Question

Read this excerpt from Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address and then answer the question that follows:

Answer 1

Answer:

Letter C is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Abraham Lincoln read Gettysburg Address on Nov. 19th, 1863. A is not correct because he doesn't refer to art at all. Letter B is also incorrect; despite the Gettysburg Address reflects a deep sense of philosophy, it does not talk about anyone or anything in particular. The doesn't take the lecture on the nation's historical development as main idea (even though it is very important at the beginning), due to this letter D is also incorrect. The speech is most similar to an inspirational eulogy at a funeral, maybe because of the context: Lincoln delivered Gettysburg Address at the Dedication of the Soldier's National Cemetery, a couple of months after the Confederacy was defeated at the Battle of Gettysburg.

Answer 2

C) An inspirational eulogy at a funeral.
This excerpt depicts the war and the men who died fighting for freedom and that that field be dedicated to the people who died.
