8 LOUIS: (holding up a newspaper article) Look at this! A pipe burst, and the thrift store on Market Street was severely flooded

.
9 EDDIE: Check out those torrents of water in the picture.

10 LOUIS: (reading from paper) A deluge of water drenched the clothing on lower displays. Employees attempted to salvage some items, but the majority of the merchandise was destroyed.

11 EDDIE: People contributed most of those clothes after spring-cleaning. The store lost all of its recent donations!

12 ROSA: That thrift store had a great selection of inexpensive clothes. Postponing a reopening is bad for the families that rely on that store.

13 LOUIS: Can’t they just dry off the clothes?

14 ROSA: After so much exposure to moisture, they have probably begun to reek.

15 EDDIE: I don’t even like gross, smelly clothes for sports! They should smell clean and fresh just like fabric softener. (EDDIE smiles dreamily, imagining fluffy clothes right out of the dryer.)

16 ROSA: I’m sure Eddie’s not the only one who appreciates clean fabric. We should try to help restock the store.

17 EDDIE: I’ll design pamphlets to encourage people to donate! We can distribute them in school tomorrow.

C) The students want the owners to help them find soccer uniforms. D) The characters want the owners to help them find soccer equipment.

what cultural values are shown in the speech odysseus gave after he had blinded and then escape the cyclops?
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

The belief that Zeus and the other gods are supreme over all things and that helping strangers, extending hospitality to the guests was a popular belief in Greek custom which Odysseus is referring to in his speech.

Explanation:

Homer's epic "The Odyssey" is the story of the protagonist Odysseus and his journey back home to Ithaca after the Battle of Troy. The book contains the numerous obstacles and encounters he had during his journey back.

The given excerpt is from Book IX of the epic where Odysseus and his men had stolen food and sheep from the Cyclops Polyphemus. The Greeks believe in the custom of extending hospitality to their guests, even strangers. So, in this speech by Odysseus, he alluded to the <u>issue of hospitality where instead of extending help and service to the strangers</u> who had come to his home, he (Polyphemus) ate them and hurt them. This is the cultural value that is shown in the given excerpt.
