The words President Carter uses in this excerpt contribute to the power of his speech in the following way:
B. President Carter addresses the American nation with a great sense of urgency, and by doing so, he commands and demands the audience's attention.
When he mentions the <em>threat to American democracy</em>, he is transmitting a sense of emergency and he is urging the audience to listen. Moreover, he is directly addressing the American nation by stating <em>I want to speak to you...</em>
The correct answer is <em>false</em>. The amulet that Mrs. Chen hung on a gold chain under her blouse was for her to remember her past life in China.

Explanation:
I think that this is a very hard question to answer. I think that many kings, fictional or not, possess both the bad and good traits of being a king.
In regards to Macbeth, he certainly possessed the ambition many would wish for a king. He was brave, as noted by Duncan and the title of the Thane of Cawdor. He was protective, as noted by his murder of Banquo. Macbeth was even proud, as seen by his desire to keep the new title of Thane before taking the crown.
Unfortunately, many of the characteristics one would align with being a good king made Macbeth a bad king as well. Macbeth was too ambitious--as seen by his murdering Duncan. He was too protective--as seen by his inability to interpret the apparitions warnings in the correct way. Lastly, he was too proud--as seen by his refusal to leave the castle as Birnam Wood "moved" against him.
Like anything, one must always have control. Too much of anything normally turns out to be a bad thing. Therefore, depending upon one's individual views, Macbeth could be both a bad king or a good one.
