The incentive scheme that rules sumo is intricate and extraordinarily powerful. each wrestler maintains a ranking that affects every slice of his life; how much money he makes, how large an entourage he carries, how much he gets to eat, sleep, and otherwise take advantage of his success. the sixty-six highest-ranked wrestlers in japan, comprising the makuuchi and juryo divisions, make up the sumo elite. a wrestler near the top of this elite pyramid may earn millions and is treated like royalty. any wrestler in the top forty earns at least $170,000 a year. the seventieth-ranked wrestler in japan, meanwhile, earns only $15,000 a year. life isn’t very sweet outside the elite. low-ranked wrestlers must tend to their superiors, preparing their meals and cleaning their quarters, and even soaping up their hardest-to-reach body parts. so ranking is everything. which sentence from the excerpt best supports the idea that the high-ranking sumo wrestlers enjoy many luxuries? the incentive scheme that rules sumo is intricate and extraordinarily powerful. the sixty-six highest-ranked wrestlers in japan, comprising the makuuchi and juryo divisions, make up the sumo elite. a wrestler near the top of this elite pyramid may earn millions and is treated like royalty. the seventieth-ranked wrestler in japan, meanwhile, earns only $15,000 a year.

Select the correct text in the passage. which two lines in this excerpt from shakespeare's romeo and juliet foreshadow the tragic fate of romeo and juliet? friar laurence: so smile the heavens upon this holy act, that after hours with sorrow chide us not! romeo: amen, amen! but come what sorrow can, it cannot countervail the exchange of joy that one short minute gives me in her sight: do thou but close our hands with holy words, then love-devouring death do what he dare; it is enough i may but call her mine. friar laurence: these violent delights have violent ends and in their triumph die, like fire and powder, which as they kiss consume: the sweetest honey is loathsome in his own deliciousness and in the taste confounds the appetite: therefore love moderately; long love doth so; too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.
