The words that alliterate are

fens

Yuki888 [10]

Answer: B) Alexander expanded his empire, thus spreading Greek culture.

Explanation: The passage "Alexander the Great" explains the life and journey of Alexander and addresses several facts that led to his success, such as his father's participation in expanding Greek culture and his short rule.

What is not one of Mark Antony’s true intentions behind his speech
erastovalidia [21]

Answer: To befriend and support the conspirators.

Explanation:

Mark Antony is a character from Shakespeare's <em>Julius Caesar</em>. He is Caesar's supporter and friend. It is due to his support that Caesar managed to become as successful as he is, and to be the ruler of Rome. However, Roman Senators, including Brutus and Cassius, decide to murder Caesar, as he has become too powerful. Upon Caesar's death, Mark Antony delivers a speech which makes people who loved Caesar both sad and angry, weakens the conspirators' control, and affects the emotions of the audience through the use of demagogic language. Therefore, the purpose of the speech was quite the opposite of befriending and supporting the conspirators.
