Discuss possible reasons why there are so few literary milestones recorded for the early years in Britain.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

The possible reasons why there are so few literary milestones recorded for the early years in Britain could be that most of the stories of that early British years were passed via oral tradition.

People memorized the stories and were passed orally to other people, families, and further generations.

The name historians have is "oral art form." Experts had to write the manuscripts by hand. It was not an easy task and was a slow process. Not all knew how to write, so it was most common to tell the stories than to write them. That is why there are so few literary milestones about the early Anglo-Saxon period.

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.

the answer should be the first one. "many people find his lyrics very moving."

it by far makes the most grammatical sense and is very objective, removing any first person from the original sentence and keeping with the sentence fluency.
