I. Read the passage and do the task that follows.
Abraham Lincoln, the 16th president of the United States, was one of the truly great men of all time.
He preserved the American Union during the Civil War and proved to the world that democracy can be a
lasting form of government. Lincoln's Gettysburg Address, and many of his other speeches and writings,
are classic statements of democratic beliefs and goals.
Lincoln's outstanding asset was insight. Lincoln realized at the beginning of the Civil War that the
Union must be saved. The United States was the only important democracy in the world. Lincoln knew


that self- government would be proved a failure if the nation could be destroyed by a minority of its own
people. He determined that the nation and democracy would not be destroyed.
Lincoln's second greatest asset was his ability to express his convictions so clearly, and with such
force, that millions of Americans made them theừ own Lincoln would have been surprised that some of
his speeches came to be honoured as great literature. He sought only to be understood, and to convince.
Lincoln's third great source of strength was his iron will. The Civil War had to be carried on until the
Union was restored. At times, people in the North wavered in this purpose. Lincoln never doubted that in
the end, right would make might, and the North would triumph. His unyielding faith in victory helped to win victory.
