Which sentence in this excerpt from Abraham Lincoln's second inaugural address conveys that he wanted the US Civil War to end as

soon as
possible?
Neither party expected for the war the magnitude or the duration which it has already attained. Neither anticipated that the cause of the
conflict might cease with or even before the conflict itself should cease. Each looked for an easier triumph, and a result less fundamental and
astounding. Both read the same Bible and pray to the same God, and each Invokes His aid against the other. It may seem strange that any men
should dare to ask a Just God's assistance in wringing their bread from the sweat of other men's faces, but let us judge not, that we be not
judged. The prayers of both could not be answered. That of neither has been answered fully. The Almighty has His own purposes. "Woe unto
the world because of offenses; for it must needs be that offenses come, but woe to that man by whom the offense cometh." If we shall suppose
that American slavery is one of those offenses which, in the providence of God, must needs come, but which, having continued through His
appointed time. He now wills to remove, and that He gives to both North and South this terrible war as the woe due to those by whom the
offense came, shall we discern therein any departure from those divine attributes which the believers in a living God always ascribe to Him?
Fondly do we hope, fervently do we pray, that this mighty scourge of war may speedily pass away. Yet, if God wills that it continue until all the
wealth piled by the bondsman's two hundred and fifty years of unrequited toil shall be sunk, and until every drop of blood drawn with the lash
shall be paid by another drawn with the sword, as was said three thousand years ago, so still it must be said "the judgments of the Lord are true
and righteous altogether."

A participant in a group discussion can be an effective speaker by remaining concise and speaking on the same level as the other participants so as not to confuse them. The participants can also ask for feedback and ask if they need to clarify anything so the listeners are able to get the most out of the discussion. A speaker should also always come prepared and bringing notes and guidelines. I hope I helped!

Write a 4 paragraph persuasive essay.
alekssr [168]

Answer:

We should prevent littering ourselves and help clean up the environment around us when we see litter! Litter is very bad for the Earth, humans, animals, and the economy. Keep reading this essay to find out why!

Litter kills animals, an example we all know about is the dying population of sea turtles due to plastic in the ocean. Animals in general try to eat litter, which can hurt their digestive system resulting in death at times or they get trapped in litter such as plastic bags, resulting in suffocation.

Litter is also bad for the community because it wastes our natural resources. We waste paper all the time, instead of recycling it. This is killing trees unnecessarily. Trees are good for our environment, they provide oxygen for us and shelter to many little creatures who are all essential to our food chain. Save the trees please, use recycling bins, reuse paper bags!

Litter such as glass, can result in less people wanting to go to certain areas such as beaches where people drop their beer when they're done instead of bringing it to the bins. This hurts humans economically and physically sometimes! Tourists are essential revenue to some cities, and humans can cut their feet on glass. Throw away your bottles and litter always!

Hope this helps! Please mark brainliest :)
