There was a woman traveling down a country road late at night in an old 1943 Dodge truck. The truck broke down, and she could not fix it. She walked to the nearest house. It was a large old house that was in disrepair. She knocked on the door, and a man answered. She explained to him what happened, and he told her that at that hour, there would be no one awake to help her. He then offered her a room for the night, and in the morning they could get someone to repair her car. She accepted. She walked in, he lead her up a long wide staircase, and then down a long hall to a bedroom door. He opened the door, she walked in, he closed the door behind her and walked away, she put her suitcase on the bed, then walked to the closet. She then opened the door, looked inside, and she knew she would die that night. The question is how did she know that she was going to die?

Select the correct text in the passage. which sentence in this excerpt from abraham lincoln's second inaugural address conveys that he wanted the us civil war to end as soon as possible? neither party expected for the war the magnitude or the duration which it has already attained. neither anticipated that the cause of the conflict might cease with or even before the conflict itself should cease. each looked for an easier triumph, and a result less fundamental and astounding. both read the same bible and pray to the same god, and each invokes his aid against the other. it may seem strange that any men should dare to ask a just inging their bread from the sweat of other men's faces, but let us judge not, that we be not judged. the prayers of both could not be answered. that of neither has been answered fully. the almighty has his own purposes. "woe unto the world because of offenses, for it must needs be that offenses come, but woe to that man by whom the offense cometh" if we shall suppose that american slavery is one of those offenses which, in the providence of god, must needs come, but which, having continued through his appointed time, he now wills to remove, and that he gives to both north and south this terrible war as the woe due to those by whom the offense came, shall we discern therein any departure from those divine attributes which the believers in a living god always ascribe to him? fondly do we hope, fervently do we pray, that this mighty scourge of war may speedily pass away. yet, if god wills that it continue until all the wealth piled by the bondsman's two hundred and fifty years of unrequited toil shall be sunk, and until every drop of blood drawn with the lash shall be paid by another drawn with the sword, as was said three thousand years ago, so still it must be said "the judgments of the lord are true and righteous altogether." reset next
