Read the passage from act 2, scene 1, of the tragedy of julius caesar. [brutus.] and to speak truth of caesar, i have not known when his affections swayed more than his reason. but 'tis a common proof that lowliness is young ambition’s ladder, whereto the climber-upward turns his face; but when he once attains the upmost round, he then unto the ladder turns his back, looks in the clouds, scorning the base degrees by which he did ascend. so caesar may. then lest he may, prevent. and since the quarrel will bear no colour for the thing he is, fashion it thus: that what he is, augmented, would run to these and these extremities; and therefore think him as a serpent’s egg which, hatched, would as his kind grow mischievous, and kill him in the shell. which piece of evidence best supports the theme that power can corrupt people? "lowliness is young ambition's ladder, / whereto the climber-upward turns his face" "scorning the base degrees / by which he did ascend" "i have not known when his affections swayed / more than his reason" "the quarrel / will bear no colour for the thing he is"

Select the correct text in the passage. in richard connell's short story "the most dangerous game," zaroffs aristocratic appearance and dignified manners mask his sinister, animalistic nature. which line from the excerpt best provides a glimpse into his true nature? rainsford's first impression was that the man was singularly handsome; his second was that there was an original, almost bizarre quality about the general's face. he was a tall man past middle age, for his hair was a vivid white; but his thick eyebrows and pointed military mustache were as black as the night from which rainsford had come. his eyes, too, were black and very bright. he had high cheekbones, a sharpcut nose, a spare, dark face-the face of a man used to giving orders, the face of an aristocrat. turning to the giant in uniform, the general made a sign. the giant put away his pistol, saluted, withdrew. "ivan is an incredibly strong fellow," remarked the general, "but he has the misfortune to be deaf and dumb. a simple fellow, but, i'm afraid, like all his race, a bit of a savage." "is he russian? " "he is a cossack," said the general, and his smile showed red lips and pointed teeth. "so am i." half apologetically general zaroff said, "we do our best to preserve the amenities of civilization here. forgive any lapses. we are well off the beaten track, you know." laughter shook the general. "how extraordinarily droll you are! " he said. "one does not expect nowadays to find a young man of the educated class, even in america, with such a naive, and, if i may say so, mid-victorian point of view. it's like finding a snuffbox in a limousine. ah, well, doubtless you
