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
Lincoln's decision to arm black soldiers occurred at what point? (4 points)
a
As soon as he realized military emancipation would not work
b

c
Only once he was convinced it was necessary to save the Union
d
Only once he was convinced that Southerners would abolish slavery

People take cars and other road vehicles for granted today. However, the idea of such vehicles was unheard of about 500 years ago. Then, in 1478, the artist and inventor Leonardo da Vinci designed a self-propelled vehicle. His drawing showed a boxy, open-topped wooden machine with three wheels.

how does the author use foreshadowing to build suspense in the story provide three examples of foreshadowing in your answer "the cone"
Answer:
The author use foreshadowing to build suspense in the story by signaling the readers of the antagonist's, Mr. Horrocks, intentions to kill Mr. Raut. According to the text, it states, "Was he deluding himself with his own fancies, or had Horrocks actually held him back in the way of the train? Had he just been within an ace of being murdered?". This tells the readers that the author was trying to convey that Mr. Horrocks planned to kill Mr. Raut, however his first attempt failed. This builds up tension and suspense to the story for the readers does not know what Mr. Horrock's next attempt be.
Another example, "But all the same, what on earth did Horrocks mean about “white as death” and “red as sin?” Coincidence, perhaps?". This tells the readers that the author was trying to emphasize what Mr. Horrocks said. This also foreshadows the death of Mr. Raut and the sin that Mr. Horrocks will soon to commit. As the story progresses, Mr. Raut finally realizes the intentions of Mr. Horrocks craving to kill him. Based on what I read, " “Three hundred centigrade, mind!” said Horrocks. “It will boil the blood out of you in no time.” “Eigh?” said Raut, and turned.". This tells the readers that Mr. Horrocks was making his second attempt to kill Mr. Raut. The phrase, "It will boil the blood out of you in no time", foreshadows the plan to burn Mr. Raut to death.

How is the character Gerasim portrayed in chapters 9-12 of Tolstoy’s The Death of Ivan Ilyich? Is he a realistic or unrealistic character?
Provide textual evidence to support your response.
Thank you!
Answer: The answer on plato is:Tolstoy presents an unrealistic portrayal of the character Gerasim in chapters 9–12. The kindness and patience he shows when attending to his sick master for long hours are not entirely believable. The following excerpt from chapter 9 shows that Gerasim is completely unaffected by the daily unpleasantness of attending to Ivan Ilyich’s needs: Gerasim was sitting at the foot of the bed dozing quietly and patiently, while he himself lay with his emaciated stockinged legs resting on Gerasim's shoulders; the same shaded candle was there and the same unceasing pain. "Go away, Gerasim," he whispered. "It's all right, sir. I'll stay a while." Tolstoy shows no flaws in Gerasim’s character. Gerasim does not have the qualities that characters usually have in realist works. He is not ordinary. His approach to life and death is not conventional. He is the only character in the book who doesn’t lie about Ivan Ilyich’s condition. He accepts the fact of his master’s illness and does not feel the need to hide it. He is not afraid of death. The following excerpt from chapter 11 shows that Gerasim inspires Ivan Ilyich to reflect on his past life and to eventually acknowledge that he had based his life on superficial values: His mental sufferings were due to the fact that that night, as he looked at Gerasim's sleepy, good-natured face with its prominent cheek-bones, the question suddenly occurred to him: "What if my whole life has been wrong?

Read "Hope is the thing with feathers" by Emily Dickinson.
Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words,
And never stops at all,
And sweetest in the gale is heard;
And sore must be the storm
That could abash the little bird
That kept so many warm.
I've heard it in the chillest land,
And on the strangest sea;
Yet, never, in extremity,
It asked a crumb of me.

Answer:
i dont know much about the book
Explanation:
In the first section, for instance, Momaday narrates the Kiowa creation myth that the tribe emerged into the world from a hollow log, and then contextualizes the myth by describing the bleak conditions of Kiowa life before they migrated to the southern plains. In the middle section, which mirrors the historic Kiowa golden age, Momaday relays tribal stories of victorious Kiowas conquering their enemies through strength and cleverness, and he also dwells on the beauty of the landscape and the details of Kiowa religion and culture. The third section is the darkest because it mirrors the defeat of the Kiowas—it tells of the disappearance of the buffalo and the Kiowa struggle to maintain their religion and culture while under attack.
