Read the following paragraph and answer the question that follows. "A tiger dies and leaves a skin. A man dies and leaves a name." This ancient Chinese proverb illustrates the
fundamental quality of man that distinguishes him from the animals-the power to think and reason. He can
decide what his future will hold. In the molding and shaping of his life, man exerts an Influence on all whom
he encounters. He has the ability to choose the type of influence he will have. A tiger, unlike a man, has no
control over either his environment or his destiny. Though he is a majestic animal that prowls the jungle with
pride and assurance, terrorizing both man and beast, his actions are governed only by the laws of nature. His
death leaves the world unchanged; he exerts no lasting Influence. When a man dies, however, he may
continue to Influence others through his accomplished goals and through the traits and Ideas he has passed
on

Question: What pattern of organization does this paragraph follow?

Comparison¬contrast. The text shown above describes the differences between 'the tiger' and 'the man' in an orderly fashion. We see that the tiger is unlike a man who has freewill over his actions, the tiger can only follow the laws of nature as it's instinct controls it's life. Man was gifted a conscious to choose and decide things.

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.
