I would always advise my friend that it is necessary to study all subjects in depth and perform well in the examinations to enable him to carry out higher studies in order to have a stable working career. But, at the same time, I'd advise him that merely obtaining good marks is not the barometer of gaining knowledge. Attaining knowledge on diverse things is most important for a human person.
My advice to my friend would be acquiring knowledge by reading books on diverse subjects, learning about various matters by watching television channels like National Geographic, History Channel, Travel & Living and so on. But, first of all, he should know most things about his own country. With the advent of the internet and satellite television, gathering knowledge has become easy; he should make use of these facilities.
Even for passing examinations, he must read and understand the various subjects and topics rather than learn by rote, simply memorising without understanding is not good. <span><span>Comments </span> <span>Report</span></span>
The answer is A) rhetoric
A good Machiavellian leader has 5 specific traits:
1. being feared- in his time it was much better for a leader to be feared, because if the people feared you, they would be less inclined to revolt, as opposed to them loving you.
2. support of the people- you need the support of the people, because without the people supporting your decisions no actions can be made.
3. virtue-show good virtues in public, but do what has to be done to succeed in the privacy of your fortress, so basically lie to the people if necessary.
4. use your own arms- don't be dependent on mercenaries, because your own people are more likely to die for you
5. intelligence- without that you cannot hope to gain the support of your people
