Why would an emperor have a betraying general killed on the polo playing field?

1.to make peace
2.to keep the general from following through with his plans
3.to make it look like an accident
4.to warn others, who might be following the general, not to do so

Answers

Answer 1
I think it might be 4 but I’m not sure
Answer 2

Answer:

Its D

Explanation:

I just did the test and The Chinese emperor who knew of the general's plans to overthrow his government deliberately invited the general to play in a polo match. The emperor then had his loyal players knock the general off his horse and beat him repeatedly around the head and chest area with their polo sticks. This was the emperor's way of warning other traitors not to follow the general's lead. By doing so would lead to their untimely death as well. If it was to look like an accident the repeated beating would not have been possible. A less public killing would only have gotten rid of the general and his plans. Therefore, this very public death was used as a warning to others.

Question 7 of 10

Read this excerpt from a campaign speech:

My opponent in this race for the governor's office claims

that I am corrupt. He dares to suggest that I accepted

favors from business owners in exchange for putting them

in contact with state legislators who lowered business

taxes. This is an absurd claim. Moreover, I find it ironic that

he, of all people, wants to point fingers and talk about

corruption. Isn't it interesting that he accepts so many

campaign donations from the oil industry and is single-

handedly responsible for sponsoring state laws that ease

environmental regulations? Dear friends, remember on

Election Day who the real honest politician is in this race,

It's certainly not the man on the other side of the aisle

trying to distract us from his own bad character.

Which statement best describes the speaker's point of view?

Answers

Incomplete question: Here are the options:

A. Citizens are too concerned about corruption in politics

B.The speaker's opponent is a decent person who has gotten in over his head.

D. Voters should be concerned about the character of the speaker's opponent

Answer:

D. Voters should be concerned about the character of the speaker's opponent

Explanation:

From the excerpt of the campaign speech, the speaker who is not named directs the thoughts of his listeners to what he calls, the "bad character" of his opponent.

He makes his point of view more evident when he said,

"Dear friends, remember on  Election Day who the real honest politician is in this race,  It's certainly not the man on the other side of the aisle  trying to distract us from his own bad character."

As the war’s significant battles went on, who do you think had the advantage – North or South? In at least three sentences explain why.

Answers

Answer: I think the South did not have the right to leave a united Union, and declare war on their former country. They turned into enemies, but before they were just fine. The South should have just give up the slaves.

As the wars went on, I think the North had the advantage due to their tactics. They split their armies and bombarded two different areas at a time. The North also set up camps in forests, and in some cases, it was hard for the South to find.
