Answer:

Option B. Prometheus carried <u>burning embers</u> down from Mount Olympus.

Explanation:

In Greek Mythology, the Titan Prometheus was known as a naughty trickster and got punished by Zeus for it. The story tells that Prometheus felt sorry for men's weakness, so he decided to raid the workshop of Athena and Hephaistos on Mount Olympus as he carried down from it burning embers that he gave to the man to help this one with his life's struggles. By Prometheus' actions men discovered the fire, but Zeus was outraged by the Titan's theft and sent him far to the east, where he was chained, and by Zeus' orders, an eagle was sent to eat Prometheus' liver.

Consider Mrs. Dubose’s camellias and how they grew back after Jem mutilated them. What might the camellias symbolize in this nov
Monica [59]
They symbolize hope within the novel. When Tom Robinson is on trial and is eventually killed, the children experience a loss of innocence which is later followed by a period of recovery, similar to that of the camellias. At first, Jem is extremely distraught by Robinson's death, thinking that the court would treat all men equal, but the children do not let that event make them think all of the world is evil and prejudiced and eventually heal, knowing that there will be evil in the world yet they can be the good in it. Jem, who is older than Scout, experiences a regrowing after Robinson's death which is juxtaposed against the camellias he destroyed earlier in the book. I hope my explanation helps! ^u^

Read the passage. excerpt from Eothen by Alexander Kinglake I went to see and to explore the Pyramids. Familiar to one from the
notka56 [123]
<span>The central idea of this passage is D. The Egyptian pyramids are familiar even to people who have never visited them.

The author clearly starts by saying that, although he has never seen the pyramids before, he knew exactly what they’re supposed to look like. Many times before he has seen them in pictures, so it is understandable that the idea of what the pyramids look like is already in his head. Although he then continues to talk about the size of the pyramids, there is still a tone of familiarity. </span>

Read the excerpt from Justice Sotomayor's speech "A Latina Judge's Voice."
sp2606 [1]

Answer: It shows her strong connection to her heritage.

Explanation:

Latina people are descended from the Spanish people when they intermarried and colonized extensive parts of the Americas and as a result, the primary language of the Latino people is Spanish.

In using Spanish words instead of English, the writer is trying to show her connection to her Latina heritage that uses Spanish to communicate. This is much like Chinese people using Chinese to describe their food so that people know that the food is of Chinese origin.

Write a sonnet poem about fishing
Marianna [84]

Answer:"Bold" was all I could think about his plan

To just go fishing and not go to school

Brilliant was what it was - on or off hand -

All who saw it that day thought it was cool

Worms was what was lacking - and that was all

So I dug around until bait was had

Slimy things fishing worms, just a gross ball,

But it's a thing for bringing fish to hand

So slipping out a school room door that day-

Two boys, a can of worms, a fishing plan -

Until Mrs Smith then caught on to our play

And stuck a hand into our wormy can

Sounds that I did not know  - but did Mrs Smith

Still may stay in that school room air forthwith
