HURRRRRYYY PLEASE HELP ASAP

Read the excerpts from Roosevelt’s "Four Freedoms" speech and Lincoln’s "Gettysburg Address.”

Roosevelt:

This nation has placed its destiny in the hands and heads and hearts of its millions of free men and women; and its faith in freedom under the guidance of God. Freedom means the supremacy of human rights everywhere. Our support goes to those who struggle to gain those rights or keep them. Our strength is our unity of purpose. To that high concept there can be no end save victory.

Lincoln:

To be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us – that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion – that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain – that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom – and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

In the excerpt, Lincoln refers to "this nation” to express the importance of fighting as one for the principle of freedom and democracy. Which sentence from Roosevelt’s speech also expresses this idea?

Freedom means the supremacy of human rights everywhere.
Our support goes to those who struggle to gain those rights or keep them.
Our strength is our unity of purpose.
To that high concept there can be no end save victory.

The correct answer is C. Our strength is our unity of purpose.
Both excerpts aim to show that only united people can overcome difficulties. Roosevelt had to lead his people out of the Great Depression, and Lincoln out of the Civil War. So both times people had to endure difficult times, and their Presidents wanted them to be united for that.
