Yes because he knew if he told them, they'd begin to panic and would stop rowing. It was a clever heroic move

Answer:

Yes, due the the circumstances and previous setbacks they faced.

Explanation:

In The Odyssey it is shown from the departure of Troy that the mental status of Odysseus' men was set to get back home after being away for so long.

But when their journey starts to have setbacks they affect this desire. Men's moral and attitude questioning how worth had been their adventure begins to be hit hard.

Odysseus made a real clever move here because he knew how much his men wanted to get back home, he, himself wanted the same, but he knew that if he had told his men about the monsters their moral would have crumbled into pieces and stop rowing just praying desperate for salvation instead of looking for a way out. This shows how well Odyseeus knew the human psyche and how would it react in moments of great fear making the situation absolutely worse.

Write a story that ends with last straw breaks the camel's back​
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Check below for the answer

Explanation:

Chris entered into the university at a very tender age, a not so common one in our community. He was only fourteen. As every young boy would aim, Chris was determined to finish at the top of his class at graduation. On getting to campus, Chris started well by facing his studies but not without the childish euphoria that he achieved a great feat early in life.

It was so unfortunate that the room that was allocated to Chris in his first year was full of brigands and juvenile deliquents. He soon lost his dream for excellence. He started following them to clubs and partying all day without giving any attention to his studies. He started having minor issues with his academics but did not give enough attention to it. To him, it was benign. Several lecturers who took interest in him advised repeatedly but he turned deaf ears. In his fourth year of his medical school, he was rusticated due to poor performance, the least he could expect of himself. His parents went to the school to plead but it was too late. The provost of the college told Chris's parents that he had called Chris on several occasions to advice and warn him but he would not listen and it is unfortunate that the last straw breaks the camel's back.

Metaphors that compare humans to animals are very effective because they
Ganezh [65]
Metaphors that compare humans to animals "anthropomorphize" them. Anthropomorphization is a literary device that gives human qualities to animals. These metaphors may help to highlight the similarities between animal natures and human nature, which illustrates how truly similar every living thing is to each other. Hope this helps.
