How are Odysseus’ interactions with Cyclops and Circe simila?

English
1 answer:
babunello [35]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The two goddesses with whom Odysseus has extended affairs are similar in that Circe is a devastatingly beautiful goddess-enchantress and Calypso is a devastatingly beautiful goddess-nymph; but they contrast in their motives toward and treatment of Odysseus.

Explanation:

After Odysseus (following Hermes' advice) initially conquers Circe, she does everything she can to help him. In addition to releasing the spell that turned his men into swine, she is such an excellent hostess and lover to Odysseus that his men must talk him into going on with the journey a full year later. Even then, Circe helps the Greeks with supplies and advice.

Calypso, on the other hand, is an egocentric, dominating goddess who holds Odysseus captive for seven years in hopes of marrying him. When he resists and is liberated by Hermes under orders from Zeus, Calypso offers him immortality if he will stay. When he declines even that offer, Calypso leads Odysseus to believe that letting him go is her idea: "I am all compassion," she lies (5.212). Her possessive obsessions make her more trouble than she is worth for Odysseus.

siniylev [52]

Answer:

The answers are: organizing and drafting

Explanation:

Writing is considered a process which consists of four steps: <em>Prewriting, Drafting, Revision and Publication. </em>

When it comes to the Drafting phase organizing and drafting are part of it.<u> It is at this time that you put your ideas together or organize them thoroughly</u>. It is very important to use appropriate words in order for your writing to serve its purpose.

Research is part of the Prewriting Phase, so it is not included in the Drafting Phase. Anticipating is also part of the Prewriting Phase. Here, you try to know who your audience is and what kind of information you want them to receive. <em>Editing and Proofreading</em> are part of the Revision Phase.

After this, the writing will be published (Publication Phase).

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Bossy: Kylie is telling Anna what to do.

Unappreciative: Anna did what Kylie told her to do, but instead of being appreciative, Kylie asked what she used to wipe the mirrors and immediately told her to redo what she had done.

Perfectionist: Kylie told Anna to wipe the windows all over again since she didn't use a specific material to wipe of the mirrors as Kylie wanted it. Kylie also corrected Anna's technique since she was supposed to do it that specific method instead of what Anna was doing before.

2. Big challenges are created by nontraditional economies, natural disasters, and emerging democracies on the United States government because these factors lowers the production and sale of American products in the market that affected the economy.
