Achilles was willing to sacrifice his life for the sake of his pride because he did not listen to the advice of others and protect his achilles heel, the only place where someone could kill him. Achilles couldn't be killed except if you were to shoot an arrow into his heel, so by not protecting his heel, Achilles pride got in the way which lead to his death. He ended up getting shot by a poisoned arrow in his heel and died. Achilles was willing to sacrifice his life for the sake of pride. He sacrificed something huge for something so small.
Hope this helps you.
Hello. Unfortunately you did not comment on the article to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.
To answer this question, you must first read the article to which the question refers. Then you need to identify which element caused the students to think that there would be no prom, that is, you need to identify for what reason, there would be a possibility that this ball would not happen. That reason was what provoked the students' thinking and is the answer to your question. For example: The city may have gone through a natural disaster, the graduation class suffered a huge loss, there was not enough money to organize the ball, among others.
We can deduce here that the line from the passage that best supports the idea that money corrupts government is: "[Men] honor and look up to the rich man, and make a ruler of him."
<h3>What is a main idea?</h3>
Main idea actually refers to the central lesson or important message that an excerpt, passage, a line or a story is carrying. It refers to the message that the author wishes to pass across to the audience.
We see here that the passage that completes the question is:
The accumulation of gold in the treasury of private individuals is the ruin of timocracy [a state where only property owners can participate in government]; they invent illegal modes of expenditure; for what do they or their wives care about the law? . . . . And then one, seeing another grow rich, seeks to rival him, and thus the great mass of the citizens become lovers of money. . . . And so at last, instead of loving contention and glory, men become lovers of trade and money; they honor and look up to the rich man, and make a ruler of him, and dishonor the poor man.
Thus, the line that best supports the idea that that money corrupts government is "[Men] honor and look up to the rich man, and make a ruler of him."
