An ascetic is a person who devotes his or her life to self-discipline. An ascetic does this by living an extremely simple life.

For example, an ascetic will deny him or herself normal pleasures of life. What most people cannot live without, like the Internet or television, the ascetic gives up easily. Ascetics believe that the mind and body need to change through control. They exercise a control of bodily actions, speech, and thoughts. Although some might view asceticism as negative, those who practice it find peace in it. In addition, having a control of one's senses gives a person satisfaction. Ascetics experience a greater peace of mind than the average people. 7 How does the organizational structure of the passage support the author's purpose? A. It gives facts and examples about the idea of an ascetic. B. It lists a historical development of the practices of ascetics. C. It gives arguments to persuade people to become an ascetic. D. It arranges facts about ascetics from least to most significant.

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

The reaction question is a personal thing. I would say: "I am surprised that Martha wants to be dishonest just because she finds her assignment difficult."

John conveys a positive message: he believes that Martha is smart enough to do her assignments without cheating.

Martha conveys a negative message: she wants to cheat on her assignments because she thinks they are difficult.

Tybalt calls Romeo a villain. Romeo refuses to fight him because he has just married Juliet in secret. In his place, Mercutio draws his sword and fights Tybalt. Mercutio is stabbed by Tybalt when Romeo places himself between them to stop the fight. Mercutio is badly wounded and dies.
