The character trait that Penelope demonstrated when she calls for the suitors to hold  a contest is her demonstrating cleverness, like Odysseus does when he tricks and overcomes his foes.

The other character that has a similar trait with Penelope is Odysseus.

Intelligence or Cleverness. Odysseus.

In the epic, Oysseus's intelligence or cleveness is highly valued. The goddess, Athena, favors Odysseus because of his intelligence. Penelope demonstrates this trait when she first tells the suitors that she will choose a husband after she has woven a tapestry. She unravels it at night so it is never complete. When they discover her trickery, they demand she choose a husband. To keep them at bay longer, she devises the contest. It is an incredibly difficult feat to shoot an arrow through the ax handles, but it is an acceptable contest because it has been previously completed, by Odysseus.

Sherice needs to select a topic for her first speech in class. What would be a good suggestion for her to follow?
Elina [12.6K]
<span>For her first speech in class, Sherice should select a topic with which she is familiar with and in which she is interested.  For example, if Sherice loves her dog and is responsible for it, then she could talk about the proper care and feeding of dogs.  This topic could be easily researched to add details to the speech, and Sherice would be able to add a personal touch to keep the audience engaged.  If the audience senses that the topic is important to the speaker, then they will be more likely to find it interesting themselves.</span>

Write about the motif of "the quality of people" in regards to boo radley. how does the radley family fit into the different arg
Nuetrik [128]
Boo Radley was a good person but perceived as someone who must be isolated. He himself chose to isolate himself from society. The justice about whether to judge him as a murderer or a defender was overlooked by Atticus because of Radley's history. The instability of Boo's family highlights the theme of how even within homes, equal human rights can be ignored. Aunt Alexandra is traditional and prejudice at first but becomes open to the views of Atticus because of her love for the family.
