Read this excerpt from a speech given at a campaign event: voters of the 29th district, i urge you to cast your vote for harlan hill for your next representative. hill has a strong record in favor of immigration rights, a hike in the minimum wage, and an end to tax loopholes for the ultra-rich. his opponent, the incumbent oliver b. slick, has proved consistently to be on the wrong side of history on every single one of these issues. let's send him packing on election day. which change is the best revision to reflect a formal tone for the speech's audience? a. change "a hike in the minimum wage" to "a raise in the minimum wage." b. change "tax loopholes for the ultra-rich" to "tax breaks for the very wealthy." c. change "hill has a strong record" to "harlan has a strong record." d. change "let's send him packing" to "let us send him a message."

no

explanation:

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.
