ibutes have been devoted to it, re-creations staged of it, and books written about it. It is surely fair to say that no other American speech has ever inspired so much writing and so many more speeches. This paper may be the latest, but it certainly will not be the last.

Perhaps what makes the speech especially appealing to modern Americans are the handicaps Lincoln faced in delivering it: a late invitation to appear; a rude reminder that he should deliver no more than “a few appropriate remarks”; the distraction of a sick child at home; an unenviable spot on the program that day—following a stem-winder by the greatest orator of the era; and Lincoln’s deep aversion to public speechmaking of any kind once he became president.

I NEED HELP ASAP please and thankyou;)
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

"Even today, the need for work is a common reason people move to urban areas."

This sentence, although not inaccurate, is not necessary in order for the rest of the paragraph to be coherent. The sentence states that nowadays, people continue to move for work. However, the passage is not a comparison between the past and the present. It simply wants to inform us of the changes that led to bigger cities. Therefore, you can remove this sentence without seriously altering the author's explanation.
