Answer:

I would like to see more of Zeus in other epic and literary works because I feel as if there is never much talk about him in depth. His purpose in most just seems to be as the father of another child, or as the betrayer of his wife. All I really know about Zeus is his strength, backstory, family, specific powers, and the fact that he has slept around with many women. I would like to see if there are any other works where there is more to him than just all of that. I would like to know what kind of person Zeus is in his free time or if he has any thoughts when it comes to himself or helping others who ask of his assistance. I believe that Zeus would be interesting to see more of, especially since he is so powerful and there is little talk of the accomplishments he has made aside from his children.

I would like to see more of Hades in other epic poems and literary works. He has had so many different depictions and story-lines and I find it all to be interesting. He is depicted in the tale Persephone as being lonely and just wanting the company. In tales based more around his other brothers, however, he is shown as more of a heartless character who has never had feelings other than vile ones in his life. People have so many different takes on Hades and I feel like this makes him one of the most interesting Greek gods out there. He is such a complex character that some people don't even know how to universally describe him the same, and I think I would like to here everybody's different sides and views towards him.

The Plato answer is

Your answer should address the following points:

Name the god that you’d be most interested in reading about in a fictional work and explain why.

Who said it?
yaroslaw [1]

This is a quote by Elizabeth Proctor.

It is an important quote from <em>The Crucible </em>(1953) by Arthur Miller, a play that explores the story of the Salem witch trials in Massachussets in 1692.

In the play, Elizabeth Proctor is accused of witchcraft by Abigail Williams, her husband's mistress. In that way, the quote is from Elizabeth to John. In this excerpt of the play, she is talking about Abigail, who apparently wants to take Elizabeth's place. Therefore, Elizabeth uses these words to explain her husband that his mistress accuses her of witchcraft because she is motivated by jealously.

If you had to edit the passage below, which words would you correct?
Valentin [98]

Answer:

B, E, F, G

Explanation:

Subscetable is an incorrect spelling, the correct spelling is susceptible, and it means being open to or easily influenced by a thing.

Property in this context is incorrect, the correct word here is 'properly' which can be interpreted as 'in right manner'.

Can't is an abbreviation for cannot, and in a formal writing it is best to use the full form of a word rather than the abbreviation, therefore i would use the word 'cannot' in place of can't.

Unbeneficial is a controversial word yet to well incorporated in the vocabulary, it raises a question in the sentence. I would replace it with 'disadvantageous, unhelpful or unprofitable', because these words will be better understood in this context.
