Which sentence in this paragraph states the reason for the growing popularity of feudalism in medieval society?Feudalism worked well in Britain and France for several centuries. The Church and religious leaders had a lot of power and influence with the ruling class. When the feudal system succeeded on the local level, kings and emperors used the system on a much larger scale to strengthen their monarchies. Under the feudal system, the king divided up his land among his most important lords. In return, the king required services such as political support, tax payments, and military force. The feudal lords then divided their shares of land among their best knights. Though the quality of life had improved for most people since the Anglo-Saxon period, society remained unequal.

Answer:

When the feudal system succeeded on the local level, kings and emperors used the system on a much larger scale to strengthen their monarchies.

Explanation:

There was obviously a experimental period at first. Kings did observe how it was going to work out before putting that in practice in a larger scale, but eventually, they were quite happy with the results and kept using the model. If you think about it, it worked a lot like outsourcing. The lords were taking care of the lands and administrating them (they owned those lands), but were still servants and subjects to the crown and had to pay taxes to the king.

"When the feudal system succeeded on the local level, kings and emperors used the system on a much larger scale to strengthen their monarchies"

Structure


A text can basically be built/arranged/organized in one of five ways: Sequence, which is the structure that describes steps or a certain order. Problem/solution is the structure that covers a problem and a solution and focuses on the events that took place in order to reach the solution. Compare/contrast is the structure that compares the likenesses and contrasts the differences of things. Description is the structure that goes over the details of something. And, cause/effect is the structure that highlights how something caused something else to happen.


Additionally, all five structures can be utilized within one of the four text types—narrative, expository, technical, and/or persuasive.


The correct answer is structure. All of the terms you mention here refer to text structure, or a poem structure.
