Oseph chamberlain. i cannot look forward without dread to handing over the security and existence of this great empire to the hands of those who have made common cause with its enemies, who have charged their own countrymen with methods of barbarism, and who apparently have been untouched by that pervading sentiment which i found everywhere where the british flag floats, and which has done so much in recent years to draw us together. i should not require to go to south africa in order to be convinced that this feeling has obtained deep hold on the minds and hearts of our children beyond the seas. it has had a hard life of it, this feeling of imperial patriotism. it was checked for a generation by the apathy and the indifference which were the characteristics of our former relations with our colonies, but it was never extinguished. the embers were still alight, and when in the late war this old country of ours showed that it was still possessed by the spirit of our ancestors, and that it was still prepared to count no sacrifice that was necessary in order to maintain the honor and the interests of the empire, then you found a response from your children across the seas that astonished the whole world by a proof, an undeniable proof, of affection and regard. read the excerpt from "a tryst with destiny” by jawaharlal nehru. long years ago we made a tryst with destiny, and now the time comes when we shall redeem our pledge, not wholly or in full measure, but very substantially. at the stroke of the midnight hour, when the world sleeps, india will awake to life and freedom. a moment comes, which comes but rarely in history, when we step out from the old to the new, when an age ends, and when the soul of a nation, long suppressed, finds utterance. it is fitting that at this solemn moment we take the pledge of dedication to the service of india and her people and to the still larger cause of humanity. at the dawn of history india started on her unending quest, and trackless centuries are filled with her striving and the grandeur of her success and her failures. through good and ill fortune alike she has never lost sight of that quest or forgotten the ideals which gave her strength. we end today a period of ill fortune and india discovers herself again. which elements of an argument do these two passages share? select three options. the same claim the same purpose a call to action an appeal to emotion an appeal to reason
