Answer:

It is evident that the Greeks valued loyalty and courage. In The Iliad, Hector explains that he cannot face his family and friends if he does not march bravely into battle. The Greeks also valued honesty and hard work. For example, in two fables, "The Hare and the Tortoise" and "The Ant and the Grasshopper," the moral is that hard work leads to success.

Answer: They valued courage, a good work ethic, wisdom, humility, strength, trustworthiness and loyalty.

Explanation: I like Megan22354's answer but I feel like more could be added to it.

In the fable <u>The ant and the grasshopper</u><u>,</u> the ants were hard at work utilizing the harvesting season to the best of their ability to ensure that they were prepared for the winter. The grasshopper how ever was more concerned about the present. He saw that he had enough resources to suit his needs at the current time. The ants survived the winter with ease because of there previous hard work. The grasshopper was not so lucky.

The moral of that story is to<u> work hard</u> in the present so you can enjoy the future.

In the fable <u>The Hare and the Tortoise</u><u>,</u> a hare challenged anyone to race him because he was very sure of his abilities. The tortoise humbly accepted his challenge and received some mochary from the hare and the other animals. He responded to the hare by saying, "Keep your boasting till you’ve beaten. Shall we race?" and the hare accepted his response.  Once they began racing the hare was far ahead of the tortoise and to show how much better he was, he laid down to take a nap. When the hare awoke he found the tortoise was about to cross the finish line and that he could not make up the distance. The tortoise won the race and humbly said, "Plodding wins the race.” which basically means, "slow and steady wins the race."

The moral of this story: consistent work and humility will see you through until you get where you are going and beyond.

In the fable <u>The Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing</u><u>,</u> A sly wolf found a sheep skin that had been cast aside by the shepherds.  He put it over himself as a disguise to get into the flock. The Lamb that belonged to the sheep, whose skin the Wolf was wearing, began to follow the Wolf in the Sheep’s clothing. He led the lamb away and ATE HER.

The moral of this story is make sure you know who you are putting your trust in or you may face severe consequences.

Do you think having only two parties in power in the US is good or bad for our country? Why?​
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

The goal of voting is to elect representatives by the voice of the people. However when only two parties are allowed to run, American choices are restricted by limited views and only given two choices. This restriction seems to be effective, but is simple not accomplishing the goal of electing the representatives the people actually want. <u>This argument says that a 2 parties system is bad </u>

Here is another argument

While the constitution does not provide language that explicitly endorses a two party system, a great deal of its laws perpetuate their existence like the electoral college and plurality voting. The electoral college makes it virtually impossible for a third party candidate to win any given office by discouraging votes in individual states amongst other things. Likewise, plurality voting, which guarantees the candidate with the majority of votes wins, generally favors two opposing sides as time goes by. This is only made stronger by the fact that The majority of Americans seem to lean towards the right or left, with a small percentage staying in between. As long as these systems are in place, a two party system will naturally prevail. <u>This argument says that the 2 parties system is good.</u>    

Explanation:

It's just how you look at really if you think its bad then your think its bad same goes for the person who says its good. It's just an opinion. But each side will have supporting facts and details.
