Answer:
A. The South seceded because it felt Lincoln would abolish slavery.
B. South Carolina seceded because southern states felt that Lincoln had not won the southern election and was not their true leader.
Explanation:
I could not find the article however these should be the answers.
President Lincoln was a Republican which was an abolitionist party and he had made many speeches condemning slavery. When he was elected president therefore, Southern states believed that he would abolish slavery due to his opposition to it.
The South could not accept this and also believed that Lincoln was not a President of the nation as he didn't win many votes in the South. This prompted South Carolina to declare secession and they were followed by other Southern states.
The speaker means that B. <span>Even when they were tired and had doubts, they remained faithful.
The "voices singing in [their] ears" were themselves, thinking of the doubts they have. </span>
China's social credit system has been compared to Black Mirror, Big Brother and every other dystopian future sci-fi writers can think up. The reality is more complicated — and in some ways, worse.
The idea for social credit came about back in 2007, with projects announced by the government as an opt-in system in 2014. But there's a difference between the official government system and private, corporate versions, though the latter's scoring system that includes shopping habits and friendships is often conflated with the former.
Brits are well accustomed to credit checks: data brokers such as Experian trace the timely manner in which we pay our debts, giving us a score that's used by lenders and mortgage providers. We also have social-style scores, and anyone who has shopped online with eBay has a rating on shipping times and communication, while Uber drivers and passengers both rate each other; if your score falls too far, you're out of luck.
China's social credit system expands that idea to all aspects of life, judging citizens' behaviour and trustworthiness. Caught jaywalking, don't pay a court bill, play your music too loud on the train — you could lose certain rights, such as booking a flight or train ticket. "The idea itself is not a Chinese phenomenon," says Mareike Ohlberg, research associate at the Mercator Institute for China Studies. Nor is the use, and abuse, of aggregated data for analysis of behaviour. "But if [the Chinese system] does come together as envisioned, it would still be something very unique," she says. "It's both unique and part of a global trend."
