Read the paragraph from "1906 Marked the Dawn of the Scientific Revolution." Of course, there are still major questions about earthquakes for which we really have no answers at this time.
Probably the most asked question is, Exactly when will the next damaging earthquake happen?... But when one
considers how much we have learned about the other important questions-
• Where is a strong quake likely to happen?
• How probable is it?
• How intense will the shaking be?
• How well will our infrastructure fare?
• Where should we avoid building critical structures?
• How do we design and build earthquake-resistant structures?
--when one considers these questions and what has been learned since 1906, it is clear that tremendous progress
has been made
What is the most likely reason the author included the bulleted list of questions?
1906 Marked the Dawn of the Scientific Revolution
to identify the types of questions the scientists asked about earthquakes in 1906
to inspire readers to begin researching questions about earthquakes
to emphasize how ignorant scientists still are about earthquakes
to summarize the range of knowledge scientists gained about earthquakes

Read this paragraph from chapter 5 of the prince. there are, for example, the spartans and the romans. the spartans held athens and thebes, establishing there an oligarchy: nevertheless they lost them. the romans, in order to hold capua, carthage, and numantia, dismantled them, and did not lose them. they wished to hold greece as the spartans held it, making it free and permitting its laws, and did not succeed. so to hold it they were compelled to dismantle many cities in the country, for in truth there is no safe way to retain them otherwise than by ruining them. and he who becomes master of a city accustomed to freedom and does not destroy it, may expect to be destroyed by it, for in rebellion it has always the watchword of liberty and its ancient privileges as a rallying point, which neither time nor benefits will ever cause it to forget. and whatever you may do or provide against, they never forget that name or their privileges unless they are disunited or dispersed, but at every chance they immediately rally to them, as pisa after the hundred years she had been held in bondage by the florentines. what idea is stressed in the passage? the desire for liberty the establishment of an oligarchy the dismantling of an acquired state the tendency toward rebellion
