I have brainly! in the country of Zouman, in Persia, there lived a Greek king. This king was a leper, and all his doctors had be

en unable to cure him, when a very clever physician came to his court.
He was very learned in all languages, and knew a great deal about herbs and medicines.
As soon as he was told of the king's illness he put on his best robe and presented himself before the king. "Sire," said he, "I know that no physician has been able to cure your majesty, but if you will follow my instructions, I will promise to cure you without any medicines or outward application."
The king listened to this proposal.
"If you are clever enough to do this," he said, "I promise to make you and your descendants rich for ever."

Hello!

I believe your answers are A and D.

I know it is A) because in 3rd sentence in the story is says: "He was very learned in all languages, and knew a great deal about herbs and medicines."

I know it is D) because in the second line in the story it says: " This king was a leper, and all his doctors had been unable to cure him, when a very clever physician came to his court."

I hope it helps!

Hello. You did not enter the text 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.

A textual evidence is information presented in the text that justifies an argument, showing the reason why that argument is being made and proving that it is correct. In this case, to answer your question, it will be necessary to read the entire text and identify the sentence where the author shows why he believes that students at the Bob Bondurant School of High Performance Driving drive better. This evidence can be examples of how these students have a high number of passing tests, a low rate of failing students, a low rate of fined students, among others.

madam [21]

Answer and Explanation:

1. In short, the texts claim that people overcome adversity with resilience. However, resilience is difficult to understand. The texts show how the word "resilience" has become fashionable in recent years, but few people really know them, because very few people needed it.

2. Resilience allows people to face reality, realize that they cannot change it, but have positivity. Positivity is very difficult to establish in a time of adversity, but it must be encouraged, as it shows that this moment will pass and that it is necessary to be strong to pass it.
