Chapter Eighteen Questions:
1. Salva's project is revealed in this chapter. Were you surprised?

The drill goes on for three days. One day the workers seem excited and suddenly a whoosh of water shoots into the air. Nya is stunned to see that it is new water. Everyone cheers and a woman sings a song of celebration. Nya frowns, though; the water is very muddy.

Explanation:

Salva met a lot of workers there, including Michael from Ireland. Salva had always wanted to learn English but it wasn’t until Michael that he learned. Michael helped him learn to read and to play volleyball.

One day a rumor begins spreading through the camp, that about three thousand boys will get to go to America. The rumor is confirmed, and people can talk about nothing else. After a few months, a list is posted for people making it to the interview step. Most of the boys are younger than Salva.

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.
