Answer:

The Athenian boys were taught to read, write and quote portions of literary works. They also taught singing and playing and trained as athletes or trained as warriors. They did not acquire this education to qualify for a job but to earn the right to be full citizens.

Explanation:

Athenian girls were taught to read, write and the simple account needed to run a household. After their childhood, they almost never received additional education.

Boys from wealthy families who went to private schools were taken care of by pedagogues - paidagogos, domestic slaves who were selected specifically for this purpose and accompanied by these boys. Classes were held in teachers' homes where the boys were taught the above subjects. From the age of twelve, the boys practiced wrestling, running and discus throwing and javelin throwing. And the Athenians are older boys taught by more sophisticated disciplines such as culture, science, music and art. Education ended at 18 years followed by military training for 1-2 years.

Citizens elect leaders who form a council to make decisions
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

Government system where elected leaders make decisions on behalf of the people

A democracy is a government in which political power—influence over institutions, leaders, and policies—rests in the hands of the people. In a representative democracy, however, the citizens do not govern directly. Instead, they elect representatives to make decisions and pass laws on behalf of all the people.

In line 45-46, Mandela says, “We must therefore act together as a united people, for national reconciliation, for nation buildin
Dovator [93]

I think that what Mandela means when he speaks of nation building is creating a world where everyone is equal and has rights. I think this because we know that there was a huge racial injustice at the time and Mandela was fighting for black rights. He also used the word reconciliation which means making a view or belief compatible with another or the restoration of friendly relations.

I hope this helped.
