One understands from the passage that the Athenians ----.
In ancient Greece, Athens and Sparta both wanted to
be the leading power. Athens was rich and more
civilized, but Sparta was somewhat backward, though
brave and well-organized. The Athenians had a
splendid navy, while the Spartans had the besttrained
soldiers. Both city-states had allies that would
support them. They also had enemies who were
looking for the chance to attack. Moreover, Athens
and Sparta were rivals in another way. Each believed
that their city had the best laws and lifestyle. The
Spartans thought that the Athenians were soft and
pleasure-seeking. The Athenians looked on the
Spartans as being harsh and dull. In 461 B.C.,
Athens attacked Sparta and its allies. The fighting
continued for 14 years until the Athenians won, and
Sparta was forced to admit that Athens was the
strongest power in Greece.
