Read the excerpt from President Woodrow Wilson’s speech, “War Message to Congress.” I am not now thinking of the loss of propert

y involved, immense and serious as that is, but only for the wanton and wholesale destruction of the lives of non-combatants, men, women, and children, engaged in pursuits which have always, even in the darkest periods of modern history, been deemed innocent and legitimate. Property can be paid for; the lives of peaceful and innocent people cannot be. Which statement best describes the main idea of the excerpt? A lot of the nation’s property has been destroyed. The nation has lost an immense amount of wealth. Human lives are worth more than material items. The nation will get back everything that was lost.

The statement that best describes the main idea of the excerpt is:

Human lives are worth more than material items.

Although the rest of the statements can be easily related to the excerpt as well, the ultimate idea of this paragraph is that innocent lives have been lost and will not be recovered, and that has a greater impact than the loss of the nation's property

The answer should be B. It takes time to recover but never gets up. I believe that is the answer because of how the passage says, "the turtle was tight in it's shell for a log time. But at last it's legs waved in the air, reaching for something to pull it over." sorry about the long answer, i just wanted to show my reasoning behind my answer. Hope this helps :)
