I was in the National Forest with my camera. The day was crisp, and the leaves were turning gold and red. When I spotted the whi

te-tailed buck, I froze. He wasn't more than 15 yards from where I was standing. The wind must have been right, because he kept on browsing the mossy ground. I lifted my camera very slowly. Carefully, holding my breath, I lifted the camera to my eye. Turning the focus ring, I framed the deer's head. Just as I was ready to press the shutter release, the buck raised his head. He was looking my way with wide eyes. Click. I took the picture. An instant later, the deer bounded away into the forest. He took off, but I had the shot. Today, the framed photo of that buck hangs above our fireplace.

<span>B is the right answer. With the phrase 'the wind must have been right' the author is implying that he was only fortunate enough to take that shot because the deer was not able to pick up his scent on the wind. Although the other answers for this question might be implied by other sentences within the text, the question itself asks specifically about the sentence referencing the wind.</span>

The Gettysburg Speech is perhaps the most important speech in US history. This speech was delivered by Lincoln in less than two minutes, at the end of the American civil war. That's because the message he wanted to give was fast, clear and didn't need a lot of arguments, because it was evident that it was true.

Lincoln inspired by the principles of equality defended in the Declaration of Independence of the country, declared the end of the war based on the concept that the country was born to be a country of free people and owners of their own lives, the end of the war allowed freedom be offered to everyone, as the founding fathers wanted and fought for it. Thus, Lincoln established that the end of the war would bring a nation united in recovery and truly free.
