Could someone please give me a summary for The Odyssey part 1?
pashok25 [27]

The narrator of the Odyssey invokes the Muse, asking for inspiration as he prepares to tell the story of Odysseus. The story begins ten years after the end of the Trojan War, the subject of the Iliad. All of the Greek heroes except Odysseus have returned home. Odysseus languishes on the remote island Ogygia with the goddess Calypso, who has fallen in love with him and refuses to let him leave. Meanwhile, a mob of suitors is devouring his estate in Ithaca and courting his wife, Penelope, in hopes of taking over his kingdom. His son, Telemachus, an infant when Odysseus left but now a young man, is helpless to stop them. He has resigned himself to the likelihood that his father is dead.

With the consent of Zeus, Athena travels to Ithaca to speak with Telemachus. Assuming the form of Odysseus’s old friend Mentes, Athena predicts that Odysseus is still alive and that he will soon return to Ithaca. She advises Telemachus to call together the suitors and announce their banishment from his father’s estate. She then tells him that he must make a journey to Pylos and Sparta to ask for any news of his father. After this conversation, Telemachus encounters Penelope in the suitors’ quarters, upset over a song that the court bard is singing. Like Homer with the Iliad, the bard sings of the sufferings experienced by the Greeks on their return from Troy, and his song makes the bereaved Penelope more miserable than she already is. To Penelope’s surprise, Telemachus rebukes her. He reminds her that Odysseus isn’t the only Greek to not return from Troy and that, if she doesn’t like the music in the men’s quarters, she should retire to her own chamber and let him look after her interests among the suitors. He then gives the suitors notice that he will hold an assembly the next day at which they will be ordered to leave his father’s estate. Antinous and Eurymachus, two particularly defiant suitors, rebuke Telemachus and ask the identity of the visitor with whom he has just been speaking. Although Telemachus suspects that his visitor was a goddess in disguise, he tells them only that the man was a friend of his father.

Which excerpt fromThe People Could Fly reflects the historical fact that enslaved people were kidnapped and sent overseas?
pychu [463]

Answer:

The folks were full of misery, then. Got sick with the up and down of the sea. So they forgot about flyin when they could no longer breathe the sweet scent of Africa.

Explanation:

The folktale of "The People Could Fly" by Virginia Hamilton tells tales such as when the African people were capable of magic and fly before they came to be slaves. The emergence of one man who helped them rediscover this ability led them to escape from their masters.

Among the given excerpts in the option, the lines <em>"</em><em>The folks were full of misery, then. Got sick with the up and down of the sea. So they forgot about flyin when they could no longer breathe the sweet scent of Africa"</em> reflects the historical fact of how the people were kidnapped and sent overseas to be enslaved. These facts can be known by the mention of <em>"the up and down of the sea"</em> which can only mean aboard a ship, traveling in the water. Further, <em>"they could no longer breathe the sweet scent of Africa" </em>also shows how far they were taken away from their homeland.

Thus, the correct answer is the first option.

Answer:

I dont fully understand your question,But my fellow brainly user I am gonna try and help any way's!

Explanation:

While many dogs are companions, other dogs do serious work that helps others. Working dogs have real jobs that they take very seriously. These dogs have natural talents that are carefully honed with intensive training. Working dogs are trained to help others and they love the work.

Many of the jobs done by dogs can be done by multiple dog breeds as well as mixed breed dogs. Kennel clubs and dog breed organizations categorize certain dog breeds in a "working group." While those breeds traditionally worked (such as herding or guarding), today those dogs may or may not perform those functions.

Explore the types of working dogs and the jobs they are specially trained to perform.

I hope it helps you!
