The correct answer for the first question: The lama is looking for "The River of the Arrow" because would be option 1. "He thinks he will be purified spiritually when he finds it". This is showed in the excerpt when the lama says "By it one attains freedom from the Wheel of things", meaning he wants to be free of his sins and thinks the river is going to help him achieve it. He does not give a reference as to god being the reason he wants to find the river therefore options 2,3 and 4 are incorrect.
The correct answer for the second question: The excerpt shows that would be option 3. "Kim is eager to show the lama he does not know where the river is located". This is shown in the excerpt when he repeatedly says that he does not know the location, for example " If I knew, think you I would not cry it aloud?". Option 1, 2 and 4 are incorrect because Kim does not appear under the lama's spell, he does listen to him, and has not expressed an interest in the river's powers.
Answer: long-term governments should not be changed lightly, letter "C".
Explanation: people tend to fear the unknown, and changing means stepping into the unknown. When it comes to government it is even important maintaining a certain <em>status quo</em>, because every nation must have a long-term plan.
A very good example of this is Dom Dinis, king of Portugal in 1279. He ordered his people to plant many trees, foreseeing that Portugal was going to rule the seas. He wasn't alive when the great navigations of his kingdom happened, but the trees he ordered to plant were put to very good use when the ships were built. <u>That is what a long-term plan is, and that can not happen if governments and rules are changed constantly.</u>
However, the text says to not tolerate absolute despotism, so there will be times when we need to act, and these times are when a government does not plan. When there are no plans, our future is at stake.
Therefore, it is important not to change governments for any meanness, meaningless or pesky reason; this is a very important decision and it must happen when absolutely necessary.
