The Declaration of Human Rights written by Cyrus the Great has been hailed as the first charter of human rights, predating the Magna Carta by nearly two millenniums (~1700 years) and in 1971 the United Nations was published translation of it in all the official U.N. languages. It is now kept in the British Museum and it is no exaggeration to say that it is one of the most precious historical records of the world. Also a replica of the Cyrus cylinder is kept at the United Nations Headquarters in New York.

How do McCarthy’s references to Abraham Lincoln at the beginning and end of his speech support his argument?
Helga [31]

McCarthy is trying to win the audience to his viewpoint straightaway by inducing  one of America's most loved presidents of all times.Once you have drawn the attention of your audience,they are going to listen to you to the end of your speech hopefully.

As we celebrate the birth of this man who with his whole heart and soul hated war, I would like to be able to speak of peace in our time, of war being outlawed, and of world-wide disarmament.

And because that day was the birthday of Abraham Lincoln,it was very apt to mention Abraham's name as he always championed for disarmament and no war policies and wanted peace and prosperity for all.

sergejj [24]

The two actions by the Federal Government that were attempts to preserve the Union in the face of a bitter quarrel over slavery are Missouri Compromise and Compromise of 1850. Option B is correct.

The Missouri Compromise constituted the legislation that admitted Maine to the United States as a free state along with Missouri as a slave state, thus maintaining the balance of power between North and South in the United States Senate.  

The Compromise of 1850 consists of five laws passed in September of 1850 that addressed the issue of slavery.
