“Ich bin ein Berliner”

by John F. Kennedy

Schöneberger Rathaus, West Berlin, July 1963

Two thousand years ago, two thousand years ago, the proudest boast was "civis Romanus sum." Today, in the world of freedom, the proudest boast is "Ich bin ein Berliner." (I appreciate my interpreter translating my German.)

There are many people in the world who really don't understand, or say they don't, what is the great issue between the free world and the Communist world.

Let them come to Berlin.

There are some who say that communism is the wave of the future.

Let them come to Berlin.

And there are some who say, in Europe and elsewhere, we can work with the Communists.

Let them come to Berlin.

And there are even a few who say that it is true that communism is an evil system, but it permits us to make economic progress.

Lass' sie nach Berlin kommen. Let them come to Berlin.

Freedom has many difficulties and democracy is not perfect. But we have never had to put a wall up to keep our people in—to prevent them from leaving us….While the wall is the most obvious and vivid demonstration of the failures of the Communist system—for all the world to see—we take no satisfaction in it; for it is, as your Mayor has said, an offense not only against history but an offense against humanity, separating families, dividing husbands and wives and brothers and sisters, and dividing a people who wish to be joined together.

What is true of this city is true of Germany: real, lasting peace in Europe can never be assured as long as one German out of four is denied the elementary right of free men, and that is to make a free choice. In 18 years of peace and good faith, this generation of Germans has earned the right to be free, including the right to unite their families and their nation in lasting peace, with good will to all people….

Freedom is indivisible, and when one man is enslaved, all are not free. When all are free, then we can look forward to that day when this city will be joined as one and this country and this great Continent of Europe in a peaceful and hopeful globe. When that day finally comes, as it will, the people of West Berlin can take sober satisfaction in the fact that they were in the front lines for almost two decades.

All free men, wherever they may live, are citizens of Berlin.

And, therefore, as a free man, I take pride in the words "Ich bin ein Berliner."
How does Kennedy respond to the idea that democracy and communism can coexist?

He declares the city of West Berlin a place where democracy flourishes.

He demonstrates how communism has separated families.

He equates freedom with progress in West Berlin.

He says that freedom cannot exist unless all are free.

Young made several mistakes. He thought the third hieroglyph was part of the one for “T,” whereas it actually stood for the vowel “O.” The fourth hieroglyph, the lion, meant just “L,” the fifth meant “M,” and the last hieroglyph stood simply for “S.” In other words, the spelling in Egyptian was “Ptolmis,” not “Ptolemaios.”

But Young got three out of the seven symbols right, which was a better score than any scholar before him had achieved.

Young published his findings in an article written for the 1819 supplement to the Encyclopedia Britannica. He continued to work on the problem of the hieroglyphs in the years that followed, but made little headway in deciphering additional names and words. Why? Largely because he was working under a false assumption.

Like countless other scholars over the centuries, Young still believed that most of the hieroglyphs must have a symbolic meaning. Only in special cases, such as foreign names, did he think that they were used to represent sounds.

Because of this mistaken belief, Young put roadblocks in his own path. However, he had laid a solid groundwork for others in their attempts to decipher the hieroglyphs. And a young Frenchman, Jean-Francois Champollion, was ready to take up the challenge where Young had left off.

What is the story of Hansel and Gretel?

This refers to the story of a witch who resides in a mansion made of gingerbread, cake, and candy and captures Hansel and Gretel after abandoning the brother and sister in a forest.

Hence, it can be seen that Gretel forces the cannibalistic witch into her own oven, killing her before she can fatten Hansel enough to eat bt Gretel saves them and kills the witch

Read the following excerpt Patricia Hampl's "The Need to say it and answer the question.
She kept her distance from the printed word of English, but she lavished attention on her lodge newspaper
which came once a month, written in the quaint nineteenth-century Czech she and her generation had
brought to America before the turn of the century. Like a wedding cake saved from the feast, this language,
over the years, had become a fossil, still recognized but no longer something to be put in the mouth.
In the excerpt above, what is explicitly stated?
Grandmother lavished attention on her granddaughter.
The author has been to Czechoslovakia,
The newspaper was written in 1800's style Czech
The author thought the newspaper was a fossil.

Answers

Answer:

The newspaper was written in 1800's style Czech.

Explanation:

Patricia Hampl's "The Need To Say It" is the author's skillful and meticulous take on how language plays a barrier for a writer and the creative boundaries within which it bounds a person. This particular work is a form of memoir that Patricia writes, telling her story and also revealing how one can/ must tell their stories truthfully and after deep introspection and truth.

As given in the question, she states how her grandmother "lavished attention on her lodge newspaper which came once a month". Moreover, this paper "written in the quaint nineteenth-century Czech" was valuable to the grandmother "like a wedding cake saved from the feast". She explicitly stated that the newspaper was from the 1800s, which has now become more like "a fossil, still recognized but no longer [usable]".

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.
