Which answer choice describes the point of view in this passage from Mark Twain’s account of his visit to France?

We noticed that in the jewelry stores they had some things marked "gold" and some labeled "imitation." We wondered at this honesty and askedabout it. We were informed that since most people are not able to tell false gold from the genuine article, the government requires jewelers to have their gold work stamped officially according to its fineness and their imitation work also labeled as false. They told us the jewelers would not dare to violate this law, and that whatever a stranger bought in one of their stores might be depended upon as being strictly what it was said to be. What a wonderful land is France!

A. An American who is offended that the French sell imitation gold

B. An American who is impressed by the honesty of the French

C. An American who wishes he could go back home right away

Read the passage from chapter 14 of The Prince.

A prince ought to have no other aim or thought, nor select anything else for his study, than war and its rules and discipline; for this is the sole art that belongs to him who rules, and it is of such force that it not only upholds those who are born princes, but it often enables men to rise from a private station to that rank.

And, on the contrary, it is seen that when princes have thought more of ease than of arms they have lost their states. And the first cause of your losing it is to neglect this art; and what enables you to acquire a state is to be master of the art. Francesco Sforza, through being martial, from a private person became Duke of Milan; and the sons, through avoiding the hardships and troubles of arms, from dukes became private persons. For among other evils which being unarmed brings you, it causes you to be despised, and this is one of those ignominies against which a prince ought to guard himself, as is shown later on.

What type of evidence does Machiavelli use to support his claim that a prince should have no aim other than war and its rules and discipline?

Answers

Answer: 280 miles

The actual distance between the two cities will be represented by x. Based on the information given in the question, we can form an equation will be:

5/7 = 200/x

x = 1400/5

x = 280

Therefore, the actual distance is 280 miles.

C.E.R format

sentence 1= the claim in 1 sentence (restate the question to express your thoughts and your reasons for them)

sentence 2= clarify your claim (go into further detail over what you meant in sentence 1)

sentence 3= first piece of evidence (make sure you are not using an extremely long quote/they look bad)

sentence 4/5 = the sentences explaining how or why your evidence proves your point (use a transition to explain what exactly about this example is connecting to your claim. Don't announce - I believe/ Hello my name is/ In my opinion)

sentence 6 = evidence 2 (try to change up the type of evidence to give your response some variety. Meaning if you started with a quote then bring in some paraphrasing or try paraphrasing and quoting together.)

sentence 7/8 = the sentences explaining how or why your evidence proves your point (make sure at this point to start working in how this second example not only proves your point but how it connects with the previous example to further your point as well.)

Why would the Jamaican sports newsletter in which Maurice Ashley is quoted be considered a primary source?
It was produced after Maurice Ashley became a chess champion.

It reviews important chess tournaments in which Ashley took part.

It includes a direct interview with Ashley.

It was published relatively recently.

Answers

Answer:

It includes a direct interview with Ashley.

Explanation:

A primary source is a direct, first-hand account of an issue or an event, or any topic. It is primary because it involves no "middleman", no interpretation or representation of that information.

In the article "The Newest Board Sport", the direct quote of Maurice Ashley was included at the end. This can be taken as a primary source because it contains the exact words spoken by the man himself. So, this makes it original, without any revision or added words or interpretation.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.

C.A refrain is a regularly repeated line or group of lines.
D.An epic poem almost always features a refrain.

Answers

Answer: D. An epic poem almost always features a refrain.

Explanation:

A refrain is indeed like a chorus in a song because it usually repeats in a poem especially after every stanza which is much like a chorus in a song. Refrains are usually included in ballads such that they are repeated after each stanza as already mentioned. Based on the above, options A. B and C are true.

An epic poem on the other hand, rarely includes refrains. This is because such poems are more like stories that narrate the adventures of famous characters. Repeating lines would not advance the story so refrains are avoided.
