Answer:
YES
Explanation: Its important
I saw the test and all of the problems on it looked extremely dificalt.
Okay, let's break it down:
Nothing in the excerpt suggests he's famous (even if it looks like he does good deeds), so that answer is out. Nothing suggests he's a celebrity (wanting privacy or not), so that answer is gone too.
The passports suggest he leaves home. It alludes to him being on several different missions - enough to train someone else, but that doesn't mean he's not home often; his missions could be a few times per year for all we know. That said, this could be the answer if there's additional info we don't have on previous pages.
I think the best answer is he's an eccentric man, which means sort of strange or unconventional. The behavior he exhibits is excitement, then caution, then satisfaction. The whole story that is shown is slightly strange and unconventional: people don't normally meet with cash, supplies, and passports coupled with paranoia or constantly changing emotions. The reader doesn't really know what's going on.
The only thing that may change this answer is if there's critical information on the previous page(s) that we can't see (the content before it says "with danger").
Hope this helps!
This question is missing the options. I have found the complete question online. Since the excerpt is the same, I will omit it:
Which conclusion does this excerpt best support?
a Decius will entertain Caesar with stories to keep him home.
b Just as Cassius fears, Caesar will not come to the Capitol.
c The bad weather will make Caesar decide to stay at home.
d Decius strongly believes that he can get Caesar to go to the Capitol.
Answer:
The conclusion best supported by the excerpt is:
d. Decius strongly believes that he can get Caesar to go to the Capitol.
Explanation:
Decius is telling Cassius to not worry about Caesar not coming to the Capitol. Decius is confident that he can change Caesar's mind. He clearly has a way with words, being able to deceive and persuade. He gives an interesting example, saying that he flatters Caesar by telling him that he (Caesar) hates flatterers. He knows what Caesar likes to hear, so it is easy for him to convince him to do something.
"Julius Caesar" is a play by William Shakespeare based on the story of the Roman emperor. Caesar is betrayed and killed by his friends.
