Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe published her book Uncle Tom's Cabin in 1852. It reminded people that Negroes were human beings and that slavery could and often did lead to inhuman treatment, including the breaking up of families whose members might be sold to different owners. The book was strongly emotional (情感的), and few books ever published have had so great an exercise of such power. Anger in the north against southern slavery became stronger and stronger, though the south continued to refuse to consider bringing it to an end. Soon it became clear that the north could not allow the continuation of slavery within the United sates. The Civil War was fought over the claim by the southern states to the right to withdraw from the Union and form a separate nation where slavery would continue; for the north the war was a just one in support not only of the maintenance (维持) of national unity, but also of the unity of a nation from which the shame of legal slavery should be done away with.

     As Mrs Thompson stood in front of her 5th grade class on the very first day of school,  she told the
children a lie. Like most teachers,  she looked at her students and said that she loved them all the same.
But that was impossible,   because there in the front row,   slumped in his seat,   was a little boy named
Teddy Stoddard.Mrs Thompson noticed that he didn't play well with the other children,   that his clothes
were messy and that he constantly needed a bath.And Teddy could be unpleasant. It got to the point
where Mrs Thompson would actually take delight in marking his papers with a broad red pen,   making
bold Xs and then putting a big "F" at the top of his papers.
     However,   when she reviewed his file,   she got a surprise.
     Teddy's first grade teacher wrote,   "Teddy is a bright child with a ready laugh. He does his work
neatly and has good manners… He is joy to be around."
     His second grade teacher wrote,   "Teddy is an excellent student,   well liked by his classmates,  
but he is troubled because his mother has a terminal illness and life at home must be a struggle."
     His third grade teacher wrote."His mother's death has been hard on him.He tries to do his best but
his father doesn't show much interest and his home life will soon affect him if some steps aren't taken."
     Teddy's fourth grade teacher wrote,   "Teddy is withdrawn and doesn't show much interest in study.
He doesn't have many friends and sometimes sleeps in class."
     Now,   Mrs Thompson was ashamed of herself and felt worse when her students brought her
beautifully wrapped Christmas presents.Teddy's present,   however,   was clumsily wrapped in rough
brown grocery paper.Taking her time she opened it to reveal Teddy's gifts,   a shine stone bracelet with
stones missing and a quarter full perfume bottle.How the children laugh!"What a pretty bracelet! Mm,  
lovely perfume! Perfect on my wrist." The children were silent.
     Alone together,   after school,   Teddy told Mrs Thompson,   "Today you smiled just like my Mom
used to."His teacher cried all right,   and from that day,   she stopped teaching reading,   writing,   and
arithmetic and began to teach children instead.
