Answer: The two correct answers are: “the townspeople” and "the judge (“jedge”)". Taken from the novel “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn” by Mark Twain (1884), Twain ridicules the townspeople and the judge in the excerpt presented above. In this passage from Chapter 23 of the novel, the duke and the dauphin make a performance so brief that the crowd nearly attacks them. They recited lines from Shakespeare in some shows, but they did not know the full meaning of the words. Twain here ridicules the townspeople and the judge because of their level of ignorance; townspeople could be easily deceived, since they did not have a basic education. Twain ridicules them through the irony in the judge’s statement saying that the townspeople truly believe it is more sensible to devise a plan to fool the others too instead of admitting they have been fooled. Finally, Huck and the duke did not perform a third show and escaped before the townspeople coming to get their revenge attack them.
In "The Prince," Machiavelli makes reference to making use of auxiliary armies, either allied or mercenary forces. He suggests that demanding extra forces to provide support to an own army is always risky. The reason is, in victory, the auxiliary army is owed a favor or might act against the party that hires it. Likewise, if the battle is lost, then the employer loses as well.

Sam: Hey Tim, are you going to the library now?
Tim: yes.
Sam: So I'm going with you because I need to return a book I borrowed yesterday.
Tim: Did you finish reading that fast?
Sam: Yes, but I just needed to read a few pages for a story project. You may not believe it, but I wasn't finding the information I needed anywhere on the internet, thankfully the library saved me with this book.
Tim: It's good that the library had what you needed. It is incredible how it is a space that can be relevant even in this digital age. I always search for books to do my projects, because it makes the research richer in relation to the sources.
Sam: We are very lucky to have a library at our school, as some are dismantling their libraries as a way of reducing their budget.
Sam: This is very sad, since the library not only contains a lot of information, but it is also a great space to study.
Tim: Really, we could study here more often, don't you think?
If something is ambiguous, the pronoun is not specific. For example, number one is correct. "They were smiling, pleased, and happy." This could refer to either the people in the audience or the rock band. Does this make sense?
1. Ambiguous "The rock band waved to the smiling, pleased, and happy people in the audience."
2. Unambiguous
3. Unambiguous -- simply due to syntax
4. Ambiguous "Some British and French students took part in a foreign exchange, but unfortunately both ethnicities disliked the food."
5. Unambiguous -- although "with her" should be a bit more specific.
