Answer:

B.

Explanation:

President Abraham Lincoln delivered a speech at Gettysburg on November 19, 1863 during American Civil war. The speech was delivered at the dedication ceremony of National Cemetery of Gettysburg. Many soldiers were killed during this war from both the sides in the Battle of Gettysburg.

So, in the honor of these martyred soldiers, President Lincoln delivered this speech.

The speech contained less than 275 words, and Lincoln took only few minutes to deliver this speech. But even in this few minutes, he left a remarkable impact to his audience. The speech spoke about the principles of human equality mentioned in the Declaration of Independence.

Anestetic [448]

in Joy Harjo's "New Orleans", the line "beaten silver paths" refers to the streets of such city. She remembers of certain Spanish conqueror, De Soto,who came to this lands searching for, and constantly states that he wouldn't find it here. Maybe is a mock to that fact.

The "silver blades and crosses" refers to the sword and crucifix of the conqueror, who drawn in the Mississippi river which dreamt of those items. Maybe this means that the streets of New Orleans were made of the things and dreams of the many conquerors who came to that land in search for gold and failed.

What is the definition of the word incredulous, based on its parts?
oksano4ka [1.4K]

The meaning of the word incredulous, based on its parts is: "full of disbelief".

The prefix in- is one of the many prefixes that mean "no". So it denies the meaning of the word following it. One example would be the word inefficient. By adding the prefix in- to the adjective efficient, we deny the adjective. If we call a person inefficient, we are saying the person is "not efficient", not able to finish tasks in a proper time and manner.

As for the other part of the word we're analyzing here, "credulous" comes from the Latin word "credere", which means "believe". A credulous person is a person who believes in things easily, without questioning or reasoning.

By putting in- and credulous together, we form "incredulous", or "not credulous". So an incredulous person is a person who does not believe easily - who is full of disbelief.
