The answer is:

Machiavelli forces readers to carefully consider the meanings of the words merciful and mercy.

In the passage from "The Prince," the author Niccolò Machiavelli mentions the words mercy and merciful intending to make readers contemplate their meanings with special circumspection. Thus, <em>mercy </em>is compassion towards somebody one can hurt or punish, and <em>merciful </em>means benevolent. In that respect, Machiavelli suggests that an unsympathetic ruler can preserve power rather than a compassionate one.

Answer:

A). "We take off our hats..."

Explanation:

Repetition is elucidated as one of the most commonly employed literary devices that involves repetition of a similar words or phrases within an interval in order to clarify and highlight an idea to make it memorable.

Indian weddings are matchless in grandeur, glamour and luxury. They are matchless in wastage, extravagance and display of money
bezimeni [28]

Answer and Explanation:

Dear Diary

Today I read an article about how the coronavirus affected cultural habits in different countries and how it made people rethink whether these acts were really important and had real value in people's lives. One of the cultural habits cited in the article was Indian weddings.

Indian weddings are an important part of Indian culture and are characterized by large parties, with the presence of many people, an abundance of food and much exposure of wealth, refinement and prosperity. Many people claim that the prohibition of these marriages, due to the coronavirus, showed how wasteful they are and that they add nothing to anyone's life. I do not agree with that, because I believe that cultural customs are very important and that they must be realized, because they are part of who we are.

Of course, for security reasons, it is impossible to perform these weddings now. But we must not turn our back on our culture and the customs that show who we are. We must not let our culture die and these customs must be carried forward, whenever possible.

Beena.
