Write a simple argumentative essay about Which secondary languages are worth studying today?

Answer:

It would be fair to say that in 2018, and with every year that follows in the 21st century, the connections between different countries, societies and cultures becomes stronger and stronger, and what used to be completely out of an ordinary individual’s remit, is now decidedly less ‘foreign’ to them thanks in large part to the kinds of technological and cultural developments that have joined together nearly all of the far flung corners of the world.

With both multiculturalism and the opportunity for travel being bigger and better than at other time in history, it is now more important than ever for people to have at least some knowledge and understanding of languages other than own native tongue. It would be fair to argue that if civilisation continues to move in the direction it has been going for centuries, where world travel becomes increasingly easier and the ability to put down new roots in different areas of the world becomes increasingly common, then there will be more need than ever to have understanding and practical knowledge of secondary languages.

Which two sentences support Abraham Lincoln’s claim that his presidency was not a threat to the Southern states?

There has never been any reasonable cause for such apprehension. Indeed, the amplest evidence to the contrary has all the while existed and been open to their inspection. It is found in nearly all the published speeches of him who now addresses you. I do but quote from one of those speeches when I declare that–


I have no purpose, directly or indirectly, to interfere with the institution of slavery in the States where it exists. I believe I have no lawful right to do so, and I have no inclination to do so.
