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.

I’m a story about gladiators, which character is most clearly round? A. Camilla, the stranger from Gaul who is trying to make a
Rama09 [41]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

A round character is one that we have a lot of detail on. A flat character is one that we do not know much about (things like backstory, feelings, etc.)

Usually the round character is the main character. Out of these answer options, Camilla looks like the main character because stories usually aren't focused on villains (B and D) and Cecilia seems like more of a side character, so I believe Camilla is the main character.

She also seems the most round because it says that she is from Gaul and she wants to make a new life in Rome. We already have much more backstory to her than the others, so the the round character is A. Camilla, the stranger from Gaul who is trying to make a new life in Rome.

Have a wonderful day! :D
