Medal reward!!!! Read this passage from the text: Can we forge against these enemies a grand and global alliance, North and South, East and West, that can assure a more fruitful life for all mankind? Will you join in that historic effort?
Kennedy is using irony to subtly pressure listeners into voicing their support for a global alliance. Kennedy is using metaphor to ask America's allies to form an alliance against the North and South. Kennedy is using a rhetorical question to ask for support in making life better for everyone. Kennedy is using simile to compare America's allies in the North and South with those in the East and West.

one more????? Read this sentence from the passage: Now the trumpet summons us again-not as a call to bear arms, though arms we need; not as a call to battle, though embattled we are-but a call to bear the burden of a long twilight struggle, year in and year out, "rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation"-a struggle against the common enemies of man: tyranny, poverty, disease, and war itself. What effect does Kennedy mean for this reference to battle to have on the readers? (4 points) To ask them to join in the struggle against enemy nations To encourage them to support those serving in the military To inspire them to work together toward a common good To warn them that war with aggressive nations is about to happen
To warn them that war with aggressive nations is about to happen
