Read the passage from the gettysburg address by abraham lincoln. it is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain . . what does abraham lincoln propose the audience do to ensure that the men who lay dead at gettysburg shall not have died in vain? continue to fight for the preservation of the union make the battlefield at gettysburg a national park hold annual memorial services to commemorate the dead

The correct answer is " to continue to fight for the preservation of the Union."

When Lincoln states "the cause for which they gave their last full measure of their devotion" he is referring to the Union. He wants to convince the audience to continue "the great task remaining before us" which is to fight for the Union.

The answer is: continue to fight for the preservation of the Union

In the Gettysburg Address Abraham Lincoln’s purpose was to encourage the people, to inspire them to continue fighting as the Civil War was not over yet, he want to honored the deaths of the fallen soldiers by increasing the devotion for the cause “for which they gave the last full measure of devotion”, the way to ensure that these soldiers did not died in vain is completing “the great task remaining before” them.

it is natural to stand at the beginning of a research project and feel overwhelmed by the amount of published research that exists in databases, literature reviews, and reference pages. at the same time, each new research project brings the hope of discovering something new. overwhelming though a project may be, starting at the foothills of a new thread of research is a great privilege, and is best approached as an opportunity to learn rather than a drudgery. as a researcher/writer, you have the chance to dive more deeply into less frequently encountered pools of knowledge.

depending on the topic or scope of your research, it is also natural to spend many days and weeks - and in some cases months and years - searching. no matter how great or small the scope of research is, the serious researcher needs to reserve adequate time to perform a thorough survey of published articles. for an undergraduate course project, finding five or six sources might seem like plenty of material to review, but graduate-level writing projects typically involve up to 20 sources minimum.

note that the main point here is not to say that it is only the number of research articles matters most, but rather that having a broad spectrum of papers to choose from you choose your topic for at least the following two reasons: 1) a larger pool of sources provides you with a broader perspective of the topics within your scope of research and 2) along the way you will find many topics within your field that you do not want to write about! so, one particularly effective way of viewing research is not finding the absolute minimum sources to "get by", but rather to find a variety of sources that you can an artist uses negative space to "carve" shapes out of a dark guide you toward topics that are more directly relevant to your topic.

the good news is that as you research you may find that some of your sources that were published in the same decade or so will cite and reference each other.

one of the joys and privileges of research is being able to follow your curiosity; if you are truly curious about your topic, and authentically driven to find out as much as you can, then even the articles you don't find interesting will be useful for a future project, and no energy will be wasted.
