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>

What are some benefits of animals preforming in the circus
Andre45 [30]
Well, generally I don't agree with keeping animals in the circus.

But I guess in some rare cases, provided that the animals are really well treated (which excludes the bigger species, since they can't possibly not be stressed by the small amount of space circus offers), and provided that for whatever reason they can't live in the wild, (their environment is disappearing or they're hurt and would be rejected in a group), I guess it would be acceptable to  keep them in a circus.

It would probably work best for the species that more readily socialize with humans: dogs, some monkeys. Again, this would only be acceptable if animal welfare was always in the first place, and if for examples the animals could refuse performing on a given day.

In those circumstances, a circus could provide a predator- free environment for them, which would be beneficial for the animals (but again, I am very skeptical this is ever the case).
