Read the excerpt from chapter 8 of The Prince.
Vesna [10]

The correct answer is answer C ("The words with positive connotations soften the ones with negative connotations to create a serious, matter-of-fact tone").

The tone of this excerpt is remarkably pragmatic for speaking about such horrific matter. Machiavelli achieves this by never losing sight of his aim, which is to instruct efficiency. <u>He's very aware of the delicate nature of the subject matter</u>. Without omitting important details even though they may seem cruel or gruesome, he's able to keep a cold tone by neutralizing these negative connotations with positive language.

This effect is made more clear in the last paragraph:

"For <u>injuries</u> ought to be done all at one time, so that, <u>being tasted less,</u> <u>offend less</u>..." - Here he's talking about necessary punishment and mercy at the same time.

"Benefits ought to be given <u>little by little</u>, so that the <u>flavour may last longer</u>..." - Machiavelli is talking about manipulation and using the word flavour which has a positive connotation that softens the cruel nature of the act.


Hope this helps!

Choose the piece of text evidence from "The
ipn [44]

The correct answer is "Between 1800 and 1850. London's population more than doubled" (page 18)

Explanation:

"The Great Stink" is a text that describes the social, economical, and political conditions in London in the 19th century, especially during the period known as the Great Stink during which there was a sanitary crisis.

In this context, the section "Between 1800 and 1850. London's population more than doubled" supports the statement "The 19th century was a time of rapid change in London" because this statement explains how the social conditions evolved during a short time due to a rapid increase in the population. Considering this rapid growth had a great impact on other factors such as politics, economy, and even health.
