Explanation:

• For "warrior": The passage says "he keeps his weapons ready for use" and knows "martial [military]...virtues", so warrior is a role.
• For "teacher": "The three classes of the common people make him their teacher" shows teacher is a role.
• For "role model": Since common people "respect him" and follow his teachings to understand priorities, he acts as a role model.
• "Commoner" and "farmer" have no support in the passage.

Answer:

warrior, teacher, role model
