What is the text structure of the following paragraph? The chief and immediate cause of the Civil War was slavery. Southern states, including the 11 states that
formed the Confederacy, depended on slavery to support their economy. Southerners used slave labor to
produce crops, especially cotton. Although slavery was illegal in the Northern states, only a small proportion
of Northerners actively opposed it. The main debate between the North and the South on the eve of the war
was whether slavery should be permitted in the Western territories recently acquired during the Mexican War
(1846-1848), including New Mexico, part of California, and Utah. Opponents of slavery were concerned
about its expansion, in part because they did not want to compete against slave labor.

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.
