Answer:

It is said that the president did not think much of his speech since he heard only polite applause when he finished. But perhaps this was more of a stunned silence than a hostile crowd. In two short minutes, Lincoln was able to establish that

Which statement best explains this excerpt from act v, scene I, of Twelfth Night? SEBASTIAN: [to OLIVIA] So comes it, lady, you
Feliz [49]
This scene comes at the end of the play, as all has been revealed. In this scene, 

Sebastian says: "<span>So comes it, lady, you have been mistook." By this he means that Olivia has been mistaken, or wrong. He continues, "But nature to her bias drew in that." By this he means, nature has fixed your error and made it right.
 
He explains, "You would have been contracted to a maid," meaning that Olivia would have married a maiden, or a young woman. However, he continues by saying, "Nor are you therein, by my life, deceived; You are betroth'd both to a maid and man." He means that Olivia is not entirely deceived, or not entirely wrong. He says that Olivia married both a young woman AND a young man. He does not mean this literally, of course, since that isn't quite what happened. Instead, he means that the love Olivia had for Sebastian's sister has been transferred into a love for him. And, since he is still a virgin, he is a "maiden" as well as a man.</span>

Now, let's look at the statements:

<span>Sebastian explains that the case of mistaken identity has worked in Olivia’s favor because she has married Sebastian, not Viola.
-- This statement best summarizes Sebastian's words to Olivia. 

Sebastian says that Olivia has mistakenly married a woman instead of a man, which goes against the "bias" of nature.
-- Olivia has not mistakenly married a woman; therefore, this statement would not be correct.

Sebastian is mocking Olivia because she married someone without really knowing that person's identity.
-- Sebastian is not mocking Olivia at all; instead, he is trying to explain how Olivia's mistake worked in their favor after all.

Sebastian is congratulating Olivia for marrying a great man and hiring a maid to help with her household.
-- Olivia has not married a maid to help with her household; this statement as a result is not correct.

Sebastian is unwilling to get married and tells Olivia that it would be a mistake to expect him to do so. 
</span>-- This is not at all what he is saying, as he is in love with Olivia; this statement would not be correct.

Describe how the Mary Rowland's experience during her captivity is a metaphor for a devout Puritan society. (250-300 words)
Yuri [45]
<span>During the time spent disclosing to her story, Rowlandson uncovers much about Puritan culture and states of mind towards ladies and Native Americans; comparably, she gives data about Native American culture, however regularly without acknowledging or even obviously understanding it. Rowlandson's personal record of her internment set up the model for ensuing imprisonment accounts, and her accentuation on her part as mother laid the foundation for later ladies' written work, including some African American slave stories.</span>

How do Circe’s words in paragraph 5 help to advance the plot?
kifflom [539]

When Odysseus decides to leave Circe in Book 10, she helps him by giving him encouragement, knowledge about the future and concrete advice. When Odysseus hears that he must go to the House of Death, he feels despondent, but with the support of Circe, Odysseus feels he is able to lead his men to the Kingdom of the Dead with confidence. Circe tells Odysseus to trust the North Wind, and she also explains to him exactly what to expect when he gets to Persephone's Grove. This knowledge about the future is reassuring to Odysseus, as something frightening becomes familiar with Circe's descriptions. Finally, Circe instructs Odysseus clearly, telling him exactly what to do at different steps of his journey. As well, Circe tells Odysseus that Tiresias will appear to him and tell him how to get home, which may be the words of encouragement Odysseus needs the most.
