Answer:

D. The novel, a love story set in ancient Egypt, took me two weeks to finish.

Explanation:

An appositive phrase is characterized by a phrase, within a sentence, which aims to add extra information, explain and specify a term previously said. This type of sentence is separated from the rest of the sentence by commas and can be removed from the sentence without changing the message that must be conveyed.

Among the answer options shown in the question above, option "D" is that it correctly uses an appositive phrase. This sentence is described as "a love story set in ancient Egypt" that presents new information to the sentence, this separated by commas and explains the term "the novel".

There are, for example, the Spartans and the Romans. The Spartans held Athens and Thebes, establishing there an oligarchy: never
DerKrebs [107]

The correct answer is C. Observing what happened to the Spartans and the Romans shows that it is best to destroy a newly acquired state that is accustomed to freedom.

Explanation:

The text focuses on explaining the differences between the Spartans and the Romans when conquering new territories. The author explains the Romans destroyed and dismantled new territories, and were successful. On the opposite, the Spartans were not successful because they only established a government in new territories.

This implies, destroying new states is a better strategy than allowing freedom, this is reinforced by the idea "he who becomes master of a city accustomed to freedom and does not destroy it may expect to be destroyed by it" that shows the need to destroy or dismantle new states to control them. Thus, the main idea is that destruction is the best strategy to use with acquired states which is proven by comparing Spartans and Romans.
