52:59 Read the excerpt from Part 1 of The Odyssey by Homer. but on the spot I told them: 'Back, and quickly! Out to sea again!'

My men were mutinous, fools, on stores of wine. Sheep after sheep they butchered by the surf, and shambling cattle, feasting,—while fugitives went inland, running to call to arms the main force of Cicones. How does this excerpt prove that Odysseus’s men caused their own problems? by describing their neglect of orders by explaining their military strategy by showing their physical weaknesses by illustrating their cruelty to one another

Answer:

By describing their neglect of orders

Explanation:

The first line of the excerpt shows the order that was given to the Odysseus men. "but on the spot I told them: 'Back, and quickly! Out to sea again!' ". But the succeeding lines reveal that instead of the Odysseus men to obey this order given to them, they were busy feasting and merrying. They were drinking wine and feasting on sheep and cattle. The writer described them as "mutinous" and "fools" because of this act.

By the time they were engaging in this careless acts, the fugitives were calling to arms the force of Circones.

Answer:

by describing their neglect of orders

According to “Last Rites of the Indian Dead,” what is a basis for Harjo’s argument that the U.S. government should make the remo
Verizon [17]

The basis for Harjo's argument is that the removal of Native American remains is destructive to the environment, as shown in the last answer option.

<h2>Why does Harjo use this argument?</h2>
  • For Harjo, the Native American have already been heavily exploited by American society and this should not be repeated.
  • He believes that indigenous people should have peace and respect even after their death and therefore their mortal remains should not be used in research or displayed in museums.
  • This is because, in addition to disturbing the indigenous people, the extraction of mortal remains negatively impacts the environment.

With that, Harjo takes a stand against the removal of the indigenous remains.
