"AT this second appearing to take the oath of the Presidential office there is less occasion for an extended address than there was at the first. Then a statement somewhat in detail of a course to be pursued seemed fitting and proper. Now, at the expiration of four years, during which public declarations have been constantly called forth on every point and phase of the great contest which still absorbs the attention and engrosses the energies of the nation, little that is new could be presented. The progress of our arms, upon which all else chiefly depends, is as well known to the public as to myself, and it is, I trust, reasonably satisfactory and encouraging to all. With high hope for the future, no prediction in regard to it is ventured." What is the purpose of this passage from President Lincoln's Second Inaugural Address?
a. to explain that the people are already acquainted with him
b. to explain his reasons for making a shorter inaugural speech

Answer
to emphasize the pain and struggle that truth has lived through
Explanation:
To emphasize the pain and struggle that truth has lived through is the special treatment.
What is Special treatment?
We are drawn to romantic partners who are nice and considerate of others, but we also want for special treatment and, on occasion, are prepared to make significant concessions in order to obtain it.
That is the conclusion drawn from a series of ten experiments carried out by Ryan Hauser, a doctoral candidate at the Yale School of Management, and Lalin Anik, a professor at the University of Virginia's Darden School of Business.
Anik and Hauser contrasted the demand for special attention from a relationship with the choice for an overall kind companion.

Letter to a Citizen of Kentucky, an excerpt
Executive Mansion, Washington,
April 4, 1864.
A. G. Hodges, Esq., Frankfort, Ky.
My Dear Sir:
You ask me to put in writing the substance of what I verbally stated the other day, in your presence, to Governor Bramlette and Senator Dixon. It was about as follows:
I am naturally anti-slavery. If slavery is not wrong nothing is wrong. I cannot remember when I did not so think and feel; and yet I have never understood that the Presidency conferred upon me an unrestricted right to act officially in this judgment and feeling. It was in the oath I took that I would to the best of my ability preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. I could not take the office without taking the oath. Nor was it in my view that I might take the oath to get power, and break the oath in using the power.
I understood, too, that in ordinary civil administration this oath even forbade me to practically indulge my primary abstract judgment on the moral question of slavery. I had publicly declared this many times and in many ways; and I aver that, to this day I have done no official act in mere deference to my abstract judgment and feeling on slavery. I did understand, however, that my oath to preserve the Constitution to the best of my ability imposed upon me the duty of preserving, by every indispensable means, that government, that nation, of which that Constitution was the organic law. Was it possible to lose the nation, and yet preserve the Constitution?
By general law, life and limb must be protected; yet often a limb must be amputated to save a life, but a life is never wisely given to save a limb. I felt that measures, otherwise unconstitutional, might become lawful by becoming indispensable to the preservation of the Constitution through the preservation of the nation. Right or wrong, I assumed this ground, and now avow it. I could not feel that to the best of my ability I had even tried to preserve the Constitution, if, to save slavery, or any minor matter, I should permit the wreck of government, country, and Constitution altogether.
When, early in the war, General Fremont attempted military emancipation, I forbade it, because I did not then think it an indispensable necessity. When, a little later, General Cameron, then Secretary of War, suggested the arming of the blacks, I objected, because I did not yet think it an indispensable necessity. When, still later, General Hunter attempted military emancipation, I forbade it, because I did not yet think the indispensable necessity had come. When, in March and May and July, 1862, I made earnest and successive appeals to the Border States to favor compensated emancipation, I believed the indispensable necessity for military emancipation and arming the blacks would come, unless averted by that measure. They declined the proposition; and I was, in my best judgment, driven to the alternative of either surrendering the Union, and with it the Constitution, or of laying strong hand upon the colored element. I chose the latter. In choosing it, I hoped for greater gain than loss; but of this I was not entirely confident...
Yours truly,
A. Lincoln
Use context to determine the meaning of the words in bold. (4 points)
Hello. You did not have any words in bold in the text presented in the question above. This prevents your question from being answered. However, when searching for your question, I was able to find a question exactly like yours, which showed the following words in bold: organic law, indispensable necessity.
If that's the case for you, I hope the answer below will help you.
Answer and Explanation:
Taking into account the context clues, we can see that when the author of the letter uses the words "organic law" he is referring to the basic laws and common principles in a society. Through the context clues we can also understand that when the author of the letter uses the words "indispensable necessity" he is referring to a need that is crucial and very important.
These two examples show how context clues are very important features during a reading, because they enable the reader to understand unfamiliar or difficult words through the context of the sentence or the text itself, allowing the reader to understand the entire text well.

How did Absolutism shape the Court at Versailles under King Louis XIV? Develop your answer in detail 
Answer:
Absolutism in the court of King Louis XIV contributed to his monarchical supremacy, particularly over other powerful institutions in France. It equally served to maintain his control over the class of noble elites, as they all resided in court and he could in this way continually observe their activities. Moreover, Louis XIV's aspect of supremacy and power within France gave him a formidable reputation and position throughout Europe.
Versailles itself became an emblem of royal grandeur. The sumptuosity, and splendour of the palace came to represent the elevation of the king's status. The more grand it appeared to the populace and in comparison to other royal courts, the more powerful and eminent Louis XIV would appear as a monarch. The magnificence of the place, a result of his absolutism, also strengthened his absolutism in this regard.
The propaganda necessitated by absolutism promoted an embellished image of the monarch, through art and culture. Through art, King Louis XIV was systematically portrayed as deific and handsome. This facilitated his reign in absolute monarchy.

Hello
can u help me with a essay about for a brand name
Plz help me asap
Answer:
In these days of modern existence, a brand has become something that means a lot to the thinking people and something that has now come to stay. It is the modern elite’s status symbol.
The brand of an item that is used has, in today’s parlance become more important than the quality of the item. This is because the brand has got to have quality, it is so believed. Brand of anything used brings in its trail the status and the modernity of an individual.
Whether the thinking is correct or not is another matter but, the thinking has come a long way, and will probably stay. With this attitude, the elite are lending a sophistication of theirs to the brand also. This trend in turn leads to an obvious monopoly of the brand in the market.

Rode the six hundred.

Cannon in front of them
Volley'd and thunder'd;
Storm'd at with shot and shell,
Boldly they rode and well,
Into the jaws of Death,
Into the mouth of Hell
Rode the six hundred.
Flash'd all their sabres bare,
Flash'd as they turn'd in air
Sabring the gunners there,
Charging an army while
All the world wonder'd:
Plunged in the battery-smoke
Right thro' the line they broke;
Cossack and Russian
Reel'd from the sabre-stroke,
Shatter'd and sunder'd.
Then they rode back, but not
Not the six hundred.
Cannon to right of them,
Cannon to left of them,
Cannon behind them
Volley'd and thunder'd;
Storm'd at with shot and shell,
While horse and hero fell,
They that had fought so well
Came thro' the jaws of Death,
Back from the mouth of Hell,
All that was left of them,
Left of six hundred.
When can their glory fade?
O the wild charge they made!
All the world wonder'd.
Honour the charge they made!
Honour the Light Brigade,
Noble six hundred!

The harsh wind scoured the scant remaining leaves from the trees, and a desolate landscape remained in its wake.
The underlined portion of the sentence is
a coordinating conjunction.
a dependent clause.
an independent clause.
a subordinating conjunction.
Answer:
Answer is C. an independent clause (A. a coordinating conjunction) Explanation: Although nothing is underlined, I think the question stiil can be answered. But first, a quick revision. Independent clause is the one that conveys a complete thought and contains enough information to stand on its own. On the othet hand, dependent clause can only express a meaning if it is linked to an independent clause via the subordinating conjunction. In our sentence, both clauses, "The harsh wind scoured the scant remaining leaves from the trees" and "A desolate landscape remained in its wake" are independent clauses and as such they are linked together via a coordinating conjunction "and". So, if any of these two clauses is underlined then the correct answer is "independent clause". However, if the conjunction "and" is underlined, then the answer is "coordinating conjunction".
Answer:
an independent clause

I want you to think about both of these songs: This is America by Childish Gambino
Im Not Racist by Joyner Lucas
Explanation:
These songs both had political backgrounds and influences. ((I advise you to do some googling on their meanings, I am going off somewhat on my own))
This is America was based off America's stereotypes and had metaphors about race and gun violence. He used his music platform to inform the world about the violence around them and his about his violent contradictions about being black in America.
Here is a link for a break down of the music video : https://time.com/5267890/childish-gambino-this-is-america-meaning/ (I don't know if it is an reliable source b/c media outlets are biased sometimes)
I'm not Racist is a song that was written about the state of race relations in America and how far apart blacks and whites are in how they see things in America. He used his platform to show the world the mindsets of specifics races (whites and blacks) to one another in their own county. "First, the white man unloads his frustrations and his views on Black Lives Matter, the NFL anthem protests. There are even potshots taken against 2Pac and Eminem.
Then the black man reacts. He takes on white privilege, cultural appropriation, and attacks against former President Barack Obama." - CNN news paper. And thrroughout the song both of the men insist "I'm not Racist".
Here is a link for the break down of the music video: https://www.cnn.com/2017/11/29/entertainment/joyner-lucas-not-racist-video-trnd/index.html (Please note that media outlets like these can be biased and CNN has been known to be biased so use caution and double check your info.)
Both of these men used the music platform to spread awareness of the political matters of the people in the United States.
