Question

Select the correct text in the passage.

Answer 1

The detail that best shows Lincoln did not think highly of himself is " Few great men have felt this burden more completely than Lincoln," as seen below.

Who was Abraham Lincoln?

Abraham Lincoln was the 16th president of the United States. He was famously murdered in 1865, which prevented him for seeing the end of the Civil War and the Union's victory. In the passage we are analyzing here, a detail shows that Lincoln did not think highly of himself.

That detail is the following:

• Few great men have felt this burden more completely than Lincoln.

Right before the detail above, the author says some people must wonder whether they are acting in vain or whether they deserve others' criticisms. If Lincoln felt that burden, that means he did not think highly of himself. He actually wondered about those things, worried about his way of doing things and what people said.

With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the answer provided above is correct.
