James and Noel sat on the steps of their new house. It was going to be a hot day, but the boys preferred sitting outside to unpacking more boxes inside. Their mom was unpacking kitchen stuff, and the boys had grown tired of hearing her exclaim every time she unwrapped another of the teapots she hadn't seen in months.
"You'd think she'd have enough teapots by now," said James.
"Yeah," said Noel, "I don't get that excited about my Godzilla collection and that is way more interesting than any teapot."
"And I'm sorry," said James, "but I know way too much about teapots for a boy my age."
James then started listing all the things he knew about teapots. "There's the spout and the pouring angle," he began. But Noel had already tuned James out. The heat was rising and as tired as he was of his mother's teapots, he was more tired of James' complaining.
Besides, there was a raggedy old dog down the street. Noel could tell, even from far away, this was a dog that belonged to no one. Its coat was matted. It had no collar. All he could see of the dog's face was its nose sticking out. Its coat was all brown, but a dirty, grayish brown, not the deep dark warm brown that made you feel safe.
"And there's that teapot with the flowers. The brown one with the little dots all in a row," James continued on his rant, now listing all the teapots he had unwrapped for Mom. Noel continued ignoring James and watched the dog.
It was moving slowly in their general direction. It stopped at various spots along the curb to smell things. Sometimes the smelling took a very long time. Every now and then it would sit down to scratch behind its ear. Noel wondered if it was looking for something to eat.
James jabbered on and Noel began to wonder how a dog came to be in such a sad condition as this one. Did no one ever want it? Even as a puppy, was this fellow not cute enough to find a good family? Had it always been this ugly? Hadn't anyone ever been kind to it? The dog was across the street now, one house over. It seemed to be particularly attracted to mailboxes and the plants around them. To Noel's mind, it appeared that the dog was greeting each family on the street.
Noel watched the dog cross the street heading in their direction. He hadn't noticed it before, but the dog's head seemed rather large. It swung back and forth in front of its body, much like the bears Noel had seen at the zoo and on television. Noel could not see any eyes through all the matted hair. He could see gnats and flies hovering over the poor thing, waiting for it to sit down again.
It lumbered toward them. Noel noticed that James had stopped talking. He looked over at his brother. Staring at the dog, James seemed to be a bit shocked or surprised, maybe even stunned.
"What is that?" James whispered.
Instead of sniffing their mailbox and moving on like before, the dog started up the sidewalk toward the steps where they were sitting. Noel could hear the flies buzzing and see not just a few gnats, but a whole swarm around the dog. Bits of leaves and twigs hung in its hair. The dog continued toward them. Was it going to stop, wondered Noel. Should I get up and get in the house? But then, just when Noel felt a twinge of panic, the dog sat down, wagged its tail, and smiled. Noel had never seen anything like it before. It was as if the dog, flies and all, were posing for a photographer. It is going to be an interesting summer, thought Noel.

Which sentence in this excerpt from Theodore Roosevelt's "Citizenship In a Republic speech conveys his central claim about cynical people?
But with you and us the case is different. With you here, and with us in my own home, in the long run, success or failure will be conditioned
upon the way in which the average man, the average women, does his or her duty, first in the ordinary, every-day affairs of life, and next in those
great occasional cries which call for heroic virtues. The average citizen must be a good citizen if our republics are to succeed. The stream will not
permanently rise higher than the main source; and the main source of national power and national greatness is found in the average citizenship
of the nation. Therefore it behooves us to do our best to see that the standard of the average citizen is kept high; and the average cannot be
kept high unless the standard of the leaders is very much higher.
Let the man of learning, the man of lettered leisure, beware of that queer and cheap temptation to pose to himself and to others as a cynic, as
the man who has outgrown emotions and beliefs, the man to whom good and evil are as one. The poorest way to face life is to face it with a
sneer. There are many men who feel a kind of twister pride in cynicism, there are many who confine themselves to criticism of the way others do
what they themselves dare not even attempt. There is no more unhealthy being, no man less worthy of respect, than he who either really holds,
or feigns to hold, an attitude of sneering disbelief toward all that is great and lofty, whether in achievement or in that noble effort which, even if
it fails, comes to second achievement. A cynical habit of thought and speech, a readiness to criticise work which the critic himself never tries to
perform, an Intellectual aloofness which will not accept contact with life's realities - all these are marks, not as the possessor would fain to think,
of superiority but of weakness. They mark the men unfit to bear their part painfully in the stern strife of living, who seek, in the affection of
contempt for the achievements of others, to hide from others and from themselves in their own weakness. The role is easy; there is none easler,
save only the role of the man who sneers alike at both criticism and performance.
