Questions 1-3 are about the following passage.
Ancient Greece was a very advanced society, but someone had to make the laws. The first lawmaker in Ancient Greece was named Draco. He changed the old system, which was based on what people said and who was in their families, to a written law. Not much is known about Draco's life since he lived during the seventh century BC. He is mainly remembered for his laws.
What made Draco so famous is that his laws were harsh. The word "draconian" comes from Draco. It means overly harsh or strict. Draco wrote the laws and posted them on wooden tablets in the center of town so that everyone could see. Draco made very strict rules, which made regular people into slaves. For example, if someone owed someone money, and they didn't come from a good family, they would have to become slaves to whoever they owed money to.
Draco believed that all crimes should have harsh punishments. Whether it was a murder, small theft, or not clearing debts, Draco believed that people needed severe punishments. He thought that it would make them understand that committing crimes was not acceptable. Later, all of Draco's laws were taken away by Solon, another Athenian lawmaker.
