We can deduce here that the line from the passage that best supports the idea that money corrupts government is: "[Men] honor and look up to the rich man, and make a ruler of him."

<h3>What is a main idea?</h3>

Main idea actually refers to the central lesson or important message that an excerpt, passage, a line or a story is carrying. It refers to the message that the author wishes to pass across to the audience.

We see here that the passage that completes the question is:

The accumulation of gold in the treasury of private individuals is the ruin of timocracy [a state where only property owners can participate in government]; they invent illegal modes of expenditure; for what do they or their wives care about the law? . . . . And then one, seeing another grow rich, seeks to rival him, and thus the great mass of the citizens become lovers of money. . . . And so at last, instead of loving contention and glory, men become lovers of trade and money; they honor and look up to the rich man, and make a ruler of him, and dishonor the poor man.

Thus, the line that best supports the idea that that money corrupts government is "[Men] honor and look up to the rich man, and make a ruler of him."

What role does Govinda not play in Siddhartha’s life?
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

best friend

Explanation:

Govinda has come the way of Siddhartha, but on his own — <u><em>not as a disciple or as a follower of Siddhartha. </em></u>

Govinda's attaining the transcendent beatific smile and union with the river of life is, therefore, his own. Most important, he has accomplished this in the only way one can — independently.

In Siddhartha, Govinda is Siddhartha's <u>oldest friend</u>. We meet Govinda in the village of Siddhartha's birth. The story follows both of their attempts to find enlightenment. Initially, the two leave a life of great comfort, working as Brahmin and trying to find enlightenment through rituals.

Tommy, in an effort to maintain clowning's positive roots, invite dancers to weekly performance battles.
Ray Of Light [21]
Here we can observe that the verb used doesn't reflect the correct tense to express when this action took/is taking/will take place. There are many tenses where you could choose from, depending of the time of action:

Tenses: Simple, Progressive, Perfect, Perfect progressive
Times: Past, Present, and Future

Imagine all the combinations!

The simplest example we could make is if this action is a routine that happens continuously, the action verb (invite) is changed to simple present for the third person of singular (invites): 

<span>Tommy, in an effort to maintain clowning's positive roots, invites dancers to weekly performance battles.</span>
