you have grappled with individuality versus conformity in your own
life, and discuss your own philosophy on this topic.

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.

analyze the effectiveness of this excerpt. how does it function within the speech as a whole? how does the structure of the excerpt to convey the speech's purpose and key points? support your argument with evidence from the speech. (10 points)

that is literally a whole assignment and i'm not sure anyone in their right mind or even wrong mind is going to do an entire assignment for someone just for 100 points on a website. sorry to tell you like

(you didn't attach a copy of the poem, but i'm answering as best as i can)

since a simile compares two unlike things using like or as, it kind of gives an item the ability to do something it can't.

example: "the player was like a tiger on the field"

in this sentence, the simile conveys the idea that the player was fast and strong, like a tiger.
