After reading the paragraphs from President Lincoln's speech, we can answer in the following manner:

  1. D. Establish the idea that slavery is a necessary woe in the country's history.
  2. C. Emphasize the religious beliefs that both the North and the South have in common.
  3. C. Establish the foundational thesis for the speaker's forthcoming argument.

<h3>Why does Lincoln quote the Bible?</h3>
  • In question 1, we are supposed to analyze the reason why President Lincoln quotes the Bible, particularly the part about woes and punishment.
  • According to the quote, people will (and even must) do wrong things (woes), but they will be punished for it. Then, Lincoln explains that slavery is one of those woes that people must do, and that is was originally allowed by God.
  • The only reason why there is war now is because slavery has continued for longer than God intended. If the whites had ended it when they should have, no war (punishment) would be necessary.

<h3>What does Lincoln mean when he says both sides read the same Bible?</h3>
  • Both the North and the South have the same beliefs. They consist of Christians who pray to the same God and read the same Bible. However, even though they have their religious beliefs in common, they still fight.
  • Here, Lincoln does not seem to be criticizing religion at all. Nor is he saying that the two sides have different beliefs. He is emphasizing the fact that they actually believe in the same things.

<h3>What is the purpose of the first paragraph:</h3>
  • The first paragraph in this speech, just like in any other speech, has the purpose of establishing the thesis, the idea that will guide the rest of the speech.
  • The first paragraph is an introduction where the speaker presents the main idea that will be developed throughout the speech.

With the information above in mind, we can choose letters D, C, and C, respectively, as the best choices.
