In which of the following does the author use figurative language to reach his or her
audience?
"the writer's job is to find the argument, the approach, the angle, the wording
that will take the reader with him. this is seldom easy, and it is particularly hard
in subjects that have been much discussed: college football, fraternities,
popular music, is chivalry dead? , and the like."
"this momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of
negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. it came
as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity.
but one hundred years later, the negro still is not free. one hundred years
later, the life of the negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation
and the chains of discrimination."
"in the corner next to the toilet was the sink at which we washed, and the
square tub in which my mother did our clothes. above it, tacked to the shelf on
which were pleasantly ranged square, blue-bordered white sugar and spice jars,
hung calendars from the public national bank on pitkin avenue and the
minsker progressive branch of the workmen's circle; receipts for the payment
of insurance premiums, and household bills on a spindle; two little boxes
engraved with hebrew letters. one of these was for the poor, the other to buy
back the land of israel."
"to begin with its whole architecture and fittings are uncompromisingly
victorian. it has no glass-topped tables or other modern miseries, and, on the
other hand, no sham roof-beams, ingle-nooks or plastic panels masquerading as
oak. the grained woodwork, the ornamental mirrors behind the bar, the cast-
iron fireplaces, the florid ceiling stained dark yellow by tobacco-smoke, the
stuffed bull's head over the mantelpiece -everything has the solid, comfortable
ugliness of the nineteenth century."

free time is when all my homework and chores have been done for the day and i am "free" to do things that i enjoy doing.

usually i spend time watching television. as my favorite tv shows come on at specific times, i make sure that i finish my homework and chores well before the shows. otherwise i will have to miss them. mostly i manage to watch the shows but sometimes extra homework or chores may cause me to miss a show or two, but it is rare. anyhow if i know that i am definitely not able to catch a show in time, i will just set the video recorder to tape the show sothe evening when the weather is fine, i sometimes go for a stroll around the neighborhood with my friends. this is the time when most the neighbors have come home from work or school. we say hello to those whom we know. they are mostly friendly people and they acknowledge our greetings. once in a while we come upon unfriendly neighbors but we just ignore them and carry on. that i can watch it later.

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.
