Being a good reader is somewhat like driving a car, both reader and driver must learn to shift gears skillfully. 2Just as road conditions that require slow, careful driving call for first gear, a difficult text requires slow,
thoughtful reading to be understood and remembered. Similarly, the driver can shift to second gear if he
wants to go slightly faster. Second gear is useful to a reader of textual material which is not difficult but
which must be remembered. On the open road a driver shifts to third. SThird gear In reading is used for
pleasure reading of magazines or novels. Both reader and driver sometimes use passing gear. This gear is
particularly useful to a reader who wants to skim a chapter as a review for a test or to preview an article to
determine whether he wishes to read It Just as driving In first gear at all times Is Inappropriate and
Inefficient, reading speeds must be shifted to suit conditions.

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.
