Read this passage from chapter 5 of The Prince.
What is Machiavelli's primary purpose in writing this
passage?

~But when cities or countries are accustomed to live
under a prince, and his family is exterminated, they,
being on the one hand accustomed to obey and on
the other hand not having the old prince, cannot
agree in making one from amongst themselves, and
they do not know how to govern themselves. For
this reason they are very slow to take up arms, and
a prince can gain them to himself and secure them
much more easily. But in republics there is more
vitality, greater hatred, and more desire for
vengeance, which will never permit them to allow
the memory of their former liberty to rest; so that the
safest way is to destroy them or to reside there.

A.to inform readers about the differences between
principalities and republics
le
B.to entertain readers with exciting stories of
historical wars, conquests and rebellions

C.to convince readers that, to hold a conquered
republic, a prince must ruin it or live there

D.to persuade readers that a prince must eradicate
the royal family of a conquered principality

Read the passage. Eating healthy requires maintaining a balanced diet. Although “fad diets” are constantly being circulated, they are actually more harmful to your body than maintaining a balanced diet. “Fad diets” will often try to promote a certain food that will rid the body of fat. For example, grapefruit and lemons are frequently added to diets because they supposedly combat fats with their acidity. Despite whether this claim is true, the more important question is, are you really going to eat grapefruit at every meal for the rest of your life? Probably not. You are more likely to stay healthy by eating a variety of fruits and vegetables. You will enjoy the various flavors, and you will get the many different nutrients your body needs. Finding a healthy balance that works for you is much healthier than jumping from one extreme diet to the next. Which sentence from the passage contains a supporting detail that answers the question, Why should people eat a balanced diet? “Fad diets” will often try to promote a certain food that will rid the body of fat. You will enjoy the various flavors, and you will get the many different nutrients your body needs. For example, grapefruit and lemons are frequently added to diets because they supposedly combat fats with their acidity. Eating healthy requires maintaining a balanced diet.

In a minimum of 150 words, discuss the rhythm and rhyme of “She Walks In Beauty” by Lord Byron. How do these devices affect your reading of the
poem. How does it affect the poem's meaning?

Answers

Answer:

SHE walks in beauty, like the night

Of cloudless climes and starry skies,

And all that's best of dark and bright

Meets in her aspect and her eyes;

Thus mellow'd to that tender light

Which Heaven to gaudy day denies.One shade the more, one ray the less,

Had half impair'd the nameless grace

Which waves in every raven tress

Or softly lightens o'er her face,

Where thoughts serenely sweet express

How pure, how dear their dwelling-place.

And on that cheek and o'er that brow

So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,

The smiles that win, the tints that glow,

But tell of days in goodness spent,—

A mind at peace with all below,

A heart whose love is innocent.

INSTRUCTIONS In this assignment, you will revise the story below to create your own story an improved final draft. You will also submit a reflection paragraph.

PARAGRAPH:On March 15, 2014, the residents of New York City buried a time capsule. Their hope was that on March 15, 2114, it would be opened and the future residents of NYC would see what life was like 100 years in the past. Locked away in the titanium cylinder were important artifacts from the present day. The objects were chosen by citizens from all walks of life and professions: librarians, teens, computer programmers, medical professionals, research scientists, gardeners, biologists, and more. Etched onto the surface of the time capsule were the words of a famous author, William Faulkner: "I believe that man will not merely endure. He will prevail….because he has a soul, a spirit capable of compassion and sacrifice and endurance." The capsule was buried with much hope for the future. Sadly, things didn’t turn out as they had hoped. By March 15, 2514, New York had become a desperate place. Something big had changed. The city was in near ruins. Citizens were terrified. Two teens – or kidz, as they were called now – were on their way home from a secret meeting. As they walked in the shadows to avoid detection, they tripped on a huge titanium cylinder. Etched into the surface were a series of scratched-out words. The only words they could make out were, "He will prevail." The kidz dragged the heavy cylinder into a hidden alleyway and twisted it open. The glow from their flashlights revealed what was inside. With gasps of relief, they looked at each other with hope in their eyes for the first time in years.

From "A Nocturnal Reverie" by Anne Finch When a sedate content the spirit feels, And no fierce light disturbs, whilst it reveals;
But silent musings urge the mind to seek Something, too high for syllables to speak; Till the free soul to a composedness charmed,
Finding the elements of rage disarmed, O'er all below a solemn quiet grown, Joys in the inferior world, and thinks it like her own:
Which of the following accurately paraphrases the passage?
Human beings inspire one another to pursue the joys of quiet reflection.
Human beings can overcome rage only at night.
O Nature makes the human spirit content and inspires human beings by its beauty.

Bush’s speech to the troops on the USS Abraham Lincoln Our mission continues. Al-Qaida is wounded, not destroyed. The scattered cells of the terrorist network still operate in many nations, and we know from daily intelligence that they continue to plot against free people. The proliferation of deadly weapons remains a serious danger. The enemies of freedom are not idle, and neither are we. Our government has taken unprecedented measures to defend the homeland — and we will continue to hunt down the enemy before he can strike. The war on terror is not over, yet it is not endless. We do not know the day of final victory, but we have seen the turning of the tide. No act of the terrorists will change our purpose, or weaken our resolve, or alter their fate. Their cause is lost. Free nations will press on to victory. Other nations in history have fought in foreign lands and remained to occupy and exploit. Americans, following a battle, want nothing more than to return home. And that is your direction tonight. After service in the Afghan and Iraqi theaters of war — after 100,000 miles, on the longest carrier deployment in recent history — you are homeward bound. Some of you will see new family members for the first time — 150 babies were born while their fathers were on the Lincoln. Your families are proud of you, and your nation will welcome you. How is the third paragraph different from the first two? It no longer sounds authoritative or informed about the situation. It broadens its view to consider the service people around the world. It gets more specific by talking about the service people on the USS Lincoln. It comes across as unfeeling and insensitive to the people who have suffered.

The lady and her companion rose, went to the table together with Federigo, who waited upon them with the greatest devotion, and they ate the good falcon without knowing what it was they were eating. And having left the table and spent some time in pleasant conversation, the lady thought it time now to say what she had come to say, and so she spoke these kind words to Federigo: “Federigo, if you recall your past life and my virtue, which you perhaps mistook for harshness and cruelty, I do not doubt at all that you will be amazed by my presumption when you hear what my main reason for coming here is; but if you had children, through whom you might have experienced the power of parental love, it seems certain to me that you would, at least in part, forgive me. But, just as you have no child, I do have one, and I cannot escape the common laws of other mothers; the force of such laws compels me to follow them, against my own will and against good manners and duty, and to ask of you a gift which I know is most precious to you; and it is naturally so, since your extreme condition has left you no other delight, no other pleasure, no other consolation; and this gift is your falcon, which my son is so taken by that if I do not bring it to him, I fear his sickness will grow so much worse that I may lose him. And therefore I beg you, not because of the love that you bear for me, which does not oblige you in the least, but because of your own nobility, which you have shown to be greater than that of all others in practicing courtliness, that you be pleased to give it to me, so that I may say that I have saved the life of my son by means of this gift, and because of it I have placed him in your debt forever.” A. casual B. friendly C. formal D. gracious please give me the right answer quick I have a test

The graduation requirements for Penn Foster High School are:

- You must complete 21.5 credits in various subjects, such as English, math, science, social studies, and electives.

- You must achieve an overall course grade of 65% or above in each subject.

- You must adhere to the home school requirements indicated by your school district or state if you are of compulsory age.

- You must have a high school diploma or GED equivalency certificate if you want to enroll in Penn Foster College or some career diploma programs after graduating from Penn Foster High School.

Based on these requirements, it is unlikely that you can graduate Penn Foster HS by skipping the assignments and just doing well on the exams.

This is because:

- The assignments are part of your course grade and skipping them would lower your overall grade below 65%.

- The assignments are designed to help you learn and practice the skills and knowledge that you need for the exams and for your future education or career.

- The assignments are also part of your home school requirements and skipping them would make you truant or non-compliant with your state's laws.

The conclusion has to have 3-4 sentence, and specific to general.

Answers

Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

Since the ratification of the second amendment in 1791, citizens of the United States have been given the right to bear arms. To purchase a gun, buyers must go through a background check to ensure they are not a criminal. Most people have access to buying guns as the process is fairly simple. Guns should not be banned in public because they provide self defense, make the carrier feel safer, and most gun owners have gone through training to use the gun.  

To begin with, although background checks are in place before purchasing firearms, criminals could find ways to own a gun illegally. If a felon gets possession of a gun and enters a public place with malicious intentions, many people could be hurt and even killed. The police may be too far away to spare every life; however, if there is a good person in the area that is armed with a gun, they could use it and stop the situation before innocent people are killed.  

In addition, the owner of a firearm may feel safer knowing they can protect themselves and others. For example, if a bad situation were to occur, the gun bearer would feel much more at ease knowing that they could save themselves. When walking alone at night or entering a high risk area, a gun could be the difference between saving their own life or getting killed.  

Finally, the majority of gun owners go through a gun safety and training course. This is to ensure they know how to use a gun and so they do not make any deadly mistakes when handling one. Some may not have had professional training, but instead have had a friend or family member show them how to use a firearm. Either way, gun owners are aware of how to fire, reload, and overall handle the weapon.

In conclusion, guns should be allowed in public spaces because it makes the owner feel at ease, can save lives, and the gun owners are trained in using a gun. Feeling safe is important when in public. Guns are also used as a means of protection when in the right person’s hands. Most firearm owners have gone through some sort of training and know how to handle a gun. Guns are beneficial in public to save lives and should not be banned.
