Question 7 (1 point) Select the correct answer. Winston Churchill made the speech in the passage to the House of Commons (the el

ected wing of the British parliament) shortly after he took office in 1940, during World War II. What is the purpose of Churchill's speech? Blood, Toil, Tears, and Sweat by Winston Churchill (excerpt) On Friday evening last I received His Majesty's commission to form a new Administration. It was the evident wish and will of Parliament and the nation that this should be conceived on the broadest possible basis and that it should include all parties, both those who supported the late Government and also the parties of the Opposition. I have completed the most important part of this task. A War Cabinet has been formed of five Members, representing, with the Liberal Opposition, the unity of the nation. The three party Leaders have agreed to serve, either in the War Cabinet or in high executive office. The three Fighting Services have been filled. It was necessary that this should be done in one single day, on account of the extreme urgency and rigour of events. A number of other key positions were filled yesterday, and I am submitting a further list to His Majesty tonight. I hope to complete the appointment of the principal Ministers during tomorrow. The appointment of the other Ministers usually takes a little longer, but I trust that when Parliament meets again, this part of my task will be completed and that the Administration will be complete in all respects. . . . I considered it in the public interest to suggest that the House should be summoned to meet today. . . . . . to form an Administration of this scale and complexity is a serious undertaking in itself, but it must be remembered that we are in the preliminary stage of one of the greatest battles in history, that we are in action at many points in Norway and in Holland, that we have to be prepared in the Mediterranean, that the air battle is continuous and that many preparations have to be made here at home. In this crisis I hope I may be pardoned if I do not address the House at any length today. I hope that any of my friends and colleagues, or former colleagues, who are affected by the political reconstruction, will make all allowances for any lack of ceremony with which it has been necessary to act. I would say to the House, as I said to those who have joined the government: "I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat." We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind.We have before us many, many long months of struggle and of suffering. You ask, what is our policy? I will say: It is to wage war, by sea, land, and air, with all our might and with all the strength that God can give us; to wage war against a monstrous tyranny, never surpassed in the dark and lamentable catalogue of human crime. That is our policy. You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word: victory. Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory, however long and hard the road may be; for without victory, there is no survival. Let that be realised; no survival for the British Empire, no survival for all that the British Empire has stood for, no survival for the urge and impulse of the ages, that mankind will move forward towards its goal. But I take up my task with buoyancy and hope. I feel sure that our cause will not be suffered to fail among men. At this time I feel entitled to claim the aid of all, and I say, “Come then, let us go forward together with our united strength.” a to threaten Britain's enemies in the war with dire consequences b to criticize the previous government for its anti-war stance c to express Churchill's government's resolve to wage the war d to assure the British public that Britain would soon win the war

The answer to your question is C.

Churchill meant to inform people that the government was ready to wage a long and hard war, and that it would not be easy.

Answer: The purpose of Churchill's speech was C) To express Churchill's government's resolve to wage the war.

Explanation: There were two purposes of Churchill's speech "Blood, Toil, Tears, and Sweat." For the first half, he addressed the Parliament for the first time as prime minister and discussed the new multi-party cabinet he formed in the midst of a major war. The second half of the speech addressed the war itself, through a political lens, then in a more poetic, motivational tone.
