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.

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.

Does anybody know the answer key to the CommonLit, "The Life of Julius Caesar."?​
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

According to Shakespeare as the author of this play, He portrays Caesar as an ambitious and loyal man. He is a prisoner of his principles and always fixed to the laws of public institutions. He was charged by his conspirators as someone whose judgment is delusional because he looks for absolute power over Rome which was not true. His faith in his principles and obedience to the law did not allow him to quit going to the Senate. He does not pay heed to his wife's dream because he was a man of his words.

Explanation:  

Caesar's aura and public image was immortal to him and he always has a deep faith on his capabilities. The ideas of Caesar which were conflicting to Rome powerful elite made sense by the end of the play in Act V when Brutus finally accepted that Caeser's power is beyond his grave and producing misfortune for them.
