Answer: The answer is:

<u><em>I never saw a clearer instance of the opposite impressions that different customs make on people than I observed in the ambassadors of the Anemolians, who came to Amaurot when I was there. </em></u>

Explanation: The whole part is this, and the anecdote is the one in the answer.

The folly of men has enhanced the value of gold and silver because of their scarcity; whereas, on the contrary, it is their opinion that Nature, as an indulgent parent, has freely given us all the best things in great abundance . . .

It is certain that all things appear incredible to us in proportion as they differ from known customs; but one who can judge aright will not wonder to find that, since their constitution differs so much from ours, their value of gold and silver should be measured by a very different standard . . .

I never saw a clearer instance of the opposite impressions that different customs make on people than I observed in the ambassadors of the Anemolians, who came to Amaurot when I was there.

But they much more admire and detest the folly of those who, when they see a rich man, though they neither owe him anything, nor are in any sort dependent on his bounty . . .

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Greek and Roman are bedrock of the classical culture of Western civilization.

From Greece we inherited a political system and governing model called democracy which flourished in Athens many centuries before our era. The great Greek philosophers Socrates, Plato and Aristotle left us their thinking and philosophy that are the first major works on society and politics, ethics, morality, government. Greek mythology, adopted by the Romans, provided stories and enduring symbols in Western cultures, as well as magnificent inspiration for some of the best Western art and literature. Greek comedy and tragedy are the first major heights of world theater, and Homer gave us the Iliad and the Odyssey. Greek and Roman architecture still serve as models for many of our modern buildings. Thanks to Herodotus, the first world historian, we know about the Medic Wars and the conquests of Alexander the Great.

Rome inherited us also great thinkers, writers, speakers, the art of oratory. From Roman governing system, we have inherited an institution that still exists today in modern democracies: the Senate. Latin , the Roman people´s language, was adopted as the official language of the Catholic Church and of scholars for many centuries; it is the mother of contemporary Romanic languages such as French, Italian and Spanish.

Which scientist’s notebooks are still too radioactive to handle?
gavmur [86]
<h2>Answer: Marie Curie </h2>

Marie Curie's notebooks, as well as all of her belongings, including her clothes, were contaminated with ionizing radiation. In fact, those of her husband also, because this couple of scientists discovered the radioactivity of several elements, helping the advance of science, but <u>did not know about the consequences of dealing with these materials without adequate protection. </u>

It should be noted that Curie's notes are stored in the basements of the National Library of France, stored in thick lead boxes and those who wish to access these documents must follow the appropriate protocol to treat radioactive material, wear appropriate clothing and sign a responsibility  agreement before allowing them to review the documents.
