1 Select the correct answer.
Read this excerpt from Patrick Henry's speech "Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death." What is the main idea of the text?
We have petitioned; we have remonstrated; we have supplicated; we have prostrated ourselves before the throne, and have implored its
interposition to arrest the tyrannical hands of the ministry and Parliament. Our petitions have been slighted; our remonstrances have
produced additional violence and insult; our supplications have been disregarded; and we have been spurned, with contempt, from the
foot of the thronel In vain, after these things, may we indulge the fond hope of peace and reconciliation. There is no longer any room for
hope. If we wish to be free-if we mean to preserve inviolate those inestimable privileges for which we have been so long contending-if
we mean not basely to abandon the noble struggle in which we have been so long engaged, and which we have pledged ourselves never
to abandon until the glorious object of our contest shall be obtained--we must fight! I repeat it, sir, we must fight! An appeal to arms and
to the God of hosts is all that is left us!

Buck did not cry out. he did not check himself, but drove in upon spitz, shoulder to shoulder, so hard that he missed the throat. they rolled over and over in the powdery snow. spitz gained his feet almost as though he had not been overthrown, slashing buck down the shoulder and leaping clear. twice his teeth clipped together, like the steel jaws of a trap, as he backed away for better footing, with lean and lifting lips that writhed and snarled. read this passage. explain what the conflict shows about buck and spitz.
