Which line from “Cruel Tribute” best supports the idea that the elders help to advance the plot?

English

I believe the answer is: “It is better that a few should perish than that the whole city should be destroyed,”


Pay attention to this line:

"<em>what have we done that you should wish thus to destroy us from the earth?"</em>

At this point, we can infer that the King hasn't fully made up his mind on whether he should destroy them or not.


When the elders reply with this line:

<em>“It is better that a few should perish than that the whole city should be destroyed,” </em>

The elders basically advance the plot by convincing the king that the act of destroying some of His people is correct.

The answer is “It is better that a few should perish than that the whole city should be destroyed,” they said. They are already implying their support for the plot by saying this. The fact that they were letting a few people perish shows that they are endorsing such an idea.

Literature can be shaped by its historical context. What is
Ira Lisetskai [31]

The correct answer is A. The political, ethical and social influences that characterize a  particular time and place.

Explanation:

In literary works such as novels, stories, or poems, the historical context includes factors such as the political, economic, ethical, and social situations that influenced the literary work. Additionally, these factors are related to the general context and situation of a specific geographical location during a specific time. For example, in the case of the famous book "Tom Sawyer" by Mark Twain, this is set in Missouri during the 1840s, and factors such as politics, society, and economy, as well as the place and time are the historical context.
