This excerpt is taken from Patrick Henry's famous "Give me liberty or give me death" speech at the Second Virginia Convention in

1775. Which sentence points to the efforts made by the American colonists to avoid war?
Let us not, I beseech you, sir, deceive ourselves. Sir, we have done everything that could be done to avert the storm which is now coming on. We have petitioned; we have remonstrated; we have supplicated; we have prostrated ourselves before the throne, and have implored its interposition to arrest the tyrannical hands of the ministry and Parliament. Our petitions have been slighted; our remonstrances have produced additional violence and insult; our supplications have been disregarded; and we have been spurned, with contempt, from the foot of the throne! In vain, after these things, may we indulge the fond hope of peace and reconciliation. There is no longer any room for hope. If we wish to be free—if we mean to preserve inviolate those inestimable privileges for which we have been so long contending—if we mean not basely to abandon the noble struggle in which we have been so long engaged, and which we have pledged ourselves never to abandon until the glorious object of our contest shall be obtained—we must fight! I repeat it, sir, we must fight! An appeal to arms and to the God of hosts is all that is left us!

Answer:

If someone entrusts you to write a speech for a wedding, it's more meaningful to write it yourself. Take inspiration but don't copy word for word. That takes the sentimentality away.

What Fear Can Teach Us commonlit answers ?
kifflom [539]

This is a TED talk given by Karem Thompson

Explanation:

In her speech she talks about how fear is connected with the stories we had read. She says, first, we have to acknowledge that fear is an entire system of the brain.

Yet today, when we do not have to fear a saber-toothed tiger behind every tree, we are still telling ourselves that a critical level of danger may be right around every corner.

Now our stress is social, ethical, and financial, but our brain elevates the challenges to that same fear center. We have difficult family situations that need attention, but we avoid wading in because we are imagining the worst possible outcome.

Read the passage from Animal Farm.
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

The false confessions extracted from the four pigs.

The slaughter of the pigs by the dogs at Napoleon's order.

Explanation:

The Great Purge was an event in the history of the Russian government during 1936-38. During this period, the Russian dictator Joseph Stalin ordered those 'traitors' of his government to be on trial and even killed. The period was strife with ethnic cleansing, 'removing' dissenting people, murders, trials known and unknown, etc.

Similar to Stalin's rule, Napoleon also carried out trials and killings as he deems fit. He would order his dogs to 'execute' his order, which can be seen in the given excerpt when the four pigs were killed by the dogs. Not only that, extracting false 'declarations/confessions' from the pigs which is the cause of their 'execution' was also a similar element to that of Stalin's "Great Purge".

Thus, the correct answers are the second and fourth options.
