The Gettysburg Address "Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting-place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead who struggled here have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living rather to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain, that this nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth."

Which of the following is the best summary of the line in bold?
a.The battle fought at this particular location was unimportant.
b.Patriotic citizens have the right to rebel against government.
c.War is pointless and should be used only as a last resort.
d. Our purpose is to see this war through and to win it for justice.

Answer:

D is the answer.

Explanation:

"The Gettysburg Address" by Abraham Lincoln was all about encouraging the soldiers to preserve the Union in the Civil War and to continue to fight for the ideas they gave their lives for. A, B, and C are unrelated to the purpose of the Gettysburg Address.

I'm not sure where the "bold line" is located since you made the whole text bold, but I can tell by looking at the entire speech and at the answer choices that D is the most accurate of them all.

A is incorrect since Lincoln is conveying that the battle is crucial for soldiers to preserve the Union and maintain the relationship between the North and the South. B is also incorrect since this speech is not about rebelling against the government in any way; it is for the equality of the people since Lincoln wanted to maintain peace among them. So, that's not part of our answer, either. Lastly, C is also incorrect, since the Civil War was not the last resort. He gave this speech during the Civil War, so how is that the last resort? Instead, he acknowledged the people that sacrificed their lives for the Civil War and promoting the soldiers to persist throughout the war.

Therefore, D is the most accurate answer to the summary of Lincoln's speech, the Gettysburg Address.

I hope this helped!

Due tonight please help!

1. I thought I was prepare for what our family would expect on the wide-open planes of the frontier. I was wrong.

2. The letter from Father's brother arrived at our home in Philadelphia on May 1, 1867, coincidentally the Day Nebraska became the 37th state in the Union. Uncle Matthews have been searching for land in Nebraska for 2 years and have secured a land for our family, if we want it. Was father interested?

3. Of course he was interested! Ever since my uncle and his family mood West, it's been all father could talk about—the adventures, the awards of being reaped from working on the land, the freedom, the wide open space. Mother was not so sure about living on the prairie, but she had hitched her dreams to Father's long ago. So it was when we set off with everything we owned tied down to a solitary wagon covered with a large white canvas cloth.

4. weeks later we stood with Uncle Matthew by a small stream on our new land—anchors and anchors of earth blanket with the tall prairie grass. "The first chore," he said "is to build a house." But there was almost no stone to use for construction. The the few trees within sight were not suitable for lumber, Andy clay needed for bricks and scarce.

5. "What kind of house?" I posed out loud.

6. He chuckles ruffling my hair. "A soddie."

7 So a sod house it would be. I was set to cut the long grass short with help of scythe scythe swing back and forth over the land. Mother gather the grass and bundles and use for kindling. Uncle Matthew's hitched a plow called a "grasshopper" to one of the horses and begin cutting strips of sod about 18 in wide and 4 in thick further use an axe to hew bricks of sod.

8. We only cut as much sod as we could use each day and lay the bricks in a criss-cross pattern. We left gaps for the doors and windows. we fashioned the roof of twigs and branches woven together with straw pile on top, and we place more sod above as a final layer.

9. "The canvas from the wagon will come in handy," Uncle Matthew's remarks.

10. "For what." I asked.

11. "We'll hang it inside, under the ceiling. It'll catch dirt and critters that might drop down. unless you rather have them plop into your stew or fall on your bed," he laughed.

12. We hung a horse's like it in the entryway to serve as a door until we could fashion a real one wood, and we use paper grease with animal fat as Windows. The house was just one room, but it was our whole living area—parlor, kitchen, and bedrooms—all in a single place. Cozy was the only word I could think of to describe it at the moment.

13. But during that first year, I also learned that are soddie kept us warm in the winter and cool in the summer. It leaks when it rains and on hot days Mother could pour water on the floor once a week to keep the dust settled. The three of us were crowded but happy, and no one I knew from Philadelphia could walk outside on day in May and see wildflower springing from roof and walls of his house!
