Answer 1

Answer:

Answer 2

Answer:

If Caesar were crowned, it may change his personality, and the power may cause him to become dangerous.

Explanation:

In this excerpt, Brutus believed that if Caesar was given the opportunity to rule, he would assume the personality of a snake. A snake is a poisonous animal that can do a lot of harm. Brutus therefore believes that if Caesar was crowned a King he might become poisonous like the snake and use his power to cause harm to others.

Instances of situations like this happen in real life where someone who was formerly humble becomes haughty and harmful to others when he assumes a position of authority.
