The author mentions society's ability to "execute its own mandates" primarily to show that the citizens of a society must act on free will unless they harm others. It is then the government should interfere to provide protection to the society.

Explanation:

Adapted from 'On Liberty' by John Stuart Mill

John Stuart Mill stated: "Society can and does execute its own mandates; and if it issues wrong mandates instead of right, or any mandates at all in things with which it ought not to meddle, it practices a social tyranny more formidable than many kinds of political oppression, since, though not usually upheld by such extreme penalties, it leaves fewer means of escape, penetrating much more deeply into the details of life, and enslaving the soul itself."

The author mentions society's ability to "execute its own mandates" primarily to show that the citizens of a society must act on free will unless they harm others. It is then the government should interfere to provide protection to the society.

krok68 [10]

Answer:

D. All men, regardless of their backgrounds, could be successful in America.

Explanation:

This question is incomplete. According to a different source, the complete question is the following:

Which statement best reflects the central idea of "An Excerpt from Theodore Roosevelt: An Intimate Biography"?

A. Only men born into educated families could be successful in America.

B. Only men with backgrounds similar to Lincoln's background could be successful in America,

C. Only men with backgrounds similar to Roosevelt's background could be successful in America,

D. All men, regardless of their backgrounds, could be successful in America.

In the text  “An excerpt from Theodore Roosevelt: An intimate biography,” we learn about Theodore Roosevelt. Theodore Roosevelt was the 26th President  of the United States. However, he is also remembered for various other reasons, such as his interests in science (particularly conservation, naturalism, biology, zoology and taxidermy) and his strong personality.

In the text, we learn that Roosevelt was able to achieve this life not because of privilege, but due to his hard work. He was a sickly child who suffered from poor health and asthma. Moreover, he was homeschooled in an irregular way. Nevertheless, his dedication, intelligence and hard work allowed him to succeed. This story indicates, according to the text, that all men could be successful in America, regardless of their background or upbringing.

Use your editing skills to select the best sentence: Select one: a. Vampires are creatures that have a bad reputation. b. Vampir
gavmur [86]

Answer:

<em>d. Vampires can be nice enough, they just need to eat like the rest of us.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

Option a does not give a clear indication of why vampires have a bad reputation. The word reputation should be associated with the reason.

Option b does associates the reason for the reputation, but the part 'blood is thought to be sucked by them' is not correct grammatically.

option c shows the presence of tautology, where horribly and awfully are used before bad.

option d is the only option that shows the proper use of grammar.
