Answer:

King Ptolemy will be  honored with an image in all temples.

Explanation:

The given passage mentions how King Ptolemy was honored by the people. Not only did the priests decide to honor him, but also <em>"his parents and his ancestors"</em>.

It was decided that they will <em>"set up in the most prominent place of every temple, an image of the EVER-LIVING King PTOLEMY, THE BELOVED OF PTAH, THE GOD EPIPHANES EUCHARISTOS"</em>. This image was to be set beside <em>"the principal god of the temple, handing him the weapon of victory"</em>. The whole passage only talks about how this honor will be made or done. Thus, the correct answer is the second option.

Answer:

Honored with an image in all temples

Explanation:

This is true for a variety of reasons. As Ptolemy was known as a very generous leader in Ancient Egypt, priests decided to honor him by placing his picture in temples. This can be proven by this sentence : "It was resolved by the priests of all the temples in the land to increase greatly the existing honors of King PTOLEMY, likewise those of his parents, and of his ancestors, and to set up in the most prominent place of every temple an image of the EVER-LIVING King PTOLEMY..."

You believe most people who are successful at work bent the rules a little to get where they are. agree or disagree
marysya [2.9K]
This isn't necessarily true, so I would have to disagree.
Although there are certainly instances of people bending the rules in order to become successful, I believe that most of them are where they are due to their talent and perhaps luck. Most of them didn't have to bend the rules - they earned their way to the top by trying hard and being bold.

Select from the drop-down menu to complete the sentence with parallel structure.
mario62 [17]
<span>D. The sculptor praxiteles

Parallel structure happens in this case when the list of items all has the same grammatical structure. The list of people first begins with the occupation (writer, orator, sculptor) and is then followed by the person's name (Isocrates, Demosthenes, Praxiteles). Options A and C do not include Praxiteles' occupation. Option B does tell you his occupation but it doesn't use the same grammatical structure.
