A. Sparta
B. Stagira
C. Athens
D. None of these

Answer 1

Hint: Aristotle was a Greek philosopher and learned expert in the classical period of ancient Greece. Under the guidance of Plato, he was the founder of Lyceum, the founder of the philosophical school, and the Aristotelian tradition.

Complete step by step answer:
Aristotle, whose name means "the best purpose" in ancient Greek, was born in 384 BCE. Born in Stagira, Chalcidice, about 55 km east of today's Thessaloniki. Aristotle's intellectual reach was wide, covering most of the sciences and many arts, including biology, botany, chemistry, ethics, history, logic, metaphysics, rhetoric, philosophy of mind, philosophy of science, physics, poetry, political theory, psychology, and zoology. Stagira or Stageira is an ancient Greek city located near the eastern coast of the Chalkidice peninsula, which is now part of the Central Province of Macedonia. The city’s ruins are located about 8 kilometers (5.0 miles) northeast of the current village of Stagira, near the town of Olympiada. Stagira was established in 655 BC by the Ionian settlers of Andros. Xerxes I of Persia captured it in 480 BC. Later, the city joined the Delian League headed by Athens, but left the city in 424 BC: As a result, the instigator Cleon of Athens besieged it in 422 BC
So, the correct answer is Option B.

Note: Socrates was Plato's teacher, Aristotle studied at Plato Academy, and Aristotle was a highly paid tutor of Alexander the Great. In other words, both the famous Greek philosopher and the famous Greek philosopher-king (both in some form) have a teacher-student relationship.
