## Step 1 The first step in solving this problem is to understand the context of the speech. The speech is the Gettysburg Address, delivered by President Abraham Lincoln during the American Civil War. The speech is known for its profound and inspiring words, which emphasize the importance of the war and the sacrifices made by the soldiers. ## Step 2 Next, we need to analyze each of the given options in light of the speech's content. ## Step 3 Option A, "The battle at Gettysburg was hard fought," is not the main idea of the speech. While the speech does mention the battle, it does not focus on the specifics of the battle. ## Step 4 Option B, "Lincoln will be re-elected due to the war," is also not the main idea of the speech. The speech does not discuss Lincoln's political future or his chances of re-election. ## Step 5 Option C, "The nation will most likely cease to exist due to the war," is not the main idea of the speech. The speech does not express a pessimistic view of the nation's future. ## Step 6 Option D, "Brave men died fighting a war that will test the strength of the nation," is the main idea of the speech. The speech emphasizes the sacrifices made by the soldiers and the importance of the war in testing the strength of the nation.
