Part A was which statement best states the claim, or main point, that Bacon builds upon in this passage?

A. Holding high office causes people to do evil.

B. Holding high office is one of the noblest aspirations.

C. Holding high office has costs as great as any of the benefits.

D. Holding high office helps people serve others in many ways.

Answer:

C. Holding high office has costs as great as any of the benefits.

Explanation:

The statement that best states the claim that Bacon made in the passage is the third statement because it shows that holding high office comes at a great cost and that highly placed powerful people are really servants, both to the state, fame, or business which takes away a degree of their freedom.

Therefore, the correct answer is C. Holding high office has costs as great as any of the benefits.

What was Melinda Sordino hopes/goals
kifflom [539]

Answer:

Melinda is the young star of Speak. Since she's also the narrator, everything we learn about the other characters is filtered through her. Melinda is very perceptive and bright, but her vision is sometimes clouded by her suffering. She's only fourteen-years-old, and she's dealing with one of the worst things that can happen to a person: rap-e. High school senior Andy Evans ra-pes Melinda at the end-of-summer party just before Melinda starts 9th grade. She calls the cops to report the rap-e, but leaves before they show up. The party is busted and everybody thinks Melinda got them in trouble on purpose.

The novel begins on Melinda's first day in high school. Nobody at school will talk to Melinda, including Rachel Bruin, who's been her best friend forever. Worse, just about everyone bullies her. She wants to explain why she called the cops but she can't find the words.

Melinda doesn't stop talking altogether, but says only what seems absolutely necessary. As her secret weighs on her more and more, she talks less and less. Eventually she decides that talking is necessary to protect others from Andy and to find personal relief. Speak follows Melinda through her first year of high school, from the depths of her isolation to the beginnings of her renewal.
