Current studies of early modern absolutism—rule by one person with absolute authority—emphasize continual negotiations between ruler and ruled. The rulers who often staged spectacular displays of their might spent much of their time arranging deals and forestalling opposition, negotiating constantly with nobles and others for acceptance of their rule.
The effective ruler was not the one who brusquely subdued opponents, but the one who both avoided antagonizing those opponents who could not be easily subdued and who gradually lured most others into his court with political appointments.
The rule of Cosimo I de’ Medici, a sixteenth-century duke of Tuscany, exemplifies this
strategy
. Beginning from a weak position, Cosimo became one of Europe’s most powerful rulers, founding a dynasty that lasted well beyond his lifetime.
Which of the following actions by a ruler would best serve as an example of the “strategy” referred to in the passage?
选项
A、Marrying the son or daughter of the ruler of a neighboring territory despite parental opposition.
B、Putting on a spectacular parade to celebrate a recent military victory.
C、Installing one’s heirs in positions of power before they reach adulthood.
D、Seizing the properties of the local nobility in order to increase personal holdings.
E、Awarding a potential competitor a coveted position in the royal palace in exchange for allegiance.
答案
E
解析
本题属于类比题。根据原文, “策略”指的是政治任命,因此选项E正确。
