Answer:
Quoted from Virgil's "The Aeneid" and poken by Anchises, the father of Aeneas.
Explanation:
Taken from Book VI of "The Aeneid" by Virgil, the quoted excerpt is spoken by Anchises to Aeneas. Meeting his dead father's soul to in the underworld, Aeneas was told by his father about the fate of Rome.
Through the speech or voice of the wise father, Virgil propounds his own personal ideals, propagating that the Romans should try to be more merciful in their conquests. Virgil uses Anchises as a means to voice his own beliefs and wants for Rome to do and stand for. Anchises uses rhetoric in saying that the Roman Empire's justification for what it had done to bring upon justice and law is the same as the Trojans' and Aeneas had made when they settled in Rome.

Answer:
B
Explanation:
The main idea is to present the feelings the person had before amazon became what it is today. I had my own misgivings about ordering on line until I realized that I really had no choice. I live in a small community of about 800 people. There is a Walmart in the next town over (which has a population of 5000), but I'm not fond of what they did to small businesses.
So the choice was shop at a place I don't like or order through the mail. I didn't really make up my mind until about 2 years ago. Then it was fine.
The author of what you quoted had many of the same feelings. It's a gamble putting money where the system can be broken into and that is what this is all about -- fear of trying something you don't trust.
The answer is B, I think
