Answer:
Explanation:
There's so many different kinds of advice to give. One I would give to my siblings is don't let life get you down.
Kids only understand but so much. All they want to do is run and play and be kids. What they don't understand is that soon, they will be paying bills, and working, and possibly providing for their own family´s. It is important to know this because sometimes, life can be challenging, hard, stressful, and depressing. But if you let it knock you down, you may not get back up again, and you will miss out on the great things that could possibly happen.
It is proven that every 1 in 5 adults over the age of 18 have experienced depression. A lot of these cases could be due to the struggles of being an adult. Sometimes, it isn't only the adults who can become depressed. Wanting to fit in, the loss of a loved one, not feeling good enough, can all lead to depression in children and these aren't even half of the reasons. But again, if you let these get you down, you may not get back up again.
I would want my siblings to know this because I don't want them to have a life where they are constantly being knocked down by challenges of game called life. Where the challenges are inevitable and there is nothing they can do about it.
Answer:
The figurative language means the arrows were quickly shot. It impacts the description of Odysseus because it shows he is a skilled warrior.
Explanation:
Notice how carefully the words were chosen to convey this image: "poured out" and "rain of arrows". Picture that - you must have seen something similar in movies -, dozens of arrows falling from the sky like rain. For Odysseus to be able to do that, he would have to have great skills. He would have incredible aim as well as speed to cause the impression that arrows are raining down. This is what the author wants to achieve with the use of this figurative language. In a most eloquent and vivid manner, he conveys how skillful Odysseus is.
