question 7 of 10
in the gettysburg address, what emotion did president lincoln try to tap into when he spoke about the principles the country was founded on?

a. joy

b. pride

c. fear

d. shame

Explanation:

In the Gettysburg Address, Lincoln spoke about the nation's founding principles (like equality and liberty) to evoke a sense of pride in the country's ideals and history, aiming to unify and inspire. Joy (A) is not fitting as the context was solemn; Fear (C) and Shame (D) are negative emotions, inconsistent with the address's tone of honoring the nation's roots.

Answer:

B. Pride
