What point of view does Lincoln express in this excerpt from the Gettysburg Address? 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 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
honoured 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, and for the people, shall not perish from this earth.

Read this passage: many manufacturers prefer plastic as a material for containers because it can be molded into many shapes. but plastic is not very strong. it must be fused with glass or steel for strength. it is also not very durable. even the strongest plastic can break under enough pressure. the biggest disadvantage to using plastic is that it does not decompose. while plastic can be recycled, doing so is tedious and difficult. while it may be more expensive and difficult to work with, aluminum is a much stronger building material with far greater tensile strength. it conducts electricity because it is metal. best of all, aluminum is very easy to recycle. even if it is thrown away, it decomposes much more quickly than most manufacturing materials. how does the compare-and-contrast organizational pattern of the passage support the author's purpose? a. the passage gradually leads up to the point about decomposition to inform the reader about the importance of recycling plastics. b. the passage lists the advantages and disadvantages of each material to make a case for the use of plastic and not aluminum in containers. c. the passage begins with a description of plastic's problems in order to call attention to the good qualities of aluminum. d. the passage shows the superiority of aluminum in order to make a case for the production of stronger plastics.
