Greedy. Pahom was poor, but he wanted as much land as he could get. When he had opportunity to get more land, (as much as he can walk in a day) he killed himself from over-working himself. He is also a static character. And a protagonist. Don't know what kind of answer you're looking for.

"When the legislative and executive powers are united in the same leader, or in the same group of leaders, there can be no liber
Ronch [10]

Answer:

Separation of powers

Explanation:

In this quote from Baron de Montesquieu, he stated that if the legislative and executive arms of government are aways in unity then, the checks and balances that should be in government would be absent and this would result in a lack of liberty.

The arms of government are supposed to have a separation of powers or a high degree of independence so that one arm of government does not assume an authoritarian disposition that would lead to a loss of liberty for the people.

olga_2 [115]

Answer: I haven't read the book so please take this with a grain of salt but I believe the answer would be C, "As teenagers get older, parents should help them avoid more serious negative consequences." Exerting control might be too much, letting the teenager be too rebellious would lead to disobeyment, and letting them do it again isn't a good idea. I apologize if you get the answer wrong, good luck!
