1. According to the passages, which situation would not constitute an illegal use of lethal force?

• A. A disgruntled cashier yells obscenities at a customer.
• B. A thief is seen running away with stolen cash.
• C. A man is attacked in an alley by another man with a knife.
• D. A woman punches another woman in a bar.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C because, according to the passage, lethal force may be legally used in self-defense or to protect others from imminent danger. In the situation where a man is attacked in an alley by another man with a knife, the use of lethal force to defend oneself would not constitute an illegal act. Choices A, B, and D do not involve a situation where the use of lethal force in self-defense would be justified, making them incorrect. A disgruntled cashier yelling obscenities, a thief running away with stolen cash, and a woman punching another woman do not present imminent danger that would justify the use of lethal force.

Choice A (200) is for Religion, not related to ancient Greek plays. Choice B (600) is for Technical and applied science, unrelated to literature. Choice C (700) is for Arts and recreation, more related to the performing arts but not specifically focused on written plays from ancient Greece.
