<h3>What is the theme of the story Bellerophon and Pegasus?</h3>

The Theme of this tale is to never confront a higher power without solid justification. The Lycian ruler sends Bellerophon on an impossible quest to slay the monster Chimaera rather than killing him.The Lycian king has never heard from anyone, therefore he has no expectations.

The correct answer is C.

The central idea of this passage is that the US needs to grant its black population freedom and equality.

Douglass makes the argument that this country cannot reach its maximum potential if a good portion of the population is oppressed. He compares the oppression of African-Americans in the United States to cutting off the right arm of every soldier going to war -- senseless and dangerous.

Duty, in a way, contributed to the shallowness and failure of Ivan's life. Not because duty in itself is bad, but because it has become Ivan's only preoccupation, apart from pleasant life. Tolstoy's negative view of duty is seen in the second half of this sentence: "he considered his duty all things that were so designated by people in authority". So, we are talking about duty as Ivan sees it, and Ivan sees it as it was designated by people in authority. That means, Ivan structures his life and his priorities according to the view of those above him. His only ambition is to try and climb the social ladder. When he fails to do it, he is disappointed and has to find another obsession - of course, materialistic one. And that is the decoration of his new house. That's when he falls down and injures himself - so, indirectly, his materialism has cost him his health and, ultimately, his life.

As she was legally required to do in Montgomery Alabama and many parts of the south. Tired from a hard day at work. Mrs. Parks refused to budge and was arrested, fined, and jailed. Meetings were held at Dexter avenue church, a nonviolent Boycott of the Montgomery bus system began and the Civil Rights movement was born.
