15、 destroy all forms of human lifeI agree with him 2According to Kennedy，the belief still at issue around the globe is the belief that all man are created equal and God has given them certain inalienable rights which no state or ruler can take away from them 3Kennedy considers as friends：a)the old all
16、ies of the US， such as Britain，Canada，Australia，New Zealand and the western European countries； b) the countries in South America and；c)many of the developing countries in Asia and Africa that rely on USaidHe considers all socialist countries as foes(all that time the socialist camp headed by the So
17、viet Union)and those developing countries preparing to take the socialist road 4 Britain，Canada，Australia，New Zealandand in a wider sense one may also include France 5Many new nations were born after World Warespecially in Africa In 1 960 alone， just one year before Kennedys inaugural speech， the fo
18、llowing countries in Africa declared their independence：The Republic of Central Africa，The Republic of Chad，The Republic of Dahomey，The Peoples Republic of the Congo，The Jabon Republic，The Republic of Ghanaetc 6The people who are in huts and villages are the poor people in backward developing countr

22、war against tyranny，poverty，disease and warThe “long twilight struggle” is not a hot war but a constant，persevering fight against tyranny，poverty，disease and the threat of war 10There are probably some exaggeration in the claim that freedom was in its hour of maximum danger when Kennedy assumed offi
23、ceHowever，it is historically justifiable that Kennedy assumed office at a time when freedom was in a most critical hourThe new president had to face many dangers and crises At home，freedom was endangered by the witch hunting campaign against government workers accused of being communists started by

25、st with sweetest words and then his foes with sharp wordsThe order is clear and appropriate 3In this highly rhetorical address，there are many examples to show that Kennedy is very particular and careful in his choice of and use of words as well as his choice of sentence patterns and structures. For

30、ikely to be quoted: may be we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty, as this is not only a carefully thought out, well-balanced sentence easy to remember and elegantly pleasant to read aloud, but
31、also a sentence that best expresses the proud feelings of the Americans as the self-appointed leader of the free democracies . Kennedys call for Americans to ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country is also very often quoted because it represents the enterprisin
32、g spirit进取精神；创业精神of the Americans of which Kennedy is a best example. 6. Kennedy s argument and persuasion is based mainly on emotional appeal rather than facts.

Yet both groups of nations are trying to change as quickly as possible this uncertain balance of terrible military power which restrains each group from launching mankinds f
37、inal war. 8. So let us start once again (to discuss and negotiate) and let us remember that being polite is not a sign of weakness. 9.
