Here is the full passage for this question:

<span>There is likewise another diversion which is only shown before the emperor and the empress, and first minister, upon particular occasions. The emperor lays on the table three fine silken threads of six inches long; one is purple, the other yellow, and the third white. These threads are proposed as prizes for those persons whom the emperor has a mind to distinguish by a peculiar mark of his favor. . . . The emperor holds a stick in his hands, both ends parallel to the horizon, while the candidates advancing, one by one, sometimes leap over the stick, sometimes creep under it, backward and forward, several times, according as the stick is advanced or depressed.
</span>

I think the answer would be: <span>The emperor rewards his subjects for jumping over and under a stick.

The full passage basically tell the readers about the strange contest that both the emperor and the empress like to conduct. We can see from the third sentence that those who are able to finish emperor's contest will be rewarded with a thread of silk.</span>

Hello
Alik [6]

The title of the persuasive essay you have been asked to write is "What I can Do". This has been simplified for you. Here is how to use the guide.

<h3>How do you complete the attached essay template?</h3>

First, keep in mind that the objective of the Persuasive Essay is to convince the reader about what you can do.

To keep it simple, stick to one activity that you can do. Then state this in the introduction.

For example, "I can do may things both at home and in school, however, one of the most important things that I can do is...............".

In the second paragraph, this is where you state examples of the times and places where you have demonstrated the use of the skill that you mentioned in the introduction. This part (the second paragraph) is the body of the essay.

In the third paragraph, summarize all that you have said. This part is the conclusion.
