I think the correct answers from the choices listed above are options A, C and D. The average sentence length was longer before because authors included more clauses and phrases in sentences, the archaic spelling of words used by authors was considerably longer and  the convention at that time was for authors to use several words to say something that people today say in a few words. Hope this helps.

How did people try to mend and reconstruct the union after the civil war?
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

The end of the Civil War saw the beginning of the Reconstruction era, when former rebel Southern states were integrated back into the Union. President Lincoln moved quickly to achieve the war’s ultimate goal: reunification of the country. He proposed a generous and non-punitive plan to return the former Confederate states speedily to the United States, but some Republicans in Congress protested, considering the president’s plan too lenient to the rebel states that had torn the country apart.

Explanation:

The greatest flaw of Lincoln’s plan, according to this view, was that it appeared to forgive traitors instead of guaranteeing civil rights to former slaves. President Lincoln oversaw the passage of the Thirteenth Amendment abolishing slavery, but he did not live to see its ratification. From the outset of the rebellion in 1861, Lincoln’s overriding goal had been to bring the Southern states quickly back into the fold in order to restore the Union.
