Ricardo sat at his desk, anxiously waiting for his teacher to hand back his math exam. He had studied for the test for weeks. After his last report card, Ricardo realized that he needed to work on his math grade. His older brother, Lorenzo, was a mathematics genius, and he helped Ricardo study for the test. The two spent many afternoons going over practice problems. Although he felt confident while taking the test, Ricardo was now second guessing every answer. He wondered if all the studying had helped his grade. The teacher put the test on Ricardo's desk. Ricardo flipped it over and saw that he'd earned an A! He smiled, happy with the result of his hard work. What is the climax of the story?

i think this is it plz check

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.
