1) The correct answer is: B) Developing

The word <em>develop </em>means to invent something or bring something into existence. <em>Refine</em> refers to the improvement of the idea by making small changes, that means the idea already exists, it is only modified.

2) The correct answer is: A) Refining

The word <em>focus </em>refers to pay attention to something, in this case an idea. From the options given, <em>refine </em>is the best choice as the idea already exists and improvement is needed. To do that, you need to focus on it paying attention to the small details.

3) The correct answer is: B) Well

Remember the difference between <em>good </em>and <em>well </em>is that the first one is and adjetive so it is used to modify nouns, and the second one is an adverd used to modify verbs. Fore example: you can be a <em>good </em>citizen, or you can read a <em>good </em>book. In the other hand: the car ran <em>well </em>or the kid played <em>well</em>.

4) The correct answer is: B) Tastier

Remember that to make comparatives and superlatives an -<em>er </em>or -<em>est </em>is used with most of one syllable adjectives and with certain two syllable ones. In this case <em>more </em>or <em>most </em>is not used because tasty has only two syllables. And you use the -<em>er </em>because you are comparing the meal with others.

Toward the end of Part I of Oedipus the King, Oedipus and Jocasta meet and have a long dialogue. Beginning in line 665, Jocasta
Brums [2.3K]

Answer and Explanation:

Jocasta explains that she does not trust the words of the prophets, because in the past, a prophet told her ex-husband that his son would kill him. In fear, her ex-husband drove the child out of the city and was killed years later, at a crossroads by a band of thieves, just before Oedipus arrived. This makes Oedipus very afraid, as it confirms the prophecy he received.

That's because Oedipus knows that he is not a legitimate child of the parents who raised him and that he was found as a baby. In addition, he killed a man near the crossroads to which Jocasta's ex-husband was killed. In that case, it is likely that he killed her husband and then married her, which proves the terrible prophecy he received that said he would kill his own father and lie with his own mother.
