DRAFT:
(He has endeavored to bring on the inhabitants of our
frontiers the merciless Indian savages, whose known rule
of warfare is an undistinguished destruction of all ages,
sexes, & conditions of existence.
[He has incited treasonable insurrections of our fellow
citizens, with the allurements of forfeiture & confiscation
of our property.
REVISION:
He has excited domestic Insurrection amongst us, and has
endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers,
the merciless Indian Savages, whose known rule of
warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages,
sexes and conditions.
Why might the Continental Congress have revised this portion of the draft?
O A. The second paragraph in the draft stated a falsehood that couldn't
be substantiated, so the revision makes the passage more
reliable.
O B. The second paragraph was redundant in the draft, so the revision
cut it completely
O c. The second paragraph in the draft was off-topic, so cutting it in the
revision helped make this passage more linear.
O D. The revision incorporates the same idea in a more concise way.
because the second paragraph of the draft is redundant.

Which two passages in this excerpt from the death of ivan illych does leo tolstoy use to suggest that ivan ilych feels like his life is slipping away from him? "what's the use? it makes no difference," he said to himself, staring with wide-open eyes into the darkness. "death. yes, death. and none of them knows or wishes to know it, and they have no pity for me. now they are playing." (he heard through the door the distant sound of a song and its accompaniment.) "it's all the same to them, but they will die too! fools! i first, and they later, but it will be the same for them. and now they are merry . . the beasts! " anger choked him and he was agonizingly, unbearably miserable. "it is impossible that all men have been doomed to suffer this awful horror! " he raised himself. "something must be wrong. i must calm myself—must think it all over from the beginning." and he again began thinking. "yes, the beginning of my illness: i knocked my side, but i was still quite well that day and the next. it hurt a little, then rather more. i saw the doctors, then followed despondency and anguish, more doctors, and i drew nearer to the abyss. my strength grew less and i kept coming nearer and nearer, and now i have wasted away and there is no light in my eyes.
