Read this passage from chapter 5 of The Prince. There are, for example, the Spartans and the Romans. The Spartans held Athens an

d Thebes, establishing there an oligarchy: nevertheless they lost them. The Romans, in order to hold Capua, Carthage, and Numantia, dismantled them, and did not lose them. They wished to hold Greece as the Spartans held it, making it free and permitting its laws, and did not succeed. So to hold it they were compelled to dismantle many cities in the country, for in truth there is no safe way to retain them otherwise than by ruining them.

Answer:

The type of organization structure Machiavelli uses int he passage is: compare and contrast.

Explanation:

In the passage we are analyzing here, Machiavelli first establishes that he will talk about Spartans and Romans. That being done, he initially offers information only about the Spartans. Then, he moves on to offer information about the Romans, comparing their actions and decisions to those of the Spartans. This is a typical compare and contrast structure, more specifically a block structure. All information about one of the elements is offered. Then, all the information about the other elements is offered. The purpose is to find similarities or dissimilarities between them.

Mkey [24]

Answer:

Athanasius thought of the gold as an opportunity to help people whereas John fled from the scene as if he was being chased by a monster thinking that taking gold out of somewhere was a sin.

Explanation:

   Athanasius wanted to take the gold as he saw no sin in helping the neighbor population with it but everything John felt was fear as soon as he saw the gold.

   John was a man of simple ethics and lifestyle and didn't want any complications to his life.

   Athanasius was a man of his own doings and always liked to think otherwise. He believed the bag of gold was a gift from an angel.

   John believed in changing things for people by on's hard work and determination.

   Both the brothers varied with different perspectives on life.

What does the character Dr.Faustus suggest about the idea of the Renaissance Man???
sattari [20]

So, Dr. Faustus is an embodiment of curiosity gone wild. His blase attitude towards humanistic science is, however, some kind of a scientific decadence: he casts away philosophy and law, to embrace magic, as a relic of medieval obsession over mysticism. In this regard, he is a subversion of the Renaissance Man. He thinks he has already learned all there was to learn about this world, so now he yearns for another kind of knowledge - esoteric, otherworldly, knowledge that isn't exactly a knowledge because you don't have to study long and hard for it, you just have to sell your soul to Lucifer.

Answer:

The correct answers are:

marked - considerable

unseared - pure, uncorrupted

Explanation:

The most interesting feature of my history here was my learning to read and write, under somewhat marked (considerable) disadvantages.

Words like these, I observed, always troubled them; and I had no small satisfaction in wringing from the boys, occasionally, that fresh and bitter  condemnation of slavery, that springs from nature, unseared (pure, uncorrupted) and unperverted.

In his stories, Frederick Douglas tries to describe the cruelty of slavery and all the problems that the black people could face because of his/her skin color. In order to achieve that, he uses a strong and authentic vocabulary where some words can be replaced with other words that most closely match the denotation of the words.

In our excerpts, the word <em>marked</em> can be replaced with <em>considerable</em>, while the word <em>unseared</em> can be replaced with <em>pure</em> or <em>uncorrupted</em>.
