The correct answer is C) Acrisius represents the old order that relied on control and fear to rule; Perseus shows courage, concerns for others, and wisdom.

<em>The characters of Acrisius and Perseus illustrate the old and new kinds of leaders because Acrisius represents the old order that relied on control and fear to rule; Perseus shows courage, concerns for others, and wisdom. </em>

The reference is the Greek mythology and the Birth of Perseus. Perseus gave birth to the concept of a new leader. Not like in the past, when the leader was a fierce warrior that people feared. Perseus was also a leader that looked for the benefit of his people and he took care of them. Acrisius, on the other hand, is the representation of the old leader that controlled its people and caused them fear. In the story, when the Oracle tells him that his daughter will have a son that will kill him, Acrisius reaction is to lock her in a place. She gave birth to her son and Acrisius reaction is to throw them to the sea.

Read the excerpt from chapter 8 of The Prince.
Vesna [10]

The correct answer is answer C ("The words with positive connotations soften the ones with negative connotations to create a serious, matter-of-fact tone").

The tone of this excerpt is remarkably pragmatic for speaking about such horrific matter. Machiavelli achieves this by never losing sight of his aim, which is to instruct efficiency. <u>He's very aware of the delicate nature of the subject matter</u>. Without omitting important details even though they may seem cruel or gruesome, he's able to keep a cold tone by neutralizing these negative connotations with positive language.

This effect is made more clear in the last paragraph:

"For <u>injuries</u> ought to be done all at one time, so that, <u>being tasted less,</u> <u>offend less</u>..." - Here he's talking about necessary punishment and mercy at the same time.

"Benefits ought to be given <u>little by little</u>, so that the <u>flavour may last longer</u>..." - Machiavelli is talking about manipulation and using the word flavour which has a positive connotation that softens the cruel nature of the act.


Hope this helps!

The word biodegradable on a label doesn't necessarily mean a product is environmentally safe. true or false
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

Biodegradable means it SHOULD be safe for the environment. Meaning it can break down into natural elements. However, this is uncertain as some materials don't break down as easily, with a possibility of not having much of a difference as non-biodegradable materials.

Which main idea do the following sentences support? Dark chocolate is rich in minerals. Dark chocolate reduces blood pressure. D
Mila [183]

Answer:

July 10 – mark that date in your calendar! It’s World Chocolate Day, which calls for a celebration. You should mark October 28, too! That’s National Chocolate Day. We can’t complain about having two days devoted to chocolate, can we?

Do you have any ideas about how to celebrate Chocolate days? Here’s a thought: focus on healthy treats instead of sugar-fueled recipes. Dark chocolate has more health benefits than most people assume.

And if you don’t like dark chocolate because of its sweet bitterness, you probably didn’t discover the right way to enjoy it. Here’s how you do it: take a piece in your mouth and don’t chew it. Just allow it to melt on your tongue, and you’ll feel the full flavor of cocoa butter overcoming the bitter notes.

It’s wonderful!

You can use dark chocolate in easy healthy recipes. They are simple, too! You just mix cocoa butter, cocoa, honey, hazelnuts, and vanilla extract. You mold and cool. And there’s your home-made healthy chocolate, ready to be enjoyed.

You might be wondering: what makes the dark bar better than all other types of chocolate? Why should you replace the sugary, milky dessert with the full-on cacao flavor?

10 Great Benefits of Dark Chocolate

1. It Has Antioxidant Properties

Antioxidants protect your body’s cells from heart disease, cancer, and other diseases. That’s because they balance out the damaging effects of free radicals.

Cocoa beans contain flavanols. These are antioxidants, which reduce the damage free radicals cause to the body’s cells.

Although scientific studies are not particularly clear whether eating chocolate reduces the risk of getting certain cancers, they show that flavanols support the heart’s work.

Since these antioxidants are found in cocoa beans, it means you should eat chocolate with a high percentage of cocoa in its ingredient list. Dark chocolate that is.
