Franklin D.Roosevelt’s First Inaugural Addre (March 4, 1933)
President Hoover, Mr.Chief Justice, my friends:
This is a day of national consecration, and I am certain that my fellow Americans expect that on my induction into the Presidency I will addre them with a candor and a decision which the present situation of our nation impels.
This is pre-eminently the time to speak the truth, the whole truth, frankly and boldly.Nor need we shrink from honestly facing conditions in our country today.This great nation will endure as it has endured, will revive, and will prosper.
So, first of all, let me aert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself----namele, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance.
In every dark hour of our national life a leadership of frankne and vigor has met with that understanding and support of the people themselves which is eential to victory.I am convinced that you will again give that support to leadership in these critical days.
…
Our greatest primary task is to put people to work.This is no unsolvable problem if we face it wisely and courageously.
It can be accomplished in part by direct recruiting by the government itself, treating the task as we would treat the emergency of a war but at the same time, through this employment, accomplishing greatly needed projects to stimulate and reorganize the use of our natural resources.
Hand in hand with this, we must frankly recognize the overbalance of population in our industrial centers and, by engaging on a national scale in a redistribution, endeavor to provide a better use of the land for those best fitted for the land.
The task can be helped by definite efforts to raise the values of agricultural products and with this the power to purchase the output of our cities.
It can be helped by preventing realistically the tragedy of the growing lo, through foreclosure, of our small homes and our farms.
It can be helped by insistence that the federal, state, and local governments act forthwith on the demand that their cost be drastically reduced.
It can be helped by the unifying of relief activities which today are often scattered, uneconomical and unequal.It can be helped by national planning for and supervision of all forms of transportation and of communications and other utilities which have a definitely public character.
There are many ways in which it can be helped, but it can never be helped merely by talking about it.We must act, and act quickly.1 分析句子结构: 最短的和最长的句子长度，且各句多少词？随着句子长度增加，句子结构也更复杂，几个复合句，是哪几句。复合句占句子总数的比例是多少。以状语开始的句子有几句？
