Episode 8.2: Exāmen

 

rūrsus in tablīnō Sinistrī erant. lūmina rediērunt, et Recentiī circum sē spectāvērunt: mūrī vitreī, mēnsa levis, Sinistrus quī post mēnsam stābat. in mēnsā parvus lapis āter iacēbat.

 

Sinistrus eōs spectāvit, et subrīsit. "ergō," inquit. "tempus est. quid respondētis? potestne studium rērum Rōmānārum, et lingua Latīna, cīvitātem servāre? potestne disciplīna Rōmāna mundum servāre?"

 

"nōlīte timēre. nūlla respōnsiō falsa est, sī vērē cōgitātis. dīcite mihi: quid putātis?"

 


 Recentiī quid respondent?

 

Option A: Bellātor respondet: "ita vērō! lingua Latīna cīvitātem servāre potest."

 

Option B: Octāviāna respondet: "ita vērō, sed nōn sōla: aliae quoque rēs valent."

 

Option C: Octāviāna respondet: "minimē, sed tamen aliquid bonī in eā est."

 

Option D: Bellātor respondet: "minimē. lingua Latīna cīvitātem servāre nōn potest."
