The structure of a hammer, with its long handle and metal head, is designed to amplify force and deliver impactful strikes. This is an example of a core principle that structure is related to function.
The structure of a hammer is integral to its function. The hammer is composed of two main parts - the handle and the head. The long handle provides leverage, increasing the force that can be delivered to the head of the hammer. The metal head, particularly the flat hammer face, is hard and durable, thus designed to deliver an impactful strike without deforming itself. On the other side of the head, there is usually a claw that can be used to remove nails, showing how the form of specific parts of the hammer are tailored to their function. This idea that structure is related to function is a core principle found in many fields, including biology and engineering. For example, in biology, the structure of a bird's wing is related to its function of flight; likewise, the structure of a molecule in chemistry can greatly affect its function.

by Franklin Delano Roosevelt
Mr. Vice President, and Mr. Speaker, and Members of the Senate and House of Representatives:
Yesterday, December 7, 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 7, 1941, a state of war has existed between the United States and the Japanese Empire.
Part A
What is one of Roosevelt's purposes for delivering this speech?
to highlight the devastation Japanese forces have caused both in the Pacific and in Europe
to inform the American people of Japan's attack on the US and other places in the Pacific
to remind the American people that Japan is an avowed ally of Nazi Germany
to share specific information about America's plan to counterattack Japan's Pacific fleet
Part B
Which statement best explains how Roosevelt uses rhetoric to advance the purpose identified in Part A?
He uses false equivalency, likening the Japanese to the Nazis, to underscore the danger Japan poses to America.
He uses false equivalency, likening the attack on Pearl Harbor to the attack on Guam, to make Japan seem more dangerous than it really is.
He uses repetition, employing the phrase "last night" several times, to stress the number of coordinated attacks carried out by the Japanese.
He uses repetition, employing the word "attack" over and over, to inspire Americans to join the armed forces and aggressively take on the enemy.
Part A:
Answer
One of Roosevelt's purposes was to inform the American people of Japan's attack on the US and other places in the Pacific.
The other possible answer is the one that mentions Japan being an ally of the Nazis, however the word "Nazi" is never mentioned on the speech.
Part B:
Answer
He uses repetition, employing the word ¨attack¨ over and over, to inspire Americans to join the armed forces and aggressively take on the enemy.
This is definitely the rhetoric that applies to advance his purpose from part A. The other options wouldn't apply.
Part A
to inform the American people of Japan's attack on the US and other places in the Pacific is one of Roosevelt's purposes for delivering this speech. We can see this in these parts of the excerpt: "bombing in the American Island of Oahu, .."; "The attack yesterday on the Hawaiian Islands .....";
Part B
He uses repetition, employing the phrase "last night" several times, to stress the number of coordinated attacks carried out by the Japanese is the correct option.
"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. .."
The phrase in question is a metaphor for immense happiness and contentment. It implies the speaker has found their joy within themselves, just like discovering a gold mine in one's own backyard.
The phrase 'Cause I laugh like I've got gold mines/ Diggin' in my own back yard' is a metaphor that suggests the speaker is incredibly happy and content with their own life. The meaning behind this metaphor is that just like how discovering gold mines in one's backyard would bring immense joy and wealth, the speaker has found their 'gold mine' in their own life, right within themselves. They don't need to search elsewhere for happiness, it's right there in their 'own backyard'. Thus, the phrase symbolizes self-contentment and joy in one's present circumstances.
