Work in pairs and put the following statements about Abraham Lincoln in the correct order. Then read the passage and check your answers.
Abraham Lincoln was born in Kentucky in 1809. His mother died when he was ten years old. Later, his family moved to Illinois and his father remarried. The family was poor, so they had to struggle just to live. In Illinois, there were neither teachers nor schools, but Lincoln’s stepmother encouraged him to study. He learned to read and write while working on the farm.
At twenty-one, Lincoln left home. He soon received a law license and became a lawyer. People trusted him and began to call him “Honest Abe”.
During the following years, he took a more active part in politics. Soon he was not only a highly respected lawyer but also a well-known politician. He was elected the sixteenth president of the United States in 1860, and in the next year the Civil War broke out.
The Civil War was between the southern states that wanted to leave the Union and form their own country, and the northern states that wanted to keep all the states as one country. The southern states wanted to keep the laws that allowed them to own slaves. Both the northern states and President Lincoln wanted to get rid of those laws. On April 9, 1865, the Civil War ended and all slaves were set free.
Less than a week later, on April 14, 1865, Abraham Lincoln was shot at the Ford Theatre in Washington, DC. He died the next day from his wounds.
