6. Each looked for an easier triumph, and a result less fundamental and and astounding. Both read the same bible and pray to the same god; and each invokes his aid against the other. It may seem strange that any man should dare to ask a just gods assistance in wringing their bread from the sweat of other men's faces; but let us judge not that we be not judged" - Lincoln

Both are right.
To find the answer to question 6, we can analyze the given excerpt from Lincoln's statement. In the excerpt, Lincoln mentions that both parties in question read the same Bible and pray to the same God, but each invokes God's aid against the other. This suggests that religious freedom is being expressed, as each party is freely exercising their beliefs and seeking guidance from their chosen deity. Therefore, the correct answer is option C) religious freedom.
To find the answer to question 7, we can evaluate the differences between the government systems of Britain and the United States mentioned in the options. Option A states that the British government is bound by the rule of law, which is a fundamental principle shared by both countries. Option B suggests that the British federal government has power over the states, but in reality, Britain does not have a federal system like the United States. Option D mentions that the British constitution includes a list of individual rights, which is not necessarily true as Britain's constitution is based on various statutes and legal principles rather than a single written document like the United States Constitution. However, option C states that the leader of Britain is chosen by the legislature, which accurately distinguishes the British system of having a parliamentary democracy where the Prime Minister is selected from the legislative body (the Parliament). Thus, the correct answer is option C) the leader of Britain is chosen by the legislature.
