Answer:

A. a positive connotation that suggests people have a duty to uphold their beliefs.

Explanation:

In his "Gettysburg Address", President Abraham Lincoln stated that <em>"our fathers brought forth a new nation....."</em>. This bring into account not the feeling of a particular father, but a common, generalized image of the brave souls who gave up their lives bringing a better future for their generations. This presents an image of the soldiers who chose to give up their lives for the best of their future of their children. And by using the common "<em>father</em>", Lincoln was able to instill bravery, patriotism, gratitude and a sense of duty in the people to keep up the fight their forefathers have started and sacrificed their lives for. The word "<em>father</em>" presents a positive connotation suggestive of the need to do their duty in upholding the beliefs of their forefathers and keeping that duty.

Answer: A *For question 1* sry only one I looked at...also noticed the other person had 2 answers so I narrowed this one down

Explanation:

B is not right because it only focuses on the mind game they were talking about(only mentioned once)

C is not right because it has not been proved that you <em>can't </em>travel through the center of the Earth

(I'm assuming you got D wrong but just in case) I think it's safe to say that answer choice D is only a sum up of paragraph 2. *Basically it doesn't sum up the whole passage*
