Answer:

C. Lincoln uses sarcasm to describe the quality of the schools where he grew up.

Explanation:

In his narration of his early life, Abraham Lincoln describes the new home that his family had moved to. It was a wild region, living along with animals of the woods. When he said that "<em>There were some schools, so called</em>", he is sarcastically commenting on the quality of school there. The only requirement of the teachers being "r<em>eadin, writin, and cipherin</em>", he recalls how the education system was like where he grew up.

Thesis statement of how actions can be more powerful than words
kari74 [83]
In this world where we live today, people tend to avoid paying attention to anyone who is talking, unless you have a good impression on them. Have you ever asked yourself why don’t we always believe words? I guess the reason of that is that words are alterable; we say something, and we change it the next minute right away. I therefore firmly believe that actions speak louder than words.

First of all, every single person on earth has the freedom to say whatever he/she wants, but it is not something guaranteed that everyone is going to believe you, or take you words into consideration. People nowadays are more likely to believe the language of the body, because it is the evident truth. For example; when someone runs for presidency; he wants to get people’s votes. Thus, he/she starts improving his/her image among people by visiting hospitals, making donations, and giving free stuffs away.

Furthermore; words don’t have the effect that actions do on people. Words are easier to forget, while actions can be forgotten that easy; actions would last forever if they had a great impression on us. It is also impossible to show people how truthful your words are without an evident action. For example; when you say ‘I missed you’ to a friend, and you haven’t even bothered yourself to pick up the phone to know how he/she was doing, then obviously these words are just lies. Hence, actions are more realistic when it comes to expressing our emotions.

To put it all in a nutshell, actions are the optimum way to make people believe you. Words could be a method to convey messages, but it’s not as efficient as actions. Believe me, even if you had the ability to make such great speeches like Barack Obama, you are going to need actions that support your words.
