Read the passage from Utopia. They detest war as a very brutal thing, and which, to the reproach of human nature, is more practi

sed by men than by any sort of beasts. They, in opposition to the sentiments of almost all other nations, think that there is nothing more inglorious than that glory that is gained by war; and therefore, though they accustom themselves daily to military exercises and the discipline of war, in which not only their men, but their women likewise, are trained up, that, in cases of necessity, they may not be quite useless, yet they do not rashly engage in war, unless it be either to defend themselves or their friends from any unjust aggressors, or, out of good nature or in compassion, assist an oppressed nation in shaking off the yoke of tyranny. Which quotation from the passage best summarizes the central idea?

"They...<span>think that there is nothing more inglorious than that glory that is gained by war"

This quotation sums up the main idea because it not only reinforces to the reader that they are against war, but it gives some insight into why they are against war. The people think that there is no glory to be gained in war, so they choose to just prepare a defensive army, never an offensive one. </span>

Read the passage from "Gid."
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

She would explain why she is so concerned about  Girl.

Explanation:

The passage would most likely change if Girl's mother was the narrator by explaining her concern for her daughter and why she would want her to be upright and be a good daughter.

From the passage given, it is narrated from the perspective of Girl where she talks about how her mother always tells her not to sing Benna in Sunday School, eat her food in such a way that it won't turn her stomach, walk like a lady and so on. We can infer that Girl is exasperated and tired of her mother's interference in her life and does not really understand her mother as she believes she is trying to control her life.

Narrating the story from her mother's point of view would enable her to explain why she is so concerned about her daughter, not as if she is controlling her.

How does the characterization and plot in "the day i got lost" reveal the theme of the story
RSB [31]

Answer:

The theme of the story is "trusting family and friends when you need them"

It is easy to identify the theme, since the main character goes through an ordeal when he gets lost;  however, relying on a friend lets him find the way out of the situation.

Building long-life relationships is also shown in the story as a virtue, since the character had a shy personality and it was really hard for him to make friends.
