Soldiers of my Old Guard: I bid you farewell. For twenty years I have constantly accompanied you on the road to honor and glory. In these latter times, as in the days of our prosperity, you have invariably been models of courage and fidelity. With men such as you our cause could not be lost; but the war would have been interminable; it would have been civil war, and that would have entailed deeper misfortunes on France. I have sacrificed all of my interests to those of the country. I go, but you, my friends, will continue to serve France. Her happiness was my only thought. It will still be the object of my wishes. Do not regret my fate; if I have consented to survive, it is to serve your glory. I intend to write the history of the great achievements we have performed together. Adieu, my friends. Would I could press you all to my heart.

Answer:

This speech was said by Napoleon Bonaparte on April 20, 1814, after he failed to invade Russia.

Explanation:

Napoleon, in fact, had a very large and powerful reign, being feared throughout Europe. Amid so many conquests, a defeat ended his reign, the defeat in invading Russia in 1814.

There are many reasons that Napoleon wished to invade Russia, among which we can mention Russia's non-accession to participate in the continental blockade against England, Russia's alliance against Sweden and even the refusal of the marriage proposals he made for two Russian princess.

Indeed, the attempted invasion of Russia was the bloodiest battle that Napoleon and his army faced, but that battle massacred the French army withdrew the faith of the population in Napoleon and ended his reign.

Text: “Saving Water? Why Bother?” (Read the to answer the question)
“You really need to start turning the faucet off when you brush your teeth. First, leaving the water running is pointless, because as you’re brushing your teeth, you’re not using the water. I know you think that since everyone else is turning off the water why should you, since that’s just a drop in the bucket; but did you know that by turning the water off, you could save up to 8 gallons of water a day? The average faucet uses 2 gallons of water a minute. If you turned the water off while you brushed your teeth, you would help conserve water in our town, which needs it, because it rains so little here.”

Prompt: Write a paragraph where you identify the claim of the text “Saving Water? What For?”. Choose the most relevant piece of evidence to support the claim.

Which element of the romantic movement is present in this excerpt from the "The Solitary Reaper" by William Wordsworth? Will no one tell me what she sings?-- Perhaps the plaintive numbers flow For old, unhappy, far-off things, And battles long ago: Or is it some more humble lay, Familiar matter of to-day? Some natural sorrow, loss, or pain, That has been, and may be again? Whate'er the theme, the Maiden sang As if her song could have no ending; I saw her singing at her work, And o'er the sickle bending;-- I listened, motionless and still; And, as I mounted up the hill, The music in my heart I bore, Long after it was heard no more.
