Read this excerpt from abraham lincoln's gettysburg address and then answer the question that follows: (1) four score and seven years ago, our fathers brought forth upon this continent a new nation: conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. now we are engaged in a great civil war testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated can long endure. we are met on a great battlefield of that war. (2) we have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that this nation might live. it is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. but, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate we cannot consecrate we cannot hallow this ground. the brave men, living and dead, who struggled here have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. the world will little note, nor long remember, what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. the purpose of this speech is most similar to which of these? (5 points) select one: a. a critical book review b. a company's mission statement c. a solemn discussion of events d. a lecture on fascinating history

Select the contred text in the passage which sentence in this excerpt from john galsworthy's narrative essay "gone" reflects his view that there is no afterlife? an old woman and mrs. herd's sister were in the sitting-room, they showed us to the crazy, narrow stairway. though we lived distant but four hundred yards of a crows flight, we had never seen mrs. herd before, for that is the way of things in this land of minding one's own business a slight dark girlish-looking woman, almost quite refined away, and with those eyes of the dying, where the spirit is coming through, as it only does when it knows that al is over except just the passing. she lay in a double bed with clean white sheets. a white-washed room, so low that the ceiling almost touched our heads, some flowers in a bow, the small lattice window open. though it was hot in there, it was better far than the rooms of most families in towns, living on a wage of twice as much, for here was no sign of defeat in decency or cleanliness. in her face, as in poor herd's, was that same strange minging of resigned despair and almost eager appeal, so terrible to disappoint. yet, trying not to disappoint it, one felt guilty of treachery: what was the good, the kindness in making this poor bird flutter still with hope against the bars, when fast prison had so surely closed in round her? but what else could we do? we could not give her those glib assurances that naive souls make so easily to others concerning their after state. and the night was so beautiful, so utterly glamourously beautiful, with its star-flowers, and its silence and its trees clothed in moonlight. all was tranquil as a dream of sleep. but it was long before our hearts wandering with poor herd, would let us remember that she had slipped away into so beautiful a dream
