Read the excerpt from "Perseus and the Quest for Medusa's Head." One day, the king called all the noble young men of his country

together and told them that he was soon to marry a queen from beyond the sea. He asked each of them to bring him a present to be given to the bride’s father, for in those times it was the custom that when any man was to be married, he must offer costly gifts to the father of the bride. “What kind of presents do you want?” said the young men. “Horses,” answered the king, for he knew that Perseus himself had no horses to give. Perseus was vexed by the king’s request, which he knew was meant to shame him. Impulsively he cried out, “Horses—is that all you ask? Why don’t you ask for something worth having? Why don’t you ask for Medusa’s head?” Upon hearing this, the king smiled triumphantly. “Then Medusa’s head it shall be!” he said. "These young men may give me horses, but you, Perseus, must bring me the head of Medusa." Which detail from the text best supports the inference that Perseus is being reckless by trying to impress the king? "Upon hearing this, the king smiled triumphantly. 'Then Medusa’s head it shall be!' he said." "'Why don’t you ask for something worth having? Why don’t you ask for Medusa’s head?'” "Perseus was vexed by the king’s request, which he knew was meant to shame him." “'Horses,' answered the king, for he knew that Perseus himself had no horses to give."

Answer:

Explanation:At that point, Danae was childless, and to keep the prophecy from coming true, Acrisius locked her in a tower. However, Zeus had seen Danae and had grown fond of her; so, during the night, he appeared to her in the form of golden rain and impregnated her. She gave birth to a baby, which she named Perseus.

The core idea of A Club Pilot is that you must struggle for what you want in life, while the central ideas of Barrio Boy are identity and belonging.

<h3>How should the information be illustrated?</h3>

It should be remembered that Mark Twain discusses his experience working for a volatile boss in Cub Pilot. He provided examples of the effects bullies have on other people.

Ernesto Galarza's autobiographical book Barrio Boy describes his family's escape from their small Mexican community and the ensuing hardships they had adjusting to life in America.

Mark Twain describes his two years as a steamboat pilot apprentice in this biography. A person who works for a master artisan in exchange for training is called an apprentice. Twain attributes these years to his capacity to comprehend many people, both actual and imagined

Here, the key idea of A Club Pilot is that you must struggle to achieve your goals in life, while the central ideas of Barrio Boy are identity and belonging
