In which part of this excerpt from the Gettysburg Address does President Abraham Lincoln argue that the outcome of the war will depend on the determination and loyalty of Northern citizens?Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on 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 battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.

But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate—we can not consecrate—we can not 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. 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. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us— that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—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.

From the excerpt we can see that Abraham Lincoln acknowledge that he is fully aware the Civil war would indeed took a lot of sacrifice from the northern citizens. So he loudly said that those sacrifice wouldn't be for nothing and would lead to the creation of better society.

The part of the excerpt that argues that the outcome of the war will depend on the determination and loyalty of Northern citizens is the following:

"The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract."

This address was delivered by Abraham Lincoln on November 19th 1863.

What makes this excerpt from Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens an example of direct characterization? The elderly female was a woman of wisdom and experience; she knew what was good for children; and she had a very accurate perception of what was good for herself. So, she appropriated the greater part of the weekly stipend to her own use, and consigned the rising parochial generation to even a shorter allowance than was originally provided for them. Thereby finding in the lowest depth a deeper still; and proving herself a very great experimental philosopher.

Answers

Direct characterization is when the author specifically tells the reader the traits of a character. In this excerpt, Dickens tells you that the woman is elderly, wise, experienced and knows what is "good for children". If Dickens had used indirect characterization, he would have need to shown her wisdom and experience by including specific examples. The reader would then be lead to develop his own conclusion about the whether or not the woman was wise and experienced.

Which words in the sentence make up the adjective phrase? Which word does the adjective phrase modify? Did you notice the butterfly with the pink spots?

A.
with the pink spots; modifies butterfly

B.
the butterfly; modifies notice

C.
notice the; modifies butterfly

D.
Did you; modifies notice

Answers

an adjective is a descriptive word, it describes a noun, which is a 'name' word (i.e: the name of an item, the name of a place; e.g: shoes are the name of the things you wear on your feet, 'shoe's' are the noun)

the 'descriptive' word, the adjective, is something which tells you more about the noun.

therefore, the answer should be: a) with the pink spots; modifies butterfly

because 'with the pink spots' describes the noun, the 'butterfly'.
