Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

"Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

—"The Gettysburg Address," Abraham Lincoln

Which quotation correctly uses an ellipsis to shorten Lincoln’s words?

“Four score and seven years ago . . . a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.”

“Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent . . . and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.”

“Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation . . . dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.”

Explanation:

Ellipsis are widely used in a text to show hesitation in a character's speech, or to shorten a text by deleting some sentences. However, it is necessary to keep in mind the correct way to use it so that the text is coherent and cohesive.

In relation to the question above, the only option that shows the correct use of reticences is “Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation. . . dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. ” This is because the reticence must be used between complete sentences and without prepositions, showing that the thought in the sentence before the reticence has already been concluded and showing that the thought of the sentence after the reticence incites a new thought. In this way the text is understandable and coherent.
