Read the excerpt from Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address. What does he mean when he says, “we cannot dedicate—we cannot consecrate—we cannot hallow, this ground”?
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate—we cannot consecrate—we cannot hallow, this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract.
A. He is waiting for a religious leader to consecrate the ground properly.
B. He is convinced that the soldiers died in vain.
C. He thinks that the soldiers themselves consecrated the ground with their sacrifice.
D. He feels that the ground cannot be dedicated until the war is over.

Secret Annex Tour ( Anne Frank )
- In the play version of the story that you will be reading, the sleeping areas are very different. Remember this when you are reading the play. Why do you think the authors of the play might have changed these sleeping arrangements for a stage play?
Answer:
Private homes and warehouses on the canalAround the small town centre, a ring of canals was created, which were used for freight transport. Merchants stored their stock in the waterfront warehouses. At the same time, the need for living space increased. And so, in 1635, Prinsengracht 263 was built: a private home adjacent to two warehouses. The land along the Amsterdam canals was in high demand, which is why many of the properties are narrow and long. In order to create more living, working and storage space, so-called ‘annexes’ were built in the backyards of existing houses. To allow daylight into both houses, the main houses and the annexes were often connected by a corridor and separated by a courtyard.

The Secret Annex of Anne FrankThe annex where Anne and her family went into hiding dates from 1739. In that year, more than a hundred years after the construction of Prinsengracht 263, the previous annex had been demolished to be replaced by a new, larger annex.Later on, another renovation took place. The basement was replaced by a room at street level. This intervention made the house suitable for companies that required office space as well as a warehouse or large workspace. Almost 200 years later, that was exactly what Otto Frank wanted for his company Pectacon.

The stairs to the hidden entrance to the Secret AnnexIn 1940, Otto Frank rented the entire building, main house and annex, from the Pieron family, who had been the owner since 1901. From that moment on, the floors of the main house and annex were no longer used separately but as a whole. The ground floor housed the workshop of the company, the first and second floors were turned into storage and office space, respectively.This required a new connection between the first and second floors. To go from the first floor to the second floor, you first had to go all the way back to the front door and step outside. There, you went through another entrance door and climbed up a second, steep staircase to the annex. To solve this problem, another staircase was constructed between the main house’s first and the second floors. This is the staircase that leads to the landing where later, a bookcase was placed in front of the entrance to the Secret Annex.

Living in hiding in the Secret AnnexWhen Anne’s sister Margot received a call-up for a labour camp in Germany, the Frank family, who lived elsewhere in Amsterdam, decided to go into hiding in the annex of the business premises immediately. They would live there mainly on the second and third floor. The only way to enter the hiding place was through the secret entrance, hidden behind the revolving bookcase.The business premises in the main house continued into the ground floor and the first floor of the annex. However, these rooms were not directly connected with the hiding place, which was located on the upper floors of the annex. And so, a casual visitor of Prinsengracht 263 would never notice what went on behind the bookcase.
Dangerous times: the annex is soldThe Pieron family, still the official owners of the building, did not know that there were people in hiding in the Secret Annex either. Just as well, because the fewer people knew about it, the better. But then, in 1943, the family sold the property to a new owner for 14,000 guilders.Anne was afraid that the takeover would lead to the discovery of the people in hiding. She wrote: 'One morning the new owner arrived with an architect to have a look at the house; luckily, Mr. Kleiman was present and showed the gentlemen everything except our little "Secret Annex," he professed to have forgotten the key of the communicating door. The new owner didn't question any further. It will be all right as long as he doesn’t come back and want to see the "Secret Annex," since then it won't look to good for us.’ (Anne Frank, B-version, 27 February 1943.) Fortunately, the owner never came back.
The demolition of the Secret Annex is preventedIt was little over a year later when things went wrong after all: the Secret Annex and the people in hiding were discovered. Of the eight people in hiding, Otto was the only one to survive the war.After the liberation, the building at Prinsengracht 263 was in

Bell Work: Identify a challenge facing students, and use specific details and examples to explain ways to overcome that challenge.
Answer:
I think a lot of students face the challenge of being overwhelmed by the amount of work they have to do everyday. They have multiple classes everyday with multiple homework assignments for each class. They are expected to be done by the next day or sooner. It can lead to forgetfulness, stress, and exhaustion.
Ways to overcome that challenge could be to have an organized system and time limits placed on how long and where you put/do your homework for each class (for students). Another way to overcome the challenge is to not assign so much work when the students have multiple classes with little time to do it all (for teachers), especially now when a lot of us are still being affected by C*vid-19 school guidelines and rules and are struggling to catch up.
Hope this helped.
