Exercise #1: In this exercise, Dr. Frankie has been hard at work cooking up
some sentences. Can you identify the types of sentences he has created?
1. The original monster wasn't Boris Karloff; it was a character
created more than 190 years ago by a twenty-one-year-old author named
Mary Shelley.
2. The full title of Mary Shelley's novel is Frankenstein;
or the Modern Prometheus.
3. Prometheus stole fire from the gods in order
to bring wisdom to mankind, and Shelley's gruesome tale
was influenced by that ancient Greek myth.
4. Even though Prometheus thought he was doing
the world a favor, the gods were angry, so they chained him to a rock
where an eagle ate his liver out every day.

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.

analyze the effectiveness of this excerpt. how does it function within the speech as a whole? how does the structure of the excerpt to convey the speech's purpose and key points? support your argument with evidence from the speech. (10 points)

the correct answer would be:  

a. adverb phrase

the correct answer would be d, i never like waking up.

explanation:

iambic tetrameter is a meter which is basically a line consisting of four feet of iambic and it is used in poetry. it consists of unstressed syllables followed by a stressed syllable. in this question, the only statement which is giving the feel of being stressed is option d, which says that i never like waking up. it means the person is feeling stressed whenever he wakes up. he never likes to wake up and and whenever he wakes up, he doesn't like it. so a sense or feel of being stressed is in this statement.
