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!
<span>#1) How do Niemöller's words in "First they came for..." repeat the theme developed in "I Sit and Look Out" by Walt Whitman?
Answer: After carefully reading both of the excerpts that are presented above I believe that the words of Niemoller in “First they came for…” repeat the theme developed in “I Sit and Look Out” by Walt Whitman conveying his own view on how even the person who just remains silent while also seeing the injustice that is happening right in front of him can be the most cruel of all. He makes it clear when at the end of the poem-- “Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.”

Answer: The caliphs knew freedom of worship led to an overall stronger empire.
Freedom of worship has not been common in states of the past. However, whenever it has been implemented, it has led to stronger empires. An example is the Roman Empire. At its height, the Roman Empire controlled large areas of Europe, Africa and Asia. However, whenever they conquered a new territory, they allowed the people to continue to practice their traditional religion. The caliphs adopted a similar approach. Allowing other religions meant that the conquered population was happier, and that they rebelled less, contributing to the strength of the caliphate.
This question is incomplete. Its full version is:
On the afternoon of that eventful day, I stood on the porch, dumb, expectant. I guessed vaguely from my mother's signs and from the hurrying to and fro in the house that something unusual was about to happen, so I went to the door and waited on the steps. The afternoon sun penetrated the mass of honeysuckle that covered the porch and fell on my upturned face. My fingers lingered almost unconsciously on the familiar leaves and blossoms which had just come forth to greet the sweet southern spring. I did not know what the future held of marvel or surprise for me.
