Abraham Lincoln adressed the American people with a speech that, as a side fact, is one of the most quoted speeches in the history of the U.S.
Over the years scholars have analyzed the speech, and they suggest that Lincoln used extreme care with his words. He wanted to deliver a heartfelt and precise message in moments of extreme national crisis. The magnitude of the battle in Gettysburg stunned the whole nation, and the dedication of a cementery at the site of the Civil War's most pivotal battle was seen as a solemn event, that empathized with the whole nation.
He placed this battle within the larger context of the American history, by making reference 87 years before to it's foundation. Lincoln sought to transform America by making an attempt at redefining liberty and nationalism by fusing the two together. Lincoln forever changed the way we think about the country.
When getting the writing prompt. Write down ideas and then begin the rough draft
Hello! Gramatically, let's look at each choice-
(a) says: Mrs. Anderson flies to Sweden tomorrow her plane leaves at 2:00 P.M.
This can't be right, because it's a run-on sentence! If someone were to say this outloud, it would sound as if someone wasn't "taking their time"!
(b) says: Mrs. Anderson flies to Sweden tomorrow, her plane leaves at 2:00 P.M.
This one looks correct. It has a comma which adds a pause. It also connects both statements made in the sentence.
(c) says: Mrs. Anderson flies to sweden tomorrow, and her plane leaves at 2:00 P.M.
This one wouldn't be correct because its listing ideas with "and" in between. It's as if the speaker is saying "she does this and this and that and that..."
So your best choice would be B.
that learning facts is more important than seeking to understand them.
