Question

Which statement from Henry’s speech is a fact? A.“There is no longer any room for hope.” B. “Our chains are forged! Their clanking may be heard on the planes of Boston.” C. “Our brethren are already in the field!” D. “Give me liberty or give me death!”

Answer 1

I believe it’s c I’m pretty sure

Answer 2

A fact is a statement that can be proven, and it is no biased by the opinion of the writer. Moreover, a fact is very direct, and it does not rely on the use of figures of speech that can affect the clear understanding of the sentence. Hence, sentences D and A are not facts because they are biased by the opinion of the writer; sentence B is not correct because it is a hyperbole. The sentence that represents a fact and that can be proven is C: "Our brethren are already in the field!"
