The conflict shows that Balboa is arrogant and is satisfied with the innocence of others.

Based on your question, we can assume that you are referring to the novel "Balboa" written by Sabina Murray.

By reading this novel, we can see that:

  • The novel portrays the exploration of Spanish Vasco Balboa, in America.
  • Upon arriving in America, Balboa shows himself to be an arrogant, presumptuous, and power-hungry man.
  • He takes advantage of the innocence of the natives and acts like a god, causing the exploration of the natives and even their death, in search of riches.
  • Realizing this, a Spanish monk incriminates Balboa.
  • The monk claims that he acts wrongly and an argument is established between the two.

The monk curses Balboa for the behavior he promotes and Balboa complains and claims that the monk has no authority against him as he is superior.

This positioning of Balboa shows how arrogant, pretentious, presumptuous, and haughty he is.

Which statement is an example of the question?

"Begging the question" means that we assume that a claim that has been made is the actual truth.  But in order for this to be the case, one must accept the claim to be true in order for it to be true.  Therefore, as you read through each of the choices, which one is a statement given based true that could be perceived as the truth?  'A' can be proven with data.  'B' is a statement of opinion given by the person speaking, which doesn't qualify here.  'D' isn't a proven truth, again, because it is just one's opinion about a period.  'C' on the other hand, could beg the question because 'bleed-heart liberals' usually side with no death penalty.  While this is an over-generalization, this could be a truth as one could perceive it as true.
