Question

How does the printed text compare to the image?

Answer 1

Read the passage.

excerpt from "Four Freedoms Speech" by Franklin D. Roosevelt

In the future days, which we seek to make secure, we look forward to a world founded upon four essential human freedoms.

The first is freedom of speech and expression—everywhere in the world.

The second is freedom of every person to worship God in his own way—everywhere in the world

The third is freedom from want—which, translated into world terms, means economic understandings which will secure to every nation a healthy peacetime life for its inhabitants—everywhere in the world.

The fourth is freedom from fear—which, translated into world terms, means a worldwide reduction of armaments to such a point and in such a thorough fashion that no nation will be in a position to commit an act of physical aggression against any neighbor—anywhere in the world.

That is no vision of a distant millennium. It is a definite basis for a kind of world attainable in our own time and generation. That kind of world is the very antithesis of the so-called new order of tyranny which the dictators seek to create with the crash of a bomb.

To that new order we oppose the greater conception—the moral order. A good society is able to face schemes of world domination and foreign revolutions alike without fear.

Read the excerpt from Franklin D. Roosevelt's "Four Freedoms Speech," and then consider the four-framed image.

How does the printed text compare to the image?

A. While Roosevelt describes freedom from fear in geopolitical and military terms, the image depicts it in a simpler and more positive way.

B. While Roosevelt describes freedom of speech in great and specific detail, the image depicts it in a very simple, basic, and direct way.

C. While Roosevelt describes the freedom of religion in rather narrow terms, the image depicts it in a more open, broad, and inclusive way.

D. While Roosevelt describes freedom from want in very American terms, the image depicts it in a more global, multicultural, and universally human way.

Answer 3

Oh yeah I think A would be our choice here. Roosevelt gives clear examples of "freedom from fear" with reference to world events at the time. By contrast, the image's portrayal of "freedom from fear" is simplistic and generic

Answer 4

Read this passage from "Four Freedoms Speech" by Franklin D. Roosevelt.

A part of the sacrifice means the payment of more money in taxes. In my Budget Message I shall recommend that a greater portion of this great defense program be paid for from taxation than we are paying today. No person should try, or be allowed, to get rich out of this program; and the principle of tax payments in accordance with ability to pay should be constantly before our eyes to guide our legislation.

Based on this passage, what is Roosevelt's view on tax increases?


A. Tax increases should apply to the wealthy as well as to everyone else.

B. Tax increases are the only way for the government to raise money.

C. Tax increases should be the last option a government uses.

D. Tax increases may be necessary, but will usually be unpopular.

Answer 5

The passage about taxes emphasizes "tax payments in accordance with ability to pay". With that in mind, I think A is the best choice

Answer 6

No realistic American can expect from a dictator’s peace international generosity, or return of true independence, or world disarmament, or freedom of expression, or freedom of religion—or even good business.

A. By using antithesis, Roosevelt emphasizes the difference between America and the countries under dictatorship.
