Answer:

The correct option is preposition.

Explanation:

Prepositions are short words, often less than six letters used to connect people, objects, time and locations within a sentence. They are normally placed in front of nouns, or in front of gerund verbs in some cases, and in general, they can be grouped in three types: (1) time prepositions, (2) place prepositions, and (3) direction prepositions.

Bearing the described above, it could be said that the word UPON in the sentence: <em>Four score and seven years ago, our forefathers brought forth (upon) this continent a new nation conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.</em> corresponds to a preposition

Answer:

We can prevent ethnic conflicts.

I agree with this statement. We can prevent ethnic conflicts if we learn how to respect each other and accept people regardless of their race, religion, sex, etc.

We can resolve all conflicts peacefully.

I agree with this statement. We can resolve all conflicts peacefully if we learn how to be tolerant and admit our own mistakes. It's very important to know that violence doesn't solve anything and it cannot help us to become better people.

Conflicts are better to prevent than to resolve.

I agree with this statement. If we work on the prevention of the conflicts, by talking to the people and try to understand their choices and decisions we would be able to avoid any kind of problems. In addition, if we avoid conflicts, we also will avoid uncomfortable situations and discussions.

Family conflicts are unavoidable.

I agree with this statement. We often cannot avoid family conflicts, as there are many differences between family members that become even more expressed when we live under the same roof. Also, we should take into account that the family members are always there for us, so we can be unaware of the conflict, because of the strong mutual connection between us.

When we defend our rights, we should remember the right of other people.

I agree with this statement. We should never forget about the rights of other people, as they shouldn't forget about our rights. Even when we have the same opinion, we shouldn't forget that other people have the right to express its opinion peacefully and say what they think.

The main cause of conflict is that we don't listen to each other's arguments.

I agree with this statement. In most cases, we cannot avoid conflicts because we are not capable of listening to each other's arguments and we often hear what best suits us. We should learn how to listen to each other and how to respect our interlocutors, in order to resolve our conflicts peacefully and successfully.
