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.

Which of these introductory paragraphs is missing a thesis statement? lori lanson wrote, “the city, no matter how small, is corrupt and unrepentant, while the sun shines brighter in the country, making people more wholesome.” like the writer, some people think living in the country is better than living in the city. others disagree, believing that the city is full of excitement, diversity, and opportunities. when deciding whether to live in the country or the city, first consider the pros and cons of living in each environment. did you know that there are over 33 grams of sugar in a can of soda? that is over the daily limit of total sugar for most people. so if just having one can of soda can put you over your daily limit, think about how all the sugar in cookies, candy, and other treats can add up. the average american has up to 82 grams of sugar each day. that's almost three times the recommended amount! americans consume large amounts of sugar in their daily diets, which leads to a variety of health problems. go outside on a windy day and you can feel the power of the energy of the future. wind energy is created by using large wind turbines which changes the energy from the wind into electricity to power our homes and workplaces. wind power is available every day of the year, rain or shine. a large fan, called a wind turbine, is made up of a blade, a rotor, a drive train, a tower, and other things like electrical wires. a clenched stomach; tight, painful shoulders and neck; a racing mind. these are just a few of the symptoms of stress that many people feel on a daily basis. the pressures of work, school, and relationships can affect our bodies and our minds. fortunately, we can counteract these negative symptoms. mindfulness techniques, such as daily meditation, have been proven to increase wellbeing and reduce stress, illness, and disease. people should consider making daily habits out of these practices.
