Sample Response: The Cyclops is angry that Odysseus, a weak and tiny man, was able to blind him and trick him. To make matters worse, Odysseus has no regrets, and he does not apologize even though the Cyclops offers to treat him well if he returns. Instead, Odysseus insults Cyclops more than once during his escape. Cyclops knows that the gods have power over men's lives, and this is his only opportunity for revenge. Thus, he is motivated to seek revenge against Odysseus.

Most of the sentences that integrate this excerpt have a similar structure because all of them, except for the first one, begin with the determiner "her". Moreover, most of them have a noun as head of the subject. For example, in sentences 3, 4, 5 and 6, the heads are "cause", "principles", "temper" and "conduct" respectively. Furthermore, most of the sentences have a subject complement. In the case of sentence 2, 3, 4 and 5, the subject complements are "unclouded and promising", "good", "just and liberal" and "serene and firm" respectively. Therefore, the structure of most of the sentences in this excerpt is Subject + Verb + Subject Complement.
