Answer:
The role of contemporary myths in their daily lives, such as at home with family, working with colleagues, and in the media, is to create concepts of idolatry, admiration, and perception of some common and social senses.
Explanation:
There are some meanings to the word myth, which show the role of contemporary myths in people's daily lives. One of them is related to the first contact that humans have with the world. It is the cosmogony; the mythical accounts of the creation of the world and all that is in it. Another sense is the wonder, the charm, the idolatry that they make of human beings, gods. For example: The Beatles is the greatest rock band of all time. Michael Jackson is the king of pop music. Elvis Presley is the king of rock. Pele is the king of football. And how to forget the "celebrities" made by the media? A third meaning is myth as an explanation of common sense, therefore popular and social. Ex: you can't eat mango and drink milk. One should not feed and bathe, because one can die, the belief that the stars determine our character and destiny, among other popular beliefs.
Answer and Explanation:
I believe the author, Ambrose Bierce, used the surprising ending of his short story "An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" to indirectly criticize romanticism. Romanticism is characterized by idealization of people, especially women, as well a the supernatural interfering in people's lives - among other characteristics. At first, that seems to be the path Bierce has taken with this story. When the main character, Peyton Farquhar, is about to be hanged, the noose of the rope breaks, and he escapes. He begins to swim and later walk back home, so far indicating an ideal ending based on luck and chance.
However, a more attentive reader already begins to notice something strange about all this. Not only is Peyton having alarming symptoms all over his body, but going back home would not be a clever alternative. The soldiers could very well follow him home and kill him there. It turns out that Peyton has never escaped. The noose breaking, his returning home and meeting with his lovely wife, all of it was just a brief hallucination. He dies hanging from the bridge. There is no romantic ending to this story, but a more realistic - and crude - one.

Answer:
Because they should know what job they are applying to, and not just show up clueless because it shows the interviewer that you are less likely to be hired, therefore wasting their time. And asking how long until you get a raise when you aren't hired yet seems a little extreme, and gives off a bad impression!
