Select the correct text in the passage. In the Gettysburg Address, Abraham Lincoln explains why the dead soldiers will be remembered. Which of the following paragraphs best
addresses this idea?

A. 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.

B. 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 come to dedicate a portion of it, as a final resting place for those who died here, that the
nation might live. This we may, in all propriety do.

C. 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 hallowed it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we
say here, while it can never forget what they did here.

D. It is rather for us, the living, we here be dedicated to the great task remaining before us - that, from these honored dead we take
increased devotion to that cause for which they here, gave the last full measure of devotion - that we here highly resolve these dead shall
not have died in vain; that the nation, 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.

Read the excerpt from act iv, scene iv of romeo and juliet. capulet: good faith! ’tis day: the county will be here with music straight, for so he said he would. [music within.] i hear him near. nurse! wife! what, no! what, nurse, i say! 30 re-enter nurse. go waken juliet, go and trim her up; i’ll go and chat with paris. hie, make haste, make haste; the bridegroom he is come already: make haste, i say. [exeunt.] 35 this scene is an example of dramatic irony used to create suspense since the audience knows that the musicians will not arrive on time. capulet approves of the match to paris. romeo is already married to juliet. the nurse will be unable to rouse juliet.
