Read the excerpt from "Persues."

Each guest, as was customary, brought a gift for the bride-to-be, except Perseus alone. He had nothing he could give. He was young and proud and keenly mortified. He stood up before them all and did exactly what the King had hoped he would do, declared that he would give him a present better than any there. He would go off and kill Medusa and bring back her head as his gift. Nothing could have suited the King better. No one in his senses would have made such a proposal. Medusa was one of the Gorgons.

Which statement best describes a characteristic of a Greek hero displayed by Perseus?

He is greatly admired for his beauty and youth.
He makes a promise to a king that he cannot keep.
He has too much pride and confidence in his abilities.
He is poor and alone with nothing to offer as a gift.

Answer:

He has too much pride and confidence in his abilities.

Explanation:

Perseus as described in the excerpt was young, confident and proud being. The fact that he had nothing material to offer before the king but openly promised to bring be for the king Medusa's head was something no one but only a confident, and proud hero would pledge to deliver. Therefore, from the options given,

Option A is incorrect as the passage didn't talk about the beauty of the young man.

Though it was stated that he had nothing to give, but been poor and alone does not describe an heroic behavior.

Similarly, an unkept promise isn't an heroic quality.

Therefore, his pride and confidence are the heroic qualities Perseus demonstrated.

Answer:

My guy has to much pride in his abilities

Read this excerpt from "The Girl Who Silenced the World for Five Minutes.”

I'm only a child, yet I know if all the money spent on war was spent on ending poverty and finding environmental answers, what a wonderful place this earth would be!

Based on this excerpt, Suzuki most likely believes that

Whenever those states which have been acquired as stated have been accustomed to live under their own laws and in freedom, there are three courses for those who wish to hold them: the first is to ruin them, the next is to reside there in person, the third is to permit them to live under their own laws, drawing a tribute, and establishing within it an oligarchy which will keep it friendly to you. Because such a government, being created by the prince, knows that it cannot stand without his friendship and interest, and does its utmost to support him; and therefore he who would keep a city accustomed to freedom will hold it more easily by the means of its own citizens than in any other way.
