Surprise
Who are the two groups of accusers?
earlier accusers；order accusers
I say: that there have been two groups of accusers, the ones accusing me now, and the others long ago of whom I speak: and you must also suppose that I should first speak in defense against the latter, for you heard them accusing me earlier and much more than these later ones here. 18e

Athens
How you, men of Athens, have been affected by my accusers(17a)
Which three classes of people did Socrates question?
The politicians ，The poets ，The artisans
After the politicians I went to the poets(22a) Finally, then, I went to the manual artisans. (22d)
Socrates claims to know all things.(true/false）
False
But I do not have knowledge of them 20c
What does Socrates tell the court his best witness is?
his own poverty
For, I suppose, I offer a sufficient witness that I speak the truth: my poverty. 31c
How old when Socrates was accused
70
For this is how it is: now is the first time I have come before a law court, at the age of seventy; hence I am simply4 foreign to the manner of speech here. (17d)
Who is Meletus
Accuser
So let us take up from the beginning what the accusation is, from which has arisen the slander against me—which, in fact, is what Meletus trusted in when he brought this indictment against me. (19a)
Who Antyus represent for the trial?
craftsmen and the politicians
Antyus behalf of the craftsmen and the politicians24a
What portion of the vote is required in order to avoid being put to death?
one fifth
Maesletus is concerned; and not only have I been acquitted, but it is clear to everyone thAantyitfus and Lycon had not come forward to accuse me, he would have had to pay a fine of a thousand drachmae, since he would not have gotten a fifth of the votes.35b
Who accused Socrates on behalf of the people
Meletus, Anytus and Lycon
From among these men, Meletus attacked me, and Anytus and Lycon, Meletus being vexed on behalf of the poets, Anytus on behalf of the craftsmen and the politicians, and Lycon on behalf of the orators. (24a)
How many votes have changed
30
But as it is, as is Rely, if only thirty of the votes had fallen differently, I would have been acquitted. （36a）
What does Meletus claim that socrates thinks the sun and moon are?
That the sun is a rock and the moon is an earth
[MELETUS] No, by Zeus, judges, since he declares that the sun is stone and the moon is earth. 26b
Who is Chaerephon?
Socrate‘s comrade from youth
How does Socrates mock MELETUS's accusation of unbelief
Anaxagoras
Wondrous Meletus, why do you say this? Do I not even believe, then, that sun and moon are gods, as other human beings do? (26d)
Do you suppose you are accusing Anaxagoras,My dear Meletus? And do you so much despise these men here and suppose that they are so inexperienced in letters that they do not10 know that the books of Anaxagoras of Clazomenae are full of these speeches? （26e）
Why is Socrates' claim to be deliberately corrupting the young people of Athens absurd
Because the power of one man is too small, Socrates does not believe that one man can corrupt a young man
That all human beings make them better, while one certain one is the corrupter? Or is it wholly opposite to this, that one certain one is able to make them better—or very few, those skilled with horses—while the many, if they ever associate with horses and use them, corrupt them? Is this not so, Meletus, both concerning horses, and all the other animals?（25b）
What did the jury expect socrates to choose for his punishment?
Exile
Well, should I propose exile, then? 37c
Socrates: Death is Either...
being nothing or An afterlife
Now being dead is either of two things. For either it is like being nothing and the dead man has no perception of anything, or else, in accordance with the things that are said, it happens to be a sort of change and migration of the soul from the place here to another place. 40c
What is the virtue of judge and orator
For this is the virtue of a judge, while that of an orator is to speak the truth.(18a)
Why did Crito ask Socrates to decide quickly whether to stay or leave
Because this is the last time they can decide
“So see, Socrates, whether this is both evil and shameful,
for you and for us as well. Think over—or rather, there's no longer time for
thinking but only for deciding—this one consideration, because everything
must be done this coming night;”(46a)
What does socrates request for his sons?
Punish them if they choose wealth over virtue.
This much, however, I beg of them: when my sons grow up, punish them, men, and pain them in the very same way I pained you, if they seem to you to care for money or anything else before virtue. 41e
