Which of these excerpts from the Iliad by Homer uses an epic simile? Good heaven! what active feats yon artist shows! What skilf

ul divers are our Phrygian foes! Mark with what ease they sink into the sand! Pity that all their practice is by land! . . . Then rushing sudden on his prostrate prize, To spoil the carcase fierce Patroclus flies: Swift as a lion, terrible and bold, That sweeps the field, depopulates the fold; . . . Now flaming from the zenith, Sol had driven His fervid orb through half the vault of heaven; While on each host with equal tempests fell The showering darts, and numbers sank to hell . . . For lo! the god in dusky clouds enshrined, Approaching dealt a staggering blow behind. The weighty shock his neck and shoulders feel; His eyes flash sparkles, his stunn’d senses reel

Write a sentence explaining why sagebrush is such an important plant at Hanford Reach National Monument.
scoray [572]

Answer:

The sagebrush that dominates the sage-steppe landscape plays a critical role in the hydro-logic cycle of the arid West. Sagebrush itself often serves as a “nurse” plant for other plants, many of which are important to sustaining grazing wildlife and domestic livestock.

Explanation: Please rephrase this, I found it on a wildlife website and this could count as plagiarism on your hand.

Why was Smith's speech important?
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Im in between A and D but I think its D

Explanation:

She said "“Freedom of speech is not what it used to be in America,” she complained. “It has been so abused by some that it is not exercised by others.”She was a senators and usaually senators were only seen and not heard, As Senator Margaret Chase Smith grew increasingly angry with McCarthy’s attacks and his defamation of individuals she considered above suspicion. So she went to talk to Mr.President.

<em />

<em>Its not B. "Smith's speech was one of the earliest to refer to women as a vital voting bloc" , because it didnt mention anything about women voting. </em>

<em>its not C "Smith's speech was the first made by a woman senator", because it mentions she was only ONE of the first senators to take such a stand. </em>

Im sorry it took me long to answer I had to do some research on her to get the information.

hope this helped :)
