What is the main idea of this excerpt of Abraham Lincoln’s Second Inaugural Address?

On the occasion corresponding to this four years ago, all thoughts were anxiously directed to an impending civil-war. All dreaded it — all sought to avert it. While the inaugural address was being delivered from this place, devoted altogether to saving the Union without war, insurgent agents were in the city seeking to destroy it without war — seeking to dissolve the Union, and divide effects, by negotiation. Both parties deprecated war; but one of them would make war rather than let the nation survive; and the other would accept war rather than let it perish. And the war came.

A.
Both the Union and the Confederacy wanted to destroy their enemy.
B.
Both the Union and the Confederacy were responsible for the Civil War.
C.
Both the Union and the Confederacy desired total authority by eliminating the other.
D.
Both the Union and the Confederacy suffered huge economic losses due to the Civil War.
E.
Both the Union and the Confederacy had stockpiled deadly weapons for the Civil War.

Read these sentences from the speech. There is no cause for pride in what has happened in Selma. There is no cause for self-satisfaction in the long denial of equal rights of millions of Americans. But there is cause for hope and for faith in our Democracy in what is happening here tonight. How do these sentences convey Johnson’s viewpoint? A He is troubled by America’s poor behavior, and wonders if the country will be receptive to his demands for justice. B He is confused by America’s choices, and questions whether the country is capable of repairing the damage done. C He is disappointed in America’s actions, but is confident the country will learn from its mistakes and make changes. D He feels outraged by America’s indifference, but not surprised as the country has a history of discriminatory behavior.

Answers

Answer:

C. He is disappointed in America’s actions, but is confident the country will learn from its mistakes and make changes.

Explanation:

The given lines are from President Lyndon B. Johnson's speech that he gave in front of the Congress on March 15, 1965. This speech was dubbed "The American Promise" and details the events of the Selma demonstration in Alabama.

President Johnson mentions the Selma incident where blacks demonstrated their equal rights as Americans. And in that demonstration, Jimmie Lee Jackson was shot at by a state trooper, fatally wounding him. It was this incident that the President was referring to when he talked about "what has happened in Selma." He reiterated that "There is no cause for self-satisfaction in the long denial of equal rights of millions of Americans." But as Americans, they can have a "cause for hope and for faith in our Democracy", meaning there is hope for a change.

These lines show how the President feels disappointed in the events but is also confident of the possibility of learning from the mistakes and bring about changes in America.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

Why does Juan censor his own letter "without regret"? How is his final action as a censor an example of irony, or a seeming contradiction? How does this ending illustrate Valenzuela's point of view about the political situation in Argentina? Support your response with evidence from the text.

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

1. He censors his own letter because he has been immensely involved in the censor's work, going so far as to override his own wishes, so that the government's wishes are fulfilled.

2. This is an example of irony and contradiction, because Juan decided to accept the job as a censor, to prevent the letters he sends from being censored, but he ends up doing exactly the opposite.

3. This reinforces the idea that the political situation in Argentina was very oppressive and authoritarian, going so far as to change the thinking of citizens who, instead of fighting it, were completely manipulated, to the point of helping.

Which clause is most important in the sentence below?
Boyd could take his car to a car wash, or he could clean it himself at home.
O I. Boyd could take his car to a car wash
() O II. he could clean it himself at home
Both I and II are equally important.

Answers

Both are equally important
Both are equally important because the sentence would not be a complete sentence if it is missing one of the clauses. It would also not make sense because both are dependent clauses, meaning they depend on each other.
