Answer
A
Athenians are more ready for war.
B
Athenians have braver ancestors.
C
Athens has a government where power is shared by many.
D
Athens serves as an example to other cities.

Explanation

Pericles says Athens is governed in the interest of the many, rather than by a small group, so power is shared broadly. He also describes Athens as a model for others, calling it an example to Greece. He does not claim Athenians are more ready for war or have braver ancestors; his speech emphasizes the achievements of the living Athenians.
