Answer:
No. Although we get information from different sources, it doesn't mean it is really reliable. Why? because some answers and info we get are not really correct. We should not rely on them since it isn't really that precise and accurate... instead, we should get ideas from it and write our own.
Answer:
What Lincoln wishes to do through this final sentence of the speech is:
C. stir up emotions about the lives lost in the war and encourage the listener to help end it.
Explanation:
President Abraham Lincoln does NOT wish his listeners to feel sad or angry. Nor does he want them to blame anyone. That's why he says, "With malice toward none, with charity for all." He then moves on to ask his audience to help take care of the families of the soldiers who have bravely lost their lives in the war. Besides that, he wants to "achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace," meaning he wants the war to end and peace to reign. Lincoln is stirring up emotions in his audience, but not inflamed, hostile emotions. He wishes to inspire them to be good, charitable, empathetic. He wants them to worry about a peaceful future instead of worrying about blame. He wishes to urge them to fight for peace in honor of those who have died for it.
Answer:
It illustrates Thoreau's goal to continue exploring the world around him in a unique and fulfilling way.
Explanation:
The excerpt we are studying here was taken from Thoreau's "Walden", a book in which he narrates his experience of living, simply and solitary, in a cabin in the woods for some time. This excerpt, as a matter of fact, belongs to the books conclusion. From it, we can gather that Thoreau has the purpose of exploring the world, finding fulfillment in doing so. To express that, he uses imagery - a literary device in which authors appeal to the five senses, providing vivid descriptions. He compares the experience of exploring the world in a philosophical way to the experience of exploring it physically. We can visualize the boat, Thoreau traveling on the deck instead of in a cabin, truly seeing, taking in what the world has to show.

Emotions that I felt:
Shock, dread, like a void/empty, pensive and melancholy.
Why?
There is morbid detail in this poem which relates to soldiers of war who have died.
Despite their honorable sacrifice in war, in modern times, they have become forgotten (highlighted by the indifference of the conductor) and have become associated with the grass of the Earth.
This relates to a much quoted verse from the Old Testament of the Bible “All men are flesh”.
The main principle is that men are born of dust and shall once return as dust/soil (to the Earth) - elements of this are also true even for non-believers - carbon cycle.
