Answer:

It shows he is arrogant because he talks just as much as Pickering.

Explanation:

"Pygmalion" is a play written by George Bernard Shaw.

Henry Higgins was a professor and the author of Higgins' Universal Alphabet. He is cold-hearted and rude though he was very educated. In Act 1, is the first time when the readers get to meet Higgins. He was sitting at the Covent Garden with others who were waiting for the rain to stop. He was sitting at the back of the crowd noting everyone and making notes.

On page 5, the character of Higgins is developed by picturizing him as an arrogant man as he talks so much. His conversation with Pickering reveals that he is a rude and arrogant man and not a gentleman as one would expect an educated man to be.

Thus the correct answer is the first option.

Delvig [45]

The answer is:

Machiavelli forces readers to carefully consider the meanings of the words merciful and mercy.

In the passage from "The Prince," the author Niccolò Machiavelli mentions the words mercy and merciful intending to make readers contemplate their meanings with special circumspection. Thus, <em>mercy </em>is compassion towards somebody one can hurt or punish, and <em>merciful </em>means benevolent. In that respect, Machiavelli suggests that an unsympathetic ruler can preserve power rather than a compassionate one.
