Read the excerpt from The Odyssey. Few words I shouted in reply to him: ‘If I could take your life I would and take your time aw

ay, and hurl you down to hell! The god of earthquake could not heal you there!' At this he stretched his hands out in his darkness toward the sky of stars, and prayed to Poseidon: ‘O hear me, lord, blue girdler of the islands, if I am thine indeed, and thou art father: grant that Odysseus, raider of cities, never see his home: Laertes' son, I mean, who kept his hail on Ithaca. Based on his response to the Cyclops, what can be inferred about Odysseus?

From this excerpt it can be inferred about Odyseus that he has put his men and even himself in danger. The reason is that he spent 10 years, after killing the cyclopse, to go back home and in his way home they had to encounter different problems. He went to Hades realm, they made it pass polythemus and then he got trapped on an island.

Answer:

He has put himself and his men in even more danger.

Explanation:

This talk of Odysseus shows anger and inconsequence. He is not calm at this moment and this ends up putting him and his companions in danger. This happens after Odysseus kills the Cyclops and goes on his way to go home, but many bad things happen (such as being trapped on the island where the witch Circe lived, for example) which takes him 10 years to return to his home.

HELP! Does somebody know how to write a strong introduction? Please message me because I'm having a very hard time! I'm going to
Anit [1.1K]

Explanation:

I was always good at writing. You should start your introduction of with something that will grab the readers attention. For example, you could say "Tim and I(the two boys) have always been afraid of clowns, so why did we decide to go to the circus? Good question-it all started 3 weeks prior to us going." That's not a really good one, but i hope you get the idea!

What would you do if you needed $1000 six months from now and you don’t have nearly that much in either your checking or savings
Zolol [24]

Answer: you could invest in a stock exchange. By buying shares of stocks you could have the potential of gaining large amounts of money over a long (ish) period of time. However, you have to be careful because it's really easy to lose money. The safest way to invest would be buying safe stocks like SAP500.

Read the lines from Robert Hayden’s poem "Monet’s ‘Waterlilies,’” and then look at the painting Water Lilies by Claude Monet.
BabaBlast [244]

Answer: The  right answer is the second one: An allusion to conflict.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little bit more on the answer, it is relevant to mention that American poet Robert Hayden (1913-1980) was very concerned with the experiences and history of Black Americans, hence his reference to two major conflicts that directly affected that community: the Civil Rights Movement and the Vietnam War, represented by the cities of Selma and Saigon, respectively. From the city of Selma, in Alabama, departed, in 1965, a series of protest marches organized with the goal of claiming the constitutional right of African Americans to vote. Those who participated in them were violently attacked, arrested and even killed. At the same time, and paradoxically, many African Americans had been sent to Vietnam in order to fight in the war and freed the South Vietnamese people, even though their own rights were not protected in their own country. For that reason, one of the major American Civil Rights Movement organization, the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, became the first one in publicly showing opposition to the war, linking the two movements (anti-Vietnam war and Civil Rights Movement) inextricably.

It is for that reason that the speaker in Hayden’s poem resorts to Monet’s famous painting, which captures the serenity and the beauty of a little corner of his Japanese garden, in an attempt to escape, if only for a moment, from that violent reality.
