Answer:
An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth."
This phrase, along with the idea of written laws, goes back to ancient Mesopotamian culture that prospered long before the Bible was written or the civilizations of the Greeks or Romans flowered.
"An eye for an eye ..." is a paraphrase of Hammurabi's Code, a collection of 282 laws inscribed on an upright stone pillar. The code was found by French archaeologists in 1901 while excavating the ancient city of Susa, which is in modern-day Iran.
Hammurabi is the best known and most celebrated of all Mesopotamian kings. He ruled the Babylonian Empire from 1792-50 B.C.E. Although he was concerned with keeping order in his kingdom, this was not his only reason for compiling the list of laws. When he began ruling the city-state of Babylon, he had control of no more than 50 square miles of territory. As he conquered other city-states and his empire grew, he saw the need to unify the various groups he controlled.
Magna Carta limited the power of the King in that he could not establish new taxes without an approval of the parliament: the opposite of option 1)
The correct option is the last one: <span>the right of free men to be tried and sentenced by a jury of their equals
. This was the other provision of Magna Carta. </span>
This should not be difficult for you! I am sure you can do it!
Just write a piece of fiction. Imagine yourself living a boring life, on the farm, having to take your flock of sheep out to chew some green grass. Think about all the other jobs you could be doing as a farmer. Growing plants, living in open lands, the freedom you can experience, and how fulfilling that life would be. A quiet life, away from all the troubles.
Hope I've given you some ideas!
