Which of the following speeches begins with the quote: "Four score and seven years ago..."?

"The Gettysburg Address"

the "I Have a Dream" speech

Robert F. Kennedy's speech about Martin Luther King, Jr.

None of the choices are correct.

Answer:

The Gettysburg Address

Explanation: The Gettysburg Address was a speech given by President Abraham Lincoln on November 19, 1863, at the official dedication of the Soldiers National Cemetery (now called the Gettysburg National Cemetery) at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. It was an important occasion for the Nation to honor those who had given their lives during the Battle of Gettysburg.

On July 1-3, 1863, the Battle of Gettysburg was one of the bloodiest battles of the Civil War (1861-1865). The Union North and Confederate South lost more than 7,000 men during the three-day battle. Over 45,000 were wounded, and more than 10,000 were captured or missing. The cemetery was planned as the final resting place for more than 3,500 Union soldiers who lost their lives at Gettysburg.

Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address begins with the words, “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.” A score is another way of saying 20, so Lincoln was referring to 1776, which was 87 years before 1863. Lincoln was declaring that the United States would continue to fight to preserve the nation that was created by the Founding Fathers who wrote the Declaration of Independence in 1776.

Based on the passage from "roberto ignacio torres bakes" and the passage from "the dreamer," write an essay that explains how papi and neftalí change. this the passage
pablo neruda was a chilean poet and nobel prize winner who died in 1973. in this excerpt from a novel based on the true events of his life, we see the poet transform himself from a lonely boy named neftalí.
​
(2) neftalí sat in his room with the light of a flickering candle casting shadows on his walls and finished a new poem for claridad. now, he had a dilemma. this poem was to appear next week, not only in the university magazine but simultaneously in a santiago newspaper. father knew many people in santiago, and neftalí could not take the chance that father would discover he was disobeying him. besides that, he could not stop thinking about what father had said—that he was an embarrassment to the family.
​
(3) neftalí sighed and put down his pen. he picked up the local temuco newspaper and read an article about the works of a czech writer. to neftalí, the writer’s name seemed unusual and exotic. if only he had such a name. he wrote the last name on a small piece of paper. then he read it out loud, again and again.
​
(4) he pulled a book of italian poetry from his shelf and began to thumb through it, stopping at a page to read about a character named paolo.
​
(5) "paolo," he said, but it didn’t sound quite right. he translated the name into spanish and nodded, writing it on the paper next to the other name.
​
(6) the name was not only a perfect solution, it was a perfect fit. he picked up his pen again. at the end of his poem, instead of signing neftalí reyes, he wrote pablo neruda. he would use this name to save father the humiliation of having a son who was a poet. maybe he would use the name only until he became lost enough to find himself.
​
(7) maybe he would even keep the name. it might take him places. after all, it had a rhythm like a locomotive chugging uphill.
​
(8) the following morning, he slowly packed his belongings into a metal trunk: clothes, books, pens, and, of course, something for which he would never be too old—his sheep. he carefully sorted his collections into storage boxes, taking one box with him and taking the other to laurita’s room for safekeeping.
​
(9) he stood in the doorway and handed her the box. "do not let it go up in flames."
​
(10) she smiled. "i will guard it with my life."
​
(11) that night and throughout the next day, he rode third class in a car full of peasants. it smelled of damp wool from rain-soaked ponchos and wet feathers from unhappy chickens that had been tucked into baskets. but none of that bothered him because he was headed to a place of culture, a place with more like-minded people, where being a student and a poet would not be discouraged.
​
(12) when the train stopped, he gathered his trunk, put on a black, wide brimmed hat, and stepped onto the streets of santiago, to make his way in the world.
​
(13) there, in the obscurity of the big city, his writing was as persistent as the weather. poetry had laid down its path, and he had no choice but to follow. he wrote no matter what his circumstances: when he lived in rooms that were no larger than a cell; when he had barely enough money to eat; when he had no friends and pulled deep within himself; when his heart was broken or when he broke another’s; when he did not agree with the politics at the university or the politics of his country.
​
(14) he wrote.

My sister and I were looking for a snack. Way in the back of the refrigerator, I spotted two of our favorite yogurts. Perfect! When I pulled them out, I noticed the wrapper edges were frayed. It looked like they may have been there a while, and one of the containers was smashed in. My sister didn’t care and was already running for a spoon. “Careful,” I said, “Where there is smoke there’s fire. These yogurts look kind of funny. And I can’t even read the expiration date.”

“You just want them for yourself,” she said, as she ripped off the wrapper. “Yikes!” she yelled, and we both held our noses.

Keisha’s heart raced as she waited for her turn to go onstage. She had practiced her dance routine hundreds of times, but she was terrified that she would slip and fall in front of the large audience, which included her dance teacher and her whole extended family. Finally Keisha took a deep breath and trotted to center stage behind the curtain, striking a fierce pose.

A.

Keisha’s performance went off without a snag. Afterward, even her twin brother Colin congratulated her: “You didn’t even slip and fall down!” he joked.

B.

Keisha danced flawlessly and finished with a grin. As she took her bows, she slipped and landed hard on her tailbone—she hadn’t practiced that part.

C.

As the music began, Keisha moved gracefully around the stage. She did slip once but recovered with a smile, confident that the audience did not notice.

D.

Backstage, Keisha’s twin brother Colin chuckled quietly to himself. Above the curtain he had perched a large bucket of water—perfect for dousing his sister and the stage.
