Curiosity.

Odysseus is a self-assured guy who lives by his courage as well as his wiles. He's an intellectual; and although he is self-disciplined, his curiosity sometimes gets him into a lot of trouble. Odysseus is also willing to pay a price for knowledge. It is this intellectual curiosity that drives him to hear the Sirens' song despite the pain he must endure while being tied up to the mast of his ship. If it weren't for those excruciating straps, he would have been lured to his death.

So what was so enticing about the Sirens' song? They promised gifts of wisdom and knowledge of the future. Who could resist that?

Hope this helped! :)

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

You could do some sort of color scheme involving the rainbow or different shades of the same color. You could do a plant theme, a planet theme, a heart theme... anything you want! Just try not to add too much clutter so you are still able to see your information. :)

Which of the following is NOT an advantage of learning to find the gist of a piece of text you are reading?
Georgia [21]

You can eventually begin to skip over parts of passages as you read and still figure out what's going on in the writing.

Being able to get to the gist allows you to read more efficiently and more effectively. It allows you to read with purpose. Most people read by looking at every word, every sentence, every paragraph as its own independent piece.
