Respuesta :

1st is a 4.d 5.c 6.b 7.d 8.b 9.a i really do hope this helps

On the first question, first notice that he says that "these dead shall not have died in vain", which means that we can rule out B and D, because he has already said that the deaths were not for bad of the country. Now, using common sense, we can see that he is obviously not talking about the birth of a child, so it is A.

On the second question, first note that it cannot be A or C, as he would have spoke bad about the people who died. If it was B, then he would have emphasized what he said. He did not, so the answer is D.

As for the others, are they still referring to the passage, or something else?
