First of all, what is the definition of an epic hero? What makes an epic hero?

In homer's point of view, an epic hero must have/be these characteristics: 

- Undying bravery
- A supernatural power or talent
- A noble birth
- A warrior
- Humility
- Worldly (Travels great distances to complete great deeds and missions)

Now comparing these traits to Ulysses, we come up with this:

- Undying bravery
           He faces many challenges and yet, survives and conquers
- A supernatural power or talent:
           He is a mighty warrior
- A noble birth
           He is the son of a descendant of Hermes (his mother) and King of the Cephallenians (his father)
- A warrior
           He proves himself to be a mighty warrior by surviving all the challenges presented to him on his long quest.
- Humility
           He is not arrogant and performs justice by executing the men and women who worked against him
- Worldly 
           He travels far and wide to finish his quest and return home safely.

stellarik [79]

Answer:

1. I Ana had known the answer, she would have raised her hand.

2. Mr. Diaz would have been on time to work if he had taken the bus.

3. If Angela hadn't brought a jacket, Luis would have given her his coat.

4. Sofia would have bought a new cell phone if she had had enough money.

5. If Mrs. Garza had known how cold it was outside, she would have worn a coat.

6. If Adriana had realized how tired she was, she wouldn't have stayed out so late.

7. If Javier had checked his watch, he would have known how late it was.

8. If we had known how late the bus was going to be, we wouldn't have waited for it.

Explanation:

This question requires knowledge about the third conditional.

<u>The third conditional is used in English to express hypothetical situations in the past. In other words, we are imagining possibilities about something that has already happened.</u> For example, suppose you forgot to bring some money with you. Because of that, you weren't able to buy a jacket you saw that was on sale. You can imagine how things would have been: "If I had brought some money, I would have bought that jacket."

The structure of the third conditional is the following:

if + had (not) + past participle, would/could/might (not) + have + past participle

The if clause will not necessarily be the first one every time. Take a look at the examples below:

- She would have told you if she had known how important it was to you.

- If you had talked to me about it, we could have found a better way to do it.

- If Mario hadn't moved away, he and Dana would have gotten married.

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

1.Sometimes people fail to see the truth even when it is right before their eyes.

Explanation:

The theme of the story "Charles" is Sometimes people fail to see the truth even when it is right before their eyes.

This is evident in the story, where Laurie, even though was attributing the bad habits he is committing in school to a certain "Charles." Laurie's new yet bad attitude at home suggests he could be the "Charles, " yet the mother who happened to be the narrator could not detect until the final episode in school when the Kindergarten teacher revealed to her that there is no"Charles" in school, but rather it was Laurie that was doing those bad habits in school.

Difference between talk,talking,talked,and talken?<br><br> Learning English:P
sdas [7]
Talk: if the word "did"(helping verb) is in front of the word it is meaning that someone spoke in the past, but if the helping verb "will" is before the word it means that someone is going to speak in the future (most likely about to start talking)

talk-"ing": the same thing as "talk" EXCEPT "ing" is a suffix which means presently, so "talking" means that someone is currently speaking.

talk-"ed": once again the same thing, however, the suffix "ed" means already DID or in the past. 

talk- "en": actually this is sadly not an english word, but the suffix "en" means made of. For example, "golden" means MADE OF gold. 

Hope this helped:)
