Answer:

C. He is filled with sorrow and hides his tears in his cloak.

Explanation:

Homer's epic narrative poem "The Odyssey" tells the journey of Odysseus in his attempts to reach his home Ithaca. Enduring a plethora of hardships and even an intervention from the gods, he reached his home after being away for more than two decades.

Book VIII of the narrative takes place in the land of the Phaeacians. Odysseus was a guest in the kings palace, though in a disguise and no one remembered him. But through the feasting and sharing of news/ stories, Odysseus was emotional to hear of old tales and all about his known associates. Then, when the musician played the music, he could no longer control himself. The singer Demodocus sang about the "<em>feats of heroes, and more especially a matter that was then in the mouths of all men, to wit, the quarrel between Ulysses and Achilles, and the fierce words that they heaped on one another</em>". All these filled Odysseus with sorrow and he had to hide his face to wipe his tears away, without the knowledge of the Phaeacians.

Luden [163]

Answer: The answer is you can neither be fully supportive of the either. In fact the battle will go on or you may the arguments will perhaps get louder in the years to come.

Explanation: None of the nations wants to back from using a lucrative resources that they chance upon fully knowing the repercussions of climate change and various other damaging havoc that can impact the entire earth.

The greed in humans cannot be killed and perhaps we already are paying a heavy price for it. The conservationists believe the usage of the resources should be done in a responsible manner.

The supply need not be jeopardised for the future generations but no objections in continuing to use them though. Sustainability is the argument that they propound.

The preservationists are purists in the true sense they don't want to disturb mother nature and allow them to flourish in their pristine form and we continue to live in harmony with that.

The intrinsic value of the land and other resources  have to retained  and gained inspiration for its beauty and serenity. It is the theory that preservationists have stuck too for years.

Each is right in their own way, if we don't use the natural resources we won't be able to function as well as we do.

 If we don't preserve some of the natural resources and stick our head into every resource on the surface of the earth, there will be large destruction and extinction of flora and fauna.

Hence it would be right to say, that we need to rethink what we are going to do because in the next few years what we do will determine our future and there is no going back then.

Read the passage from The Call of the Wild and choose the words that best describe the character of Billee.
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Correct answer is A: It is a part of the exposition that describes Buck's

Explanation:

The story follows a dog named Buck, and all the misfortunes that happen to him. At one point of his life, he becomes a sled dog. It is true that in the lines following the mentioned paragraph, the author mentions that Buck welcomed these two dogs, but the accent of the story isn't really on Buck making friends. Also, there is mention about Spitz beating Billie and how Buck and Sol-leks got into a fight, but the accent of these paragraphs isn't on the fight. The writer rather focuses on the personal characteristics of each dog, which means that this is exposition that describes each of Buck's teammates.

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

Bobo is, as his name suggests, somewhat dimwitted, but he is basically honest and appears to be a loyal friend.

Hope this what you are looking for!!!

Have a blessed day:)
