To that high concept there can be no end save victory.

In his speech, Roosevelt makes three lists:

(1) the foundations of a healthy and strong democracy

Equality of opportunity for youth and for others.
Jobs for those who can work.
Security for those who need it.
The ending of special privilege for the few
The preservation of civil liberties for all.
The enjoyment of the fruits of scientific progress in a wider and constantly rising standard of living.


(2) issues in the U.S. economy that call for immediate improvement

We should bring more citizens under the coverage of old-age pensions and unemployment insurance.
We should widen the opportunities for adequate medical care.
We should plan a better system by which persons deserving or needing gainful employment may obtain it.

(3) 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 world-wide 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.


In which of these three lists does Roosevelt effectively use repetition?

A.) 1 only
B.) 2 and 3
C.) 1 and 3
D.) 2 only

Respuesta :

I think the answer is D. Only the second paragraph repeats the term "We should."

Answer:

The answer to the question: In which of these three lists does Roosevelt effectively use repetition, would be: D: Only in 2.

Explanation:

Repetition is a literary technique that is often used by orators, and writers, in order to stress on the importance of one idea, one that he/she needs the public to retain in their memories. In order to achieve this, the writer, or orator, essentially repeats either a word, a group of words, or a sound, that are the same always, without many variations. In this case, the 2nd list  offers such a thing when Roosevelt begins all the three sentences from the list in exactly the same way: "We should..." These two words stress on the ideas and since they are the same, it is the perfect example of the use of the technique of repetition.
