Back of the smokehouse into the lot,
And across the filed.
And I meant to kill him on sight.
But that day, walking near Fourth Bridge,
All of a sudden I saw him standing,
Scared to death, holding his rabbits,

In your hands, my fellow citizens, more than mine, will rest the final success or failure of our
course. Since this country as founded, each generation of Americas has been summoned to give
testimony to its national loyalty. The graves of young Americans into answered the call to service
surround the globe.

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
many tyranny, poverty, disease, and war itself.

West, that can assure a more fruitful life for all mankind? Will you join me in this historic effort?

In the long history of the world, only a few generations have been granted the role of defending
freedoms in its hour of maximum danger. I do not shrink responsibility; I welcome it. I do not believe
that any of us would exchange places with any other people with any other people or any other
generation. The energy, the faith, the devotions which we bring to this endeavor will light our country
and all who serve it, and the glow from that fire can truly light the world.

And so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do
for your country.

My Fellow citizens of the world, ask not what America will do for you, but what together we
can do for the freedom of man.

Still send from underground against your blades
The roots of things battalions greens and curled
And tender, that will match your blades with blades
Till the revolted throats shall strangle on

The tickle of their dead, till straws shall break

Crankshafts like camels, and the sun go down
On dinosaurs in swamps. And night attack
Follows and by the time the Sabbath dawns
All armored beasts are eaten by their lawns.

Situation 5 – Ang sumusunod ay isang talumpati na may pamagat na SA KABATAAN

na isinulat ni Onofre Pagsanghan

Isa sa mga salitang napag-aralan natin sa wikang Pilipino ay salitang NABANSOT. Kapag ang
isang bagay daw ay dapat pang lumaki ngunit ito’y tumigil na sa paglaki, ang bagay na ito raw ay
NABANSOT. Marami raw uri ngpagkabansot ngunit ang pinakamalungkot na uri raw ay ang ng
isipan, ng puso at ng diwa.

Ang panahon ng kabataan ay panahon ng pagklaki, ngunit ang ating paglaki ay kailangang
paglaki at pag-unlad ng ating buong katauhan. Hindi lamang ng atinmg sukat at timbang. Kung ga-
poste man ang ating at ga-pison man angating bigat ngunit kung ang pag-iisip namat nati’y ga-kulisap
lamang kay pangit na kabansutan. Kung tumangkad man tayong tangkad-kawayan at bumilog man
tayong bilog-tapayan, ngunit kung tayo nama’y tulad ni “bondying” ay di pagkatiwalaan anong laking
kakulangan. Kung magkakatawan tayong katawang “Tarza” at mapatalas ang ating isipang sintalas ng
kay Rizal, ngunit kung ang ating kalooban nama’y itim na duwende ng kasamaan anong kapinsalaan
para sa kinabukasan.

Kinabukasan, kabataan, tayo raw ang pag-asa ng inang Bayan. Tayo raw ang maghahatid sa
kanya sa lagnit ng kaganaan at karangalan o hihila sa kanya sa putik ng kahirapan at kahihiyan. Ang
panahon ng pagkilos ay ngayon, hindi bukas, hindi sa isang taon. Araw-araw ay tumatawid tayong
palangit o bumabaluktod tayong paputik. Tamang-tama ang sabi ng ating mga ninunong kung ano
raw ang kinamihasnan ay siyang pagkakatandaan. Huwag nating akalaing makapagpapabaya tayo ng
ating pag-aaral ngayon at sa araw ng bukas ay bigla tayong maging mga dalubhasang magpapaunlad sa
bayan. Huwag nating akalaing makapaglulublob tayo ngayon sa kalaswaan at kahalayan at sa
mahiwagang araw ng bukas bigla tayong magiging ulirang mga magulang.

Kabataan, tunay na pag-ibig sa bayan, ang tunay na nasyonalismo, ay wala sa tamis ng
