As a huge fan of these books, I can help you here... BUT... I won't spoil it for you!
Mr. Brunner had the expectations that Percy Jackson should know the answers about the Greek gods and Latin, even when he didn't. He always looked disappointed when Percy didn't know the answer.
Percy though these expectations were unfair because he thinks that he is just a "stupid kid" and doesn't know anything, and can't be the perfect student. How wrong he is, I won't say.
Hope this helps! Have a great day!
A thesis statement is generally the first few sentences of your writing to help get your readers interested in what they'll be reading. So, if your thesis is unclear, they'll be confused about what's going on before anything even happens.

The correct answers are these two options: “but the towers themselves look blind” and “shattered image of a man or a god”. Taken from the short story “<em>By the Waters of Babylon</em>” by Stephen Vincent Benét (1937), the passage presented above narrates the moment when John, the son of a priest, visits the Place of the Gods. <u>The Place of the Gods</u> or <u>The Dead Place</u> was a great city that was destroyed by a great burning and it was said to be inhabited with spirits and demons since then. Since the passage describes this <u>desolate place</u>, the writer used a suspense tone in the narration. By definition, desolation is the state of a place that is completely empty or where everything has been destroyed. In this case, the two options “<em>but the towers themselves look blind</em>” and “<em>shattered image of a man or a god</em>” are the correct phrases that describe the details of a destroyed, desolate place which is <u>the Place of the Gods</u>.
