Ample, because the word volumious means-Occupying or containing muchspace; large in volume, in particular(of clothing or drapery) Loose and ample
ample means-
Enough or more than enough;plentiful Large and accommodating
Used euphemistically to convey that someone is fat.


so ample means to have enough or more than enough-or convey that someone is voluminous (fat in this case bc it takes up space) and voluminous means that it occupies a lot of space

Consider what

iogann1982 [59]

Taking into consideration what we know about American history in the period that ranges from 1820 to 1864, we can say the following:

Romantic stories reflected what was going on in the country since they portrayed the pioneer life of frontiersmen. Now that the expansion to the West was being encouraged, pioneers served as characters for Romantic stories, and their life in the wilderness provided a fresh setting.

<h3>What happened between 1820 and 1864?</h3>

During this period in American history, a law reduced the price of land in order to encourage people to move to the West of the country. The purpose was to populate the whole country as fast as possible.

During this time, immigration to the United States also increased greatly, especially from European countries.

<h3>How did that reflect in Romantic novels?</h3>

Stories of the Romantic period in the US reflected this new reality. In an attempt to distance themselves from British literature, the novels portrayed the reality of American people.

The stories' heroes were frontiersmen or pioneers who headed west, lived in the wilderness or rural areas, disliked life in the city, loved nature, and were resourceful. Their sense of moral was simple, and they often felt uncomfortable around women, but close to the natural world.

Why does the theft of the Tai-me represent the decline of the Kiowa people?

Gemiola [76]

I would say the Tai-me symbolized the collective strength of the Kiowa indigenous people in the US and was used in their ceremonial dances and was a doll about 2 feet tall with feathers and mocassins so its theft would be an affront to their beliefs.

Which is the most effective paraphrase of this excerpt? When Odysseus and his men arrived on the island of Cicones, they enslave

sammy [17]

This question makes reference to the following excerpt:

Plunder we took, and we enslaved the women,

to make division, equal shares to all—

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.

The most effective paraphrase for this excerpt is option D: The men continued their acts of greed despite Odysseus's commands to stop and return to the ship, and the fugitives of Cicones ran inland to fetch help.

"The Odyssey" is Homer's epic poem about the struggle that the Greek hero Odysseus suffered to return home after the Trojan War. Odysseus is the hero of the Odyssey and the king of Ithaca. He is strong, courageous and incredibly intelligent.
