Read the following excerpt from the article "Vision, Voice and the Power of Creation: An Author Speaks Out," by T. A. Barron and

answer the question that follows:
Right now, I am spending a lot of time listening to the voice of a particularly compelling character: the young Merlin. In the end, I finally heard the voice of Merlin thanks to a surprising source: the haunting, mysterious hooting of a great horned owl outside the window of my Colorado home. As I listened to that owl's resonant [echoing] call in the pre-dawn hours one morning, something about it gave me a whole new cadence [rhythm], a whole new sound. And then, a whole new voice.

The author states, "I finally heard the voice of Merlin thanks to a surprising source: the haunting, mysterious hooting of a great horned owl outside the window of my Colorado home." What is the author's implicit message in this statement?

The author thought Merlin's voice should seem like it is hooting.
The author wished he had thought of Merlin's voice sooner.

Read the passage from chapter 17 of the prince. Nevertheless
Marysya12 [62]

The impact that the words <em>feared</em> and <em>hatred </em>in the chapter 17 of The Prince have on the meaning of the passage is that they suggest that a ruler who is feared can retain power, while a ruler who is hated is less likely to do so.

In this chapter, Machiavelli establishes an important distinction between 'feared' and 'hatred'. The author argues that a prince should make himself feared by the masses but not hated. Moreover,<u> he states that one way of avoid being hatred is leaving his citizens' property intact</u>. According to Machiavelli, it is important to avoid being hatred because, unlike being feared, <u>a hated prince is more likely to lose his power due to the angry masses</u>.
