They detest war as a very brutal thing, and which, to the reproach of human nature, is more practised by men than by any sort of

beasts. They, in opposition to the sentiments of almost all other nations, think that there is nothing more inglorious than that glory that is gained by war; and therefore, though they accustom themselves daily to military exercises and the discipline of war, in which not only their men, but their women likewise, are trained up, that, in cases of necessity, they may not be quite useless, yet they do not rashly engage in war, unless it be either to defend themselves or their friends from any unjust aggressors, or, out of good nature or in compassion, assist an oppressed nation in shaking off the yoke of tyranny.

The correct answer is option A.

The central idea in the passage is clearly expressed in the topic sentence, in which the narrator or author expresses that they detest war. The rest of the sentences give evidence and reasons to support the thesis of the topic sentence: they believe glory gained in war is inglorious, and they are trained in military exercises just in case they need to defend themselves or others.

At the time of its publication, a dictionary of the English language was unique because of its blank
Talja [164]

A dictionary of the English language was unique because of its  quotations. Since there were no true definitions of words in any of these dictionaries up to that point, it was the first English dictionary to employ quotations  to explain a word's meaning.

You may increase your vocabulary and reading and writing skills by using dictionaries. A English definition can be found by consulting a dictionary. A dictionary can be used to verify a word's spelling as well. Additionally, dictionaries may include details about a word's kind and provenance. By ensuring that you are using words correctly, a decent dictionary may help you comprehend your subject matter better, improve your communication, and improve your grades.
