Answer:

Crito was there to try to persuade Socrates to escape from the prison where he is awaiting execution.

Explanation:

Socrates was accused of "corrupting the young" and "impiety" by the people of Athens and kept imprisoned awaiting execution by Hemlock poisoning. One of his friends, Crito, a rich wealthy Athenian visits him the day before he was to be killed. He had already bribed the guards and even made ready a boat for his escape to another town. But Socrates refused, saying that even though his charge wasn't right, he doesn't have to pay back evil for evil, in his case wrong for wrong. "Two wrongs doesn't make a right". Injustice should not be answered with injustice. So, he'll happily accept the verdict of the people of Athens and be executed.

Your friend Hugh asks you to outline the steps involved with the writing process. Which of the following options would you state
Leviafan [203]
<span>The correct answer is B. Writing is a process, meaning there are several steps involved. Before you start writing, it's better to plan it out, first with brainstorming and then with an outline, in order to know ahead of time what you're going to talk about. If you don't plan, you could run the risk of writing your paper in a stream-of-conscious manner, which means you'd be writing whatever comes to mind at the time. This could lead to disorganization and confusion. After planning, you will write your first draft, then you will want to edit it for any mistakes, and finally you will write your final draft. </span>

If you see a baby bird in the wild who is hopping on the ground, you should always pick it up and try to find its nest.
Flauer [41]

Answer:

I would say F, because that baby bird could have a disease so unless I had gloves, I wouldn't touch it because it could also anger the mother that you picked up her child.
