Which quotation from this passage best expresses the concept that every citizen’s well-being depends on a unified government and

protecting it is of the highest importance?
“The name of American, which belongs to you in your national capacity, must always exalt the just pride of patriotism more than any appellation derived from local discriminations.”

“You have in a common cause fought and triumphed together.”

“The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you.”

“...for it is it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad, of your safety, of your prosperity, of that very liberty which you so highly prize.”



Read the passage.

excerpt from Washington’s Farewell Address, published in the Philadelphia Daily American Advertiser, September 19, 1796

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so; for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad, of your safety, of your prosperity, of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed, to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth; as this is the point in your political fortress against which the batteries of internal and external enemies will be most constantly and actively (though often covertly and insidiously) directed, it is of infinite moment that you should properly estimate the immense value of your national Union to your collective and individual happiness; that you should cherish a cordial, habitual, and immovable attachment to it; accustoming yourselves to think and speak of it as of the palladium of your political safety and prosperity; watching for its preservation with jealous anxiety; discountenancing whatever may suggest even a suspicion that it can in any event be abandoned; and indignantly frowning upon the first dawning of every attempt to alienate any portion of our country from the rest, or to enfeeble the sacred ties which now link together the various parts.

For this you have every inducement of sympathy and interest. Citizens by birth or choice of a common country, that country has a right to concentrate your affections. The name of American, which belongs to you in your national capacity, must always exalt the just pride of patriotism more than any appellation derived from local discriminations. With slight shades of difference, you have the same religion, manners, habits, and political principles. You have in a common cause fought and triumphed together. The independence and liberty you possess are the work of joint councils and joint efforts—of common dangers, sufferings, and successes.

But these considerations, however powerfully they address themselves to your sensibility, are greatly outweighed by those which apply more immediately to your interest. Here every portion of our country finds the most commanding motives for carefully guarding and preserving the Union of the whole.

For this you have every inducement of sympathy and interest. Citizens by birth or choice of a common country, that country has a right to concentrate your affections. The name of American, which belongs to you in your national capacity, must always exalt the just pride of patriotism more than any appellation derived from local discriminations. With slight shades of difference, you have the same religion, manners, habits, and political principles. You have in a common cause fought and triumphed together.

lord [1]

In developing their respective arguments, Beveridge (Passage 1) and Bryan (Passage 2) both Passages express admiration for the “founding and history of the United States.”

In lines 12-14 of passage 1 the author states that "it is a glorious history that our God has bestowed upon his chosen people" and in 50-63 the author of passage 2 refers to a number of historical figures from the US including Patrick Henry, Jefferson, Washington and Lincoln.

The United States emerged from thirteen British colonies established along the East Coast. Disputes with Great Britain over taxation and political representation led to the American Revolutionary War (1775–1783), which established the nation's independence.

Hence, the correct answer is founding and history of the United States.

Which sentence from the passage best shows that Juhan values the culture of his homeland?
Naddika [18.5K]
Hi there! I feel that C.) would be the best answer for this question. Fighting in a war wouldn't show that you value the culture of your homeland, like shown in answer A.). B and D seem irrelevant to the question at hand, and since the language of a country relates directly to the culture and answer C.) shows that Juhan values it, it'd be safest to go with that answer.
