Answer 1

The three correct responses that highlight differences between Sparta and Athens are:

1. In Sparta, men did not publicly share their opinions, while in Athens men spoke their minds in political forums.
2. In Sparta, conquest was used to get resources, while in Athens they used trade to get what they needed.
3. In Sparta, women had more freedom while in Athens, women were not allowed to participate in democracy.

The incorrect statements are about education and the role of slaves, as they misrepresent the practices in these city-states. In Sparta, children received military training rather than traditional schooling, and in Athens, slaves generally did not participate in government.
