Shortly after the bombing of pearl harbor by the japanese during world war ii, british prime minister winston churchill came to the united states to meet with president franklin roosevelt. read the following excerpt from a speech he delivered on christmas eve. who is his intended audience? i spend this anniversary and festival far from my country, far from my family, yet i cannot truthfully say that i feel far from home. whether it be the ties of blood on my mother's side, or the friendships i have developed here over many years of active life, or the commanding sentiment of comradeship in the common cause of great peoples who speak the same language, who kneel at the same altars and, to a very large extent, pursue the same ideals, i cannot feel myself a stranger here in the centre and at the summit of the united states. i feel a sense of unity and fraternal association which, added to the kindliness of your welcome, convinces me that i have a right to sit at your fireside and share your christmas joys. a. the children of people living in england b. winston churchill’s distant relatives in the united states c. american and british citizens d. the nations involved in the war

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.
