Which lines in this excerpt from Book 12 of Homer's Odyssey reveal that the monster Scylla cannot be defeated in battle, even by

a great warrior such as Ulysses?
Ah, shun the horrid gulf! by Scylla fly.
'Tis better six to lose, than all to die.'

"I then: 'O nymph propitious to my prayer,
Goddess divine, my guardian power, declare,
Is the foul fiend from human vengeance freed?
Or, if I rise in arms, can Scylla bleed?'

"Then she: 'O worn by toils, O broke in fight,
Still are new toils and war thy dire delight?
Will martial flames for ever fire thy mind,
And never, never be to Heaven resign'd?

Deathless the pest! impenetrably strong!
Furious and fell, tremendous to behold!
E'en with a look she withers all the bold!
She mocks the weak attempts of human might;

A neighborhood resource officer asks residents to clean up litter, remove graffiti, and install better lighting in a nearby park
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:  Problem-solving

Explanation:  This kind of request is based on a solid understanding of danger that's been going on in the neighborhood.

Cleaning up litter is the key to cleaner streets, air and better surroundings for the children.

Better lighting is a way of getting rid of the drug dealers that are around since they wouldn't want to be around bright lights thus rather in darker streets.
