In the poem "To an Athlete Dying Young" by A.E. Housman, the author talks about an athlete who dies at the height of his popularity and success. Most people find this situation sad, as the man was very young and most likely had much to live for still. However, the author argues that such a death does not necessarily need to be tragic. He tells us that the fact that the athlete died young means that he will forever be remembered as a success, and as the best version of himself.

This relates to the quote, as the quote also states that a death is only meaningful if a person is forgotten. However, as long as a person is remembered, the person is immortal. This means that the death is meaningless, and that glory can save a person from death.

Elena L [17]

Answer is:

b. The plants and animals of South America are numerous and unusual.

Explanation:

Full of an infinite number of very tall trees which never lose their leaves and throughout the year are fragrant with the sweetest aromas and yield an endless supply of fruits, many of which are good to taste and conducive to bodily health. The fields produce many herbs and flowers and most delicious and wholesome roots that I fancied myself near the Terrestrial Paradise.

We saw so many animals that I believe so many species could not have entered Noah’s ark.

Show's that the best choice should be "B" ")

why did the Lincoln-Douglas debates resonate with the country...how did this impact lincoln's political future?
8090 [49]

Answer:

The Lincoln-Douglas debates were a series of public speeches between Abraham Lincoln and Stephen A. Douglas in the 1858 election campaign for the Senate.

Lincoln was the candidate for the Republican Party, which had only been founded four years earlier, and Douglas was again in the Democratic Party. The election campaign lasted from July to November 1858, and both candidates covered several thousand kilometers within Illinois.

The main topic of debate was slavery, especially in the context of the Supreme Court judgment in the Dred Scott case. As a strong supporter of the principle of "people's sovereignty," Douglas claimed that he did not care about resolving the issue of slavery, as long as it reflected the real will of society. Because of this attitude, he conflicted with his party and was portrayed as being insensitive to the moral aspect of slavery. Lincoln, in turn, argued that slavery was a moral evil, while admitting that the Constitution defended this institution. Ashe opposed its expansion, he was depicted as an abolitionist. However, the future president denied such statements, ensuring that he never advocated racial equality. His plan was to extinguish slavery by prohibiting its extension. Ultimately, Douglas won the election; however, Lincoln was also a beneficiary of the debates because they secured him the presidential nomination of Republicans before the 1860 election.
