Read the excerpt from Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address. What does he mean when he says, “we cannot dedicate—we cannot consecrate—we cannot hallow, this ground”?

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 battlefield 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 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.

A. He is waiting for a religious leader to consecrate the ground properly.
B. He is convinced that the soldiers died in vain.
C. He thinks that the soldiers themselves consecrated the ground with their sacrifice.
D. He feels that the ground cannot be dedicated until the war is over.

Answer:

i think it might be c. Thats what i believe

Read the passage from "The Strangers That Came To Town" carefully. "Here they come, Mother," yelled Tom when a truck drove up in the rain and stopped at the empty cottage across the street. Mother hurried in from the kitchen, and we three looked out. That truck, we knew, contained the Duvitch family and all their earthly possessions. All afternoon Mother, Tom, and I had been watching for them with mixed emotions. For the Duvitches had just come over from Europe, and they were the first of the nationality to settle in our town. A stream of children, accompanied by a big brown dog, poured out of the back of the truck and stood in a huddle in the rain. How does this scene develop the plot of the story?
