Explanation:
Italian political writer, Niccolo Machiavelli's ideas on how political leaders should act isn't very admirable from my stance. Though we should have high expectations for political leaders, I disagree with his statements and think he is wrong. We should expect our political leaders to be virtuous as well as effective. I feel that we should be realistic when discussing politics like he states and that rulers should be filled with power and success, but those aren't the only two traits they should uphold. Contradictory to what Machiavelli thinks, I think both virtue and effectiveness are both important skills a leader needs to have, and I think that rulers should be more than just concerned with power and triumph.
Observation about life
A story's theme is the author's main idea or message. This is usually an observation about life. Many times in young adult fiction these themes revolve around topics such as coming of age, death, belonging, and relationships. Romeo and Juliet has many great themes about how impulsivity can lead to one's death or how a family feud can take away the things that families value most. Moral statements are usually reserved for fables. General subject matter is not a theme but instead a topic. A point of view on a difficult topic is a person's perspective.
The direct object recieves the action of the verb (ask who or what), so in #12 it would be teammate. In #13 ball receives the action.
