In this passage from chapter 22 of "The Prince", by Machiavelli, the statement that best summarizes the central idea of this excerpt is <em>It is necessary to choose trustworthy servants</em>. Machiavelli tells the Prince that the first impression about him will be given by his servants and therefore it is important to choose trustworthy servants, so people will form a good opinion of him.

The correct answer is:

One must know the process of hiring servants.

In the excerpt, especially here:

<em> "when you see the servant thinking more of his own interests than of yours, and seeking inwardly his own profit in everything, such a man will never make a good servant, nor will you ever be able to trust him; because he who has the state of another in his hands ought never to think of himself, but always of his prince, and never pay any attention to matters in which the prince is not concerned."</em>

They describe how to analyze a servant, how to know when they are going to priorize you, and if the servant does not checks for all of this characteristics is better not to hire him.

What fear influenced many of Kafka's works, including The Metamorphosis?
fenix001 [56]

The correct answer to this question is:

“That people found him weak and physically inadequate”

In the story, the protagonist Gegore Samsa actually depicts Kafka himself. Kafka's father always used to treat him as if he were garbage (just like Gegore’s father) to the point of making Franz feels like a bug. This made him feel so weak that there is nothing he can do to stop the abuses done to him.

umka2103 [35]
I<span>t provides the example of sweating sickness.

This example shows the reader that there was a disease and cause of death in Elizabethan England that does not still exist to our knowledge today. Most people probably had never heard of 'sweating sickness', so when it's presented in the passage it is effective in showing that Elizabethan ailments were different than modern ones. </span>

Hope this helps!
