He displays his compassionate side; this shows that he isn't a perfect man as the book tries to portray him as.
Answer:
Correct statements are the following:
- John Locke was an enlightened thinker who helped inspire the Declaration of Independence by inspiring the idea of the right to "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness".
- Thomas Jefferson was the primary author of the Declaration of Independence.
- The first part of the Declaration, which declares the purpose of the document, is called the Preamble.
- One section of the Declaration is a list of 'self evident truths' that should be protected for all citizens.
Explanation:
Regarding the second correct statement, originally, Richard Henry Lee was supposed to be the author of the Declaration of Independence, but due to his responsibilities as a member of the Committee of Confederation and his wife's illness, he wasn't able to perform such a task and it was then given to Thomas Jefferson.
The section that contains the list of self-evident truths (truths that are known to be true without proof) is the Preamble, the first part of the Declaration, which also declares its purpose. This is what that part sounds like: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of happiness."
The second statement is incorrect as a committee of five, not ten, people drafted the declaration: John Adams of Massachusetts, Benjamin Franklin of Pennsylvania, Thomas Jefferson of Virginia, Robert R. Livingston of New York, and Roger Sherman of Connecticut. This committee is known as the Committee of Five.
The list of grievances against the king for unjust actions against the colonists remained in the Declaration. The list, written after the Preamble, contains 27 grievances against the British Crown.
