Read the excerpts from "opening statements from John F. Kennedy and Richard M. Nixon First Televised Debate."

Nixon: Where, then, do we disagree? I think we disagree on the implication of his remarks tonight and on the statements that he has made on many occasions during his campaign to the effect that the United States has been standing still. We heard tonight, for example, the statement made that our growth in national product last year was the lowest of any industrial nation in the world. Now last year, of course, was 1958. That happened to be a recession year. But when we look at the growth of G.N.P. this year, a year of recovery, we find that it's six and nine-tenths per cent and one of the highest in the world today. More about that later.

Kennedy: This is a great country, but I think it could be a greater country; and this is a powerful country, but I think it could be a more powerful country. I'm not satisfied to have fifty percent of our steel-mill capacity unused. I'm not satisfied when the United States had last year the lowest rate of economic growth of any major industrialized society in the world. Because economic growth means strength and vitality; it means we're able to sustain our defenses; it means we're able to meet our commitments abroad.
On what point do Kennedy and Nixon disagree?

A. Kennedy thinks America is progressing; Nixon thinks America is in a recession.


B. Nixon thinks America is progressing; Kennedy thinks America is standing still.


C. Nixon thinks America needs to increase trade with Peking, China; Kennedy thinks America should strike out at China and Russia (the Kremlin).


D. Kennedy thinks America has the highest growth in G.N.P. in the world; Nixon thinks America has the lowest growth of any industrial nation.

What does this author think about the issue? Use the T-Chart to compare the perspectives of Dr. King and the clergy in regard to the Birmingham Campaign. Then write two sentences about how the writer of the article most likely felt about the issue.

"Oppressed people cannot remain oppressed forever," King wrote. Blacks were tired of stores and parks closed to their children and themselves. They were tired of police and mob brutality aimed at them for no other reason than the color of their skin. To the black community, "'wait' has almost always meant 'never,'" King wrote.

King praised those few whites who supported desegregation laws and who had joined in protests. But King also wrote that he was disappointed that many white priests, rabbis, and ministers failed to act morally and to support desegregation. King did not want violence and bloodshed, he wrote. But he wanted to change unjust laws and allow black Americans a chance to be accepted in their own country. And he didn't want to wait

The root word climate refers to weather conditions over a long period. Climatic is based on the word climate. What does the suffix -ic in climatic mean?

The Extinction of Dinosaurs
We all know that at one time dinosaurs roamed the surface of Earth. But it’s been 65 million years since they died out. They thrived on the planet for many years, along with a vast number of other organisms and animals. How did the dinosaurs go extinct? Scientists formed many theories about what caused this obliteration. They included climate change, continental shifts, and volcanoes.

Eventually, one theory began to suggest that the cause of the dinosaurs' extinction was the crash of an asteroid on Earth's surface. It was a huge asteroid (about 10 kilometers in width) that crashed against Earth. Its crash made a gigantic crater in Mexico. The crash caused total climatic shifts and changes in the temperature of the atmosphere. The crash also produced a great gas cloud around Earth that resulted in total darkness. It was this explosion that might have led to the complete extinction of the dinosaurs from the face of Earth.



A.
made of something
B.

C.
