B is correct. Temptation is a powerful thing, and they fell into it's trap.

Odysseus and his men understand there could be dangers ahead, and Odysseus as the leader must help them realize this, and act accordingly. Instead of doing that, they repeat the same mistake that had already brought them negative consequences.

It's a negligent act, and even though they know the possible outcome, they fall victims of temptation, by the pleasures of food and drink.

<u>The correct answer is B.</u>

What is the average acceleration of a jet ski that goes from rest to 10 m/s west in 4 s? Take the direction west to be positive,
Kay [80]
From the question we come to know several important information's and based on them we can reach the desired result.
Initial speed = 0 m/s
Final speed = 10 m/s
Initial time = 0 sec
Final time = 4 sec
Then
Average acceleration = (Final speed - Initial speed)/(Final time - Initial time)
                                   = (10 - 0)/(4 - 0)
                                   = 10/4
                                   = 2.5 m/s^2
So the average acceleration is 2.5 m/s^2. I hope this has made it clear to you about the procedure of solving such problems.

Left

A deserted school: A <em><u>solitary</u></em> child <em><u>neglected</u></em> by his friends. I can only give the answer to this. There is no way to show that it is so. But you could look at the previous paragraph where Scrooge sees two people cross paths and wish each other a Merry Christmas. Right about now, Scrooge does not feel either Merry or Christmassy. What he does feel is the sight before him of a deserted School and a solitary and neglected child, which of course is himself. Does that not suggest loneliness?

Middle

Memories of childhood. No person my age ever forgets the movie <em><u>Treasure Island </u></em>and the remarkable frightening performance of Robert Newton as Long John. I walked around for months giving a poor imitation of his accent. It's a must see movie.

The paragraph you want is the line beginning "This was not the map we found in Billy Bones chest ... " The line you want is "Sharp as must have been his annoyance ..." He could control it. Silver could wait. There was time. No need to get upset. The real map would show.

Three

They disappeared because the mist enclosed them. It was as though they were covered by an outer piece of clothing which made them invisible to the ordinary on looker. The answer is surrounded. You can't eliminate the other answers. They just don't apply. The second best answer is protected, but the ghosts don't need protection. They can take care of themselves. They just need to be surrounded by the mist when they are done.

umka21 [38]
This is what the passive version of this sentence would look like:
The statue of David was sculpted by the famous artist and sculptor Michelangelo in Italy in the early 1500s.
In English, usually the word that is placed in the beginning of a sentence is the most prominent one, and the most important one as well. It is where the emphasis of the sentence is. Having this in mind, the best reason for the writer to revise this sentence to be in the passive voice is to emphasize <u>the statue.</u>

Ludmilka [50]

Tolstoy created Gerasim to be a contrast to Praskovya Fedorovna in The Death of Ivan Ilyich by having both Gerasim and Praskovya Fedorovna be honest about their motivations, but only Gerasim actually cares about Ivan Ilyich.

It should also be highlighted that Gerasim has the ability to feel empathy and compassion for others. Gerasim places a high value on the well-being of others. Gerasim assists Ivan in excretion and comforts him at night as an assistance and obligation to a dying man.
