Answer:

<h2>See below</h2>

Explanation:

Agamemnon was the leader the Greek Army during the Trojan war. When he returned home, he was murdered by his wife, Clytemnestra along with her lover. Agamemnon's son, Orestes' cannot stop the killing, but vows revenge, even though it means that he will have to kill his own mother. He eventually is able to avenge his father's killing by killing the murderers. Even though he has killed his mother, this action is considered just, so Orestes' doesn't feel any guilt over the situation. There are many similarities between that father/son duo and the Telemachus/Odysseus duo. Odysseus also fought in Greek Army against the Trojans. He has yet to return and it is questionable if he is even still alive. The suitors want to cash in on the opportunity that Odysseus' absence presents. They take over the palace and commit acts that dishonor Odysseus and his wife. Telemachus is asked to avenge the dishonoring of his father by killing the suitors. Athena assists him by telling him this story to encourage him.

In "And Some More," what literary device is used in "You’re foot fleas"? What effect does this have for the audience?
lawyer [7]

Answer:

She used Imagery.

Imagery can be defined as the use of figurative languages to represent ideas, objects, and actions in such a way that it appeals to our physical senses.

The writer's use of this literary device will help the audience to understand that the way something looks may be described through the use of figurative languages (name calling).

The writer wants the audience to know that this name calling is  indicative of their age. It is something that "children" do when they cannot  think of anything else to argue but don't want to lose the linguistic war  they have with each other through silence. She helps us to see that children believe that the name calling can hurt another child as much  as anything else they could say or do, and it did hurts.

Please help with the essay.
umka21 [38]

Individuals in life or death situations should not be held accountable for their action. They are obviously going to want to be alive and happy, and not die or live in misery, so victims would most likely do whatever it takes to survive. Whoever made the decisions weren’t fully thinking it through because we all develop mentally at a different age for children and adults. Individuals who are in life or death situations don’t put themselves in that positions purposely to where they know they can die. In situations like these, everyone feels stress to the point where they have no other option until it is too late when they make their final choice

hope this helps :'>
