Select the correct text in the passage.
Read this excerpt from Franklin D. Roosevelt’s “Four Freedoms” speech. Which part shows his purpose in making the speech to Congress?
During sixteen long months this assault has blotted out the whole pattern of democratic life in an appalling number of independent nations, great and small. The assailants are still on the march, threatening other nations, great and small.

Therefore, as your President, performing my constitutional duty to "give to the Congress information of the state of the Union," I find it, unhappily, necessary to report that the future and the safety of our country and of our democracy are overwhelmingly involved in events far beyond our borders.

Armed defense of democratic existence is now being gallantly waged in four continents. If that defense fails, all the population and all the resources of Europe, Asia, Africa and Australasia will be dominated by the conquerors. Let us remember that the total of those populations and their resources in those four continents greatly exceeds the sum total of the population and the resources of the whole of the Western Hemisphere—many times over.

Across the country, school board members and school officials have opposed a time change, despite the research findings.

disrupted. Many parents are also opposed to a later start time, saying it would result in a later end to the school day, and thus
reduce family time and job opportunities.

They believe that more research is needed before start times can change.

We Lived Happily During the War
BY ILYA KAMINSKY



And when they bombed other people’s houses, we
protested
but not enough, we opposed them but not
enough. I was

in the street of money in the city of money in the country of money,
our great country of money, we (forgive us)
lived happily during the war.
