The answer to this question is a
Answer:
B. Run-On/Comma Splice
Explanation:
Fragments are incomplete sentences. They are missing one of three main elements: a subject, a verb, and a complete thought. In the given example, the sentence has a subject, a verb, and the thought is complete. We easily understand what information was given. <u>So this is NOT a fragment, option A.</u>
A complete sentence must have a subject, a verb, an object, a complete thought. As our sentence has two independent clauses, it has two complete thoughts, it is a compound sentence. <u>So this is NOT option C.</u>
A comma splice occurs when two or more independent clauses are joined by just a comma and no coordinating conjunction. In the given example there is no comma, so this is not a comma splice.
Run-on sentences have two independent clauses, but they were not properly connected, that is no mark of punctuation. In the given example we have two independent clauses that were connected without punctuation mark or any coordinating conjunction. So this is the Run-on sentence. <u>Option B is correct.</u>

The answer is B: To convince Americans that the war was worth continuing
The Gettysburg Address was the speech delivered by Abraham Lincoln at the dedication ceremony for the national cemetery at Gettysburg. In his speech he recognized and honored the effort of the fallen soldier in the American Civil War ongoing.
His main purpose was to give American encouraging words to continue the war, he stated "It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced" and "....that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."
Revise by yourself then ask someone else to revise the writing. It would be good to have someone with a different thought process than you. That person will normally spot out other things in the writing you might have not noticed.
Don't be afraid to make big changes in the writing! If you do not like a paragraph and wish to delete then it's ok, you can also rewrite the paragraph as you see fit or you can move it around to a different place in the writing. You can also do that before making small changes like grammar, spelling, and formatting.
