Read the passage from Animal Farm. The pigs were in ecstasies over Napoleon's cunning. By seeming to be friendly with Pilkington he had forced Frederick to raise his price by twelve pounds. But the superior quality of Napoleon's mind, said Squealer, was shown in the fact that he trusted nobody, not even Frederick. Frederick had wanted to pay for the timber with something called a cheque, which, it seemed, was a piece of paper with a promise to pay written upon it. But Napoleon was too clever for him. He had demanded payment in real five-pound notes, which were to be handed over before the timber was removed. Already Frederick had paid up; and the sum he had paid was just enough to buy the machinery for the windmill. How does the use of card-stacking support the theme in this passage? Lack of understanding about foreign concepts can lead to fear of them. It is important to acquire the best deal from those you do business with. Corrupt leaders trust no one because they know that they themselves cannot be trusted. Leaders will highlight the positives of every situation to make themselves seem competent.

It is much safer to be feared than loved, when, of the two, either must be dispensed with. . among the wonderful deeds of hannibal this one is enumerated: that having led an enormous army, composed of many various races of men, to fight in foreign lands, no dissensions arose either among them or against the prince, whether in his bad or in his good fortune. this arose from nothing else than his inhuman cruelty, which, with his boundless valour, made him revered and terrible in the sight of his soldiers, but without that cruelty, his other virtues were not sufficient to produce this effect. –the prince, niccolò machiavelli what kind of reasoning does machiavelli use in this excerpt? he uses inductive reasoning because he offers statistics to prove his claim. he uses inductive reasoning because he observes a pattern and proves a conclusion. he uses deductive reasoning because he relies on scientific experiments to prove a conclusion. he uses deductive reasoning because he introduces a conclusion and proves it with evidence.
