In the passage, Roosevelt refers to the Axis powers as "gangsters." Explain the
connotations, or ideas and feelings, associated with that word. What central idea
about the attack on Pearl Harbor do the word gangsters and other inflammatory
language in the passage help convey?

Answer:

The word GANGSTER as used in the passage gives a NEGATIVE connotation and could be inferred to mean the word ENEMY.

Explanation:

CONNOTATION simply means the perception of idea which a word gives when used or uttered as deduced from it's literal meaning.

The literal or primary meaning of the word gangster is a criminal, immoral and violent individual. This meaning resonates negativity and hence a negative CONNOTATION.

The use of the word GANGSTER and other inflammatory words such as TREACHEROUS is used to invoke the American people to see the Japanese as their enemy and prepare to hit back.

Therefore,

•The word GANGSTER gives a negative CONNOTATION and implies enemy.

• Inflammatory language used help convey a message to hit back.

1. The word "gangster" refers to a group of vicious criminals who usually operate in an organized manner.

The word Axis Powers here refers to the coalition of Germany, Italy, and Japan. So, because the attack was jointly carried out by this group of states, President Roosevelt in an attempt to brand them accordingly used the word "gangsters".

2. The general context and language of the speech in the passage underscores the criminality of the actions of the Axis Powers.

In the context in which President Roosevelt used this word, he was referring to the above-named coalition. His speech was a call to all countries of the world to bear the United States of America witness against the actions of the Axis Powers and in a way, to absolve the United States of America from the consequences of any retaliatory actions that she was prepared to carry out against the Japanese.

History shows that the US's retaliation was devastating and lasted generations afterward.

Roosevelt was not only incensed about the attack on America but delivered the above speech using words such as gangster to connote that their actions were criminal and unpopular. One could say that his objective was to ensure that listeners would become sympathetically inflamed as well.

The central idea of Roosevelt's delivery, therefore, is that no country has the right to deny other states the entitlement to live in harmony with its neighbors and that to attack a neighbor was a criminal action.

Money is something we all take for granted in our lives. Some of us may wish we had more of it but we all recognize it when we see it, whether in the form of coins, notes or cheques. It is difficult to imagine how people managed without money. In the earliest periods of human history, people used to exchange goods directly. They would exchange things they had plenty of for things that they were in need of. For example, they might offer food for tools. This method of exchange, which is known as “barter”, has many disadvantages. Certain goods may be difficult to carry, they may not last long, or may be impossible to divide into smaller units. It can also be difficult to know the worth of something compared with other goods.

According to historians, the first money, in the sense we understand it today, consisted of gold coins produced about 2,500 years ago. Gold, being a very precious metal, was a suitable material. The introduction of gold coins was acceptable to everyone and they were still being used at the beginning of this century, although they have now been replaced by paper money and coins made of ordinary metals.
