Question

read the excerpt from roosevelts \four freedoms\ speech.
that is no vision of a distant millennium. it is a definite basis for a kind of world attainable in our own time and generation.
what effect does roosevelt most likely hope to have on the listener with this appeal to reason?
○ he hopes to convince the listener that his vision is best for the entire world.
○ he hopes to convince the listener that the fight for democracy can actually be won.
○ he hopes to convince the listener that his vision may take years to achieve.
○ he hopes to convince the listener that the fight for democracy should be delayed a bit.

Explanation:

Roosevelt's statement emphasizes that his vision of a better world is not a far-off, unachievable idea but something that can be reached in the current era. This directly counters the idea of it being a distant goal and instead frames the fight for this vision (tied to democratic values in the Four Freedoms speech) as winnable in their time. The other options are inconsistent: the quote does not focus on global universal benefit, long timelines, or delaying the fight.

Answer:

He hopes to convince the listener that the fight for democracy can actually be won.
