Read the excerpt from "The Storyteller." "She did all that she was told, she was always truthful, she kept her clothes clean, ate milk puddings as though they were jam tarts, learned her lessons perfectly, and was polite in her manners.”

"Was she pretty?” asked the bigger of the small girls.

"Not as pretty as any of you,” said the bachelor, "but she was horribly good.”

There was a wave of reaction in favour of the story; the word horrible in connection with goodness was a novelty that commended itself. It seemed to introduce a ring of truth that was absent from the aunt’s tales of infant life.

How does the underlined sentence contribute to the theme that culture can limit our thinking?

It indicates that the aunt’s portrayal of right and wrong is inauthentic and unconvincing.
It shows that children and adults have opposing perspectives on what goodness is.
It characterizes the children as eager to accept any viewpoint that disagrees with their aunt’s.
It satirizes the bachelor’s conception of goodness by comparing it to the one in the aunt’s story.

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.
