7. this question is based on the following paragraph. both petroleum and coal are made up of complex carbon-based molecules, and both originated with living creatures of some kind. both are vital sources of energy for the modern world and both were formed by geologic processes over millions of years. however, petroleum was mainly formed from the remains of ocean-dwelling microorganisms. coal, on the other hand, originated from decayed vegetation in ancient swamps and bogs. in any case, it took millions of years for both coal and oil to be produced. this is the case because it took that much time for overlying sediments to produce the unimaginable heat and pressure that would one day allow us to harvest these energy resources. what is one clue word or phrase in the passage that indicates a contrast? a. both b. because c. in any case d. however

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.
