Read the following speech and then answer the question below.

Pearl Harbor Address to the Nation
Given by Franklin Delano Roosevelt, delivered 8 December 1941, Washington, D.C.

Mr. Vice President, Mr. Speaker, Members of the Senate, and of the House of Representatives:

Yesterday, December 7th, 1941—a date which will live in infamy—the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan.

The United States was at peace with that nation and, at the solicitation of Japan, was still in conversation with its government and its emperor looking toward the maintenance of peace in the Pacific.

Indeed, one hour after Japanese air squadrons had commenced bombing in the American island of Oahu, the Japanese ambassador to the United States and his colleague delivered to our Secretary of State a formal reply to a recent American message. And while this reply stated that it seemed useless to continue the existing diplomatic negotiations, it contained no threat or hint of war or of armed attack.

It will be recorded that the distance of Hawaii from Japan makes it obvious that the attack was deliberately planned many days or even weeks ago. During the intervening time, the Japanese government has deliberately sought to deceive the United States by false statements and expressions of hope for continued peace.

The attack yesterday on the Hawaiian islands has caused severe damage to American naval and military forces. I regret to tell you that very many American lives have been lost. In addition, American ships have been reported torpedoed on the high seas between San Francisco and Honolulu.

Yesterday, the Japanese government also launched an attack against Malaya.

Last night, Japanese forces attacked Hong Kong.

Last night, Japanese forces attacked Guam.

Last night, Japanese forces attacked the Philippine Islands.

Last night, the Japanese attacked Wake Island.

And this morning, the Japanese attacked Midway Island.

Japan has, therefore, undertaken a surprise offensive extending throughout the Pacific area. The facts of yesterday and today speak for themselves. The people of the United States have already formed their opinions and well understand the implications to the very life and safety of our nation.

As Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy, I have directed that all measures be taken for our defense. But always will our whole nation remember the character of the onslaught against us.

No matter how long it may take us to overcome this premeditated invasion, the American people in their righteous might will win through to absolute victory.

I believe that I interpret the will of the Congress and of the people when I assert that we will not only defend ourselves to the uttermost, but will make it very certain that this form of treachery shall never again endanger us.

Hostilities exist. There is no blinking at the fact that our people, our territory, and our interests are in grave danger.

With confidence in our armed forces, with the unbounding determination of our people, we will gain the inevitable triumph—so help us God.

I ask that the Congress declare that since the unprovoked and dastardly attack by Japan on Sunday, December 7th, 1941, a state of war has existed between the United States and the Japanese empire.

Which appeal is used in the following quote?

Hostilities exist. There is no blinking at the fact that our people, our territory, and our interests are in grave danger.

QUICK PLS
Read "Sonnet" by James Weldon Johnson

My heart be brave, and do not falter so,
Nor utter more that deep, despairing wail.
Thy way is very dark and drear I know,
But do not let thy strength and courage fail;
For certain as the raven-winged night
Is followed by the bright and blushing morn,
Thy coming morrow will be clear and bright;
'Tis darkest when the night is furthest worn.
Look up, and out, beyond, surrounding clouds,
And do not in thine own gross darkness grope,
Rise up, and casting off thy hind'ring shrouds,
Cling thou to this, and ever inspiring hope:
Tho' thick the battle and tho' fierce the fight,
There is a power making for the right.

Then said Evangelist, Why not willing to die, since this life is attended with so many evils? The man answered, Because I fear that this burden is upon my back will sink me lower than the grave, and I shall fall into Tophet [Isa. 30:33] And, Sir, if I be not fit to go to prison, I am not fit, I am sure, to go to judgement, and from thence to execution; and the thoughts of these things make me cry

Then said Evangelist, If this be thy condition, why standest thou still? He answered, Because I know not whither to go. Then he gave him a parchment roll, and there was written within, Flee from the wrath to come. [Matt. 3.7]

The man therefore read it, and looking upon Evangelist very carefully, said, Whither must I fly? Then said Evangelist, pointing with his finger over a very wide field, Do you see yonder wicket-gate? [Matt. 7:13,14] The man said, No. Then said the other, Do you see yonder shining light? [Ps. 119:105; 2 Pet. 1:19] He said, I think I do. Then said Evangelist, Keep that light in your eye, and go up directly thereto: so shalt thou see the gate; at which, when thou knockest, it shall be told thee what thou shalt do.

CL111 ACTIVITY 4 Public speaking, also called oratory or oration, has traditionally meant the act of speaking face to face to a live audience. Today it includes any form of speaking (formally and informally) to an audience, including pre-recorded speech delivered over great distance by means of technology Confucius, one of many scholars associated with public speaking, once taught that if a speech was considered to be a good speech, it would impact the individuals' lives whether they listened to it direct, of not. His idea was that the words and actions of someone of power can influence the world Public speaking was developed as a primary sphere of knowledge in Greece and Home, where prominent thinkers codified it as a central part of rhetoric. Today, the art of public speaking has been transformed by newly available technology such as videoconferencing, multimedia presentations, and other nontraditional forms, but the essentials remain the same The function of public speaking depends entirely on what effect a speaker intends when addressing a particular audience. The same speaker, with the same strategic intention, might deliver a substantially different speech to two different audiences. The point is to change something, in the hearts, minds, of actions of the audience. Despite its name, public speaking in frequently delivered to a closed, limited audience with a broadly common outlook. Audiences may be ardent fans of the speaker, they may be hostile (affending an event unwillingly, or out of spile); or they may be random strangers (indifferent to a speaker on a soapbox in the street). All the same, effective speakers remember that even a small audience is not one single mass with a single point of view but a variety of individuals As a broad generalization, public speaking seeks either to reassure a troubled audience, or to awaken a complacent audience to something important. Having decided which of these approaches is needed, a speaker will then combine information and storytelling in the way most likely to achieve it QUESTIONS 1. What is the best title of the text?

With modern information and communication technologies making the world
smaller, many people question whether globalization is more positive or more
negative. As nations become more integrated into a single global market, our
traditional cultural barriers are being breached and more opportunities for
international exchange are being created. But with the fading borders between
nations, new questions arise. Does economic growth from the global market tend
to favor the rich and leave the poor behind? And, perhaps most importantly, will
globalization lead to homogenization, creating a world in which everything will
look, sound, and feel the same? Are nations, as well as individuals, losing their
identities as they become more globalized? Some have prophesied that in the
not-too-distant future, American tastes, habits, and values will completely
dominate the world. Is globalization really the same as "Americanization"?
One of the strongest arguments against globalization is that poorer countries
will not benefit from the global market. Inequalities will widen, and the poor will
be left out as the rich become more prosperous. Developed countries already have
a greater share of resources, and globalization will only reinforce their wealth and
power. The richest countries, including the United States, will pool their resources
and gain a monopoly over the global market. Some believe that globalization
should proceed, if at all, under a set of restrictive new rules on issues such as labor,
the environment, and human rights.
Will everyone's worldview soon be seen through a prism of America? People
drink Coke and Pepsi around the world. McDonald's now has more than 25,000
outlets in 119 countries; a new restaurant opens somewhere in the world every
17 hours. People around the world watch the same American movies and listen to
the same American music. In recent decades, we have witnessed the growth of
American mega-malls all over the world. The Internet functions primarily in the
English language and is dominated by American content. It is estimated that 70
percent of Internet Web sites are American. Have people begun to register the fact
that much of life is, indeed, American?
But globalization does not necessarily have to mean Americanization. Rather, it
could be a blending of many different cultures. For example, there is currently a
couloration of people from other nations to the United States, one that is
mass
unprecedented. Immigrants and refugees import their cultural values into the
United States as much as they assimilate American culture. Many would-be
refugees manage to make their way to the United States and import their cultural
values as well. In fact, America is not really a melting pot in the sense that
immigrants' cultures dissolve into American culture. In fact, they remain distinct.
Just as American tastes and values have influenced the world, American tastes and
values have been influenced: They have become more eclectic-in food, music,
and even religion.
Finally, one thing people fear most about globalization is a loss of individual
identity. They fear that a sense of shallowness might come from living in "the
global village, as tastes and cultural attitudes become more homogeneous.
