Answer:

E) as it is now

Explanation:

The word “retire” has a principal meaning of leaving or stopping one’s job at a particular age, but it also has a secondary meaning of withdrawing a unit of currency from circulation. Used in the context of a country discontinuing the penny, the word “retire” has a neutral and objective connotation and is therefore the most appropriate choice for the sentence.

An essay on persuading to listen to music while working
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

In recent years it’s become noticeable that students are using all different forms of music to help them while studying or doing homework.  When listening to music one may notice how that person may tap their foot or drum their fingers, even though they appear to be focused on the task in front of them.  The rhythm of the piece, whether it is fast or slow, causes the listener’s heartbeat to synch with it (How Music Affects Our Mood, 2014).  The question however is which music to listen to.  In some studies, test subjects show that the louder the music the more distracted the subjects became.

Explanation:

This is just a short idea of what your essay should be about, for plagiarism reasons I am not giving a full essay so I don't get reported.

Hope this helps!

Read this passage from chapter 5 of The Prince.
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

C. to persuade readers that a conquering prince must destroy a former republic if he hopes to hold it.

Explanation:

'The Prince' is a book written by political theorist Niccolo Machiavelli. In this book, Machiavelli outlines guidance for young princes on how to acquire a state and how to rule. He claims that if a prince need to use immoral means to acquire a state, he sould do it, and it will not be perceived as wrong.

In the given passage, from Chapter 5, the author is elucidating upon this same matter. He does so by giving a comparison between Spartan and Romans way of holding newly acquired state. By showing contrast between the two, he is asserting that the prince should destroy a former republic to hold the newly acquired state.

Therefore, option C is correct.
