1 answer:

8 0

The correct answer is A. Jim must drive to the North to study the northern lights. Here, the word North is supposed to be capitalized because it is a cardinal direction, and the word northern doesn't have to be capitalized because it is an adjective denoting the word lights. In B, the word German has to be capitalized. In C, McKinley is also supposed to be capitalized because it is the name of a mountain. In D, the word State doesn't have to be capitalized because it is a common noun, not a name.

Which set of words is the most negative in terms of connotative meaning? A.small: thin B.small: petite C.small; little D.small;

maxonik [38]

I would say D. because of how scrawny is a negative word.

An example:
Skinny, thin, and slender. These three words all mean having less weight on one's body than what might be considered average. But the connotations differ since the suggested meanings of skinny and thin are often more negative than slender, with skinny potentially the most negative of the three.

It is the same for scrawny, thin, petite, and little.

Which type of evidence does Machiavelli use in the story of Dido to show that a ruler should be cruel in certain circumstances?

castortr0y [4]

Evidence that the author uses to show the cruelty of a ruler can be inferred from the following context of the story:

''And of all princes, it is impossible for the new prince to avoid the imputation of cruelty, owing to new states being full of dangers. Hence Virgil, through the mouth of Dido, excuses the inhumanity of her reign owing to its being new, saying:

"Res dura, et regni novitas me talia cogunt

Moliri, et late fines custode tueri."(*)

Option C is the correct answer.

<h3>What is the evidence?</h3>

Evidence is something that supports the claims being raised by the accused party over the defending party.

The evidence from the passage where the author says that it is impossible for the new kings to ignore the cruelty when there is danger from the new states. This leads to the inhumanity being excused by Virgil in her ruling.

Therefore, the explanation given in part C is the evidence that the author uses to show the cruelty of the new kings.
