Read the excerpt from Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address. What does he mean when he says, “we cannot dedicate—we cannot consec

rate—we cannot hallow, this ground”?
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate—we cannot consecrate—we cannot hallow, this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract.

A. He is waiting for a religious leader to consecrate the ground properly.
B. He is convinced that the soldiers died in vain.
C. He thinks that the soldiers themselves consecrated the ground with their sacrifice.
D. He feels that the ground cannot be dedicated until the war is over.

The correct answer is the following: <em>option C. When Lincoln expresses that "we cannot dedicate-we cannot consecrate-we cannot hallow, this ground" it means that he thinks that the soldiers themselves consecrated the ground with their sacrifice.</em> He is stating that the men who fought and die in battle are the ones who made a greater act than the living could ever afford to perform, they are the one who had blessed the land in which the lie upon now, with their bravery and sacrifice.

employing kinesthetic Imagery, describe one of you daily routines.Limit your answer to three to five sentences only​
qwelly [4]

Answer:

My daily routine begins in the morning, just after waking up, when I walk from my room to the kitchen for breakfast consisting of a bowl of cereal and a glass of cold milk. Then I start cleaning all the objects that I held during breakfast and then I do a session of physical exercises, where I move rhythmically for about half an hour. After that moment, I return to my room and turn on my computer, where I will attend the classes available for that day. Next, I'm going to walk my dog for a while, so he can exercise and have some fun. When I get home, I take a hot shower and help my mom finish dinner. At night, I tend not to move around a lot and stay in my room reading, watching or talking with friends. I usually sleep early to get enough energy for the next day.

Explanation:

The above text was written to present kinesthetic Imagery that are mental images, promoted through a descriptive textual language, that promote the sensation of physical movement in the reader, through the reading of movements in a text, which can be highly detailed and with a sensorial source, or more basic and direct.
