Read the passage.
Salsk061 [2.6K]

The right option is They outline reasons that support the claim that "it becomes necessary... to dissolve the political bands" with England. According to Thomas Jefferson, all men are born with the rights to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. The state of things back then, with the mentioned political bands with England, were preventing the American colonies to achieve or fully enjoy such rights. First off, governments are instituted from the consent of the governed people; this is not possible under a king (kings, and particularly kings from European empires such as France and England, used to have absolute power and were despots). Then, in order to establish a new government which will set rules and regulations for the governed ones to abide by on the pretense that such regulations and rules aim at protecting and benefitting them (which is what national Constitutions are for), the people has a right to throw off a regime threatening their independent lives, liberties and pursuit of happiness. Lastly, it is stated that the present King of Great Britain does not respect the rights or self-determination of people living in any of the initial Thirteen United States of America and, according to Jefferson, seeks the establishment of an absolute Tyranny. All the above reasons led to the necessity of cutting bonds from Great Britain.

Death penalty debate
Lelu [443]
Is this an actual question or not? If it’s just a topic I think the death penalty is not fair and should be considered illegal in all countries. People make mistakes, and we as human beings know that they can change and become a better person. As i have recently read in English class, most countries are involved in the United Nations. The United Nations Declaration of Human Rights states that in one of the articles humans shall not be subject to cruel or inhumane punishment. Stories about mass murder or school shootings show up, but people should still get a life. Although we have to do something, so i think having a person be in prison for the rest of their life is STILL better than the death penalty imo.

4. Which first-person pronoun is one of the most-repeated werds in the speech? How would use affect Lincoln's audience? What can
Andrej [43]

Answer:

1. 'We' is the most-repeated first-person pronoun in the Gettysburg address.

2. Its use would make the audience feel united with the President in preserving the nation which their forefathers labored for.

3. I can infer that Lincoln used this reasoning to appeal to the emotions of the audience making them realize that the fight for the unity of the nation affected them on a personal level.

Explanation:

First-person pronouns could be singular or plural. In his address, Abraham Lincoln mostly used the plural first-person pronoun which includes we, our, and us. 'We', was the most widely used in the address. The use of 'we', makes the audience feel personally involved in the struggle to protect the unity of their country. This would improve their patriotism.

Lincoln must have used the first-person pronoun to appeal to the emotions of the audience and make them feel united in achieving the oneness of the nation.
