Read the excerpt from The Odyssey. 'Cyclops, try some wine. Here's liquor to wash down your scraps of men. Taste it, and see the

kind of drink we carried under our planks. I meant it for an offering if you would help us home. But you are mad, unbearable, a bloody monster! After this, will any other traveler come to see you?' What best describes why Odysseus gave his wine to the Cyclops? He is hoping the wine will cheer up the Cyclops enough to set them free. He intends to make the Cyclops his friend by being kind to him. He plans to distract the Cyclops while his men escape through the entrance. He wants to trick the Cyclops by getting him drunk and weakening him.

Odysseus gave his wine to the Cyclops because<u> he wanted to trick the Cyclops by getting him drunk and weakening him.</u>

Cyclops captured Odysseus and his men in his cave and treated them in the most inhospitable manner. To come out from his captivity, Odysseus makes a strategy. He makes his drink very strong and offers it to Cyclops. After consuming the drink, Cyclops passes out. With the help of a burning piece of wood, Odysseus blinds Cyclops. This was the escape plan of Odysseus in order to run out of his cave.

In at least 150 words, discuss the contrasts that exist in “Aunt Imogen.”
Ray Of Light [21]
<span>Edward Arlington Robinson wrote a poem called “Aunt Imogen” which takes into deep consideration the life of a woman who lives in the city far from her sister's farm but every now and then she visits her sister. His poem is considered part of early modernism because of his use of traditional verse form, but rather than describing actions of the character the poet looks into consideration Aunt imogen's reflection on her life, her realizations, and her attempt to cope with her circumstances. His work is much different because of his use of connotative and figurative language, and the themes of alienation and of self-reflection of the life of Aunt Imogen, a the end of the poem aunt imogen learns to cope with her feelings stating that “<span>They were not hers, not even one of them: She was not born to be so much as that, For she was born to be Aunt Imogen”</span></span>
