Read this excerpt from the article "Clemente's Impact Wanes in Puerto Rico 40 Years after His Death." I didn't think I would learn much more about Clemente on this visit, and yet a few days ago my father, now a retired physician, told me of the time in the late 1960s when the perennial All-Star came to his office. Seeking treatment for the back trouble that dogged him for much of his career, Clemente sat among the other patients and patiently waited his turn. It was an ordinary gesture by an extraordinary man, one that made his legend just a bit bigger in my eyes. Based on this excerpt, which words best describe Roberto Clemente?
awkward and uncomfortable
successful and popular
humble and considerate
educated and intelligent

humble and considerate

Explanation:

According to the excerpt, baseball star Roberto Clemente was a respectful and unpresuming person. The reason is that the author's father was Clemente's physician and the time, who waited quietly in the waiting room as if he were an ordinary patient. Thus, it reflects Clemente's easy-going and modest personality. In fact, even though he was successful and popular, he did not consider himself better more important than anyone.

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.
