For Odysseus and his men, the loss of Helios, the sun, symbolizes a loss of <u>hope</u>.

Tiresias had warned Odysseus about the cattle of Helios, the sun-god. He has warned Odysseus and his men not to disturb or harm the cattle as Harming them will lead to the death of each and everyone. Though Odysseus would remain alive and return home, but alone. He would lose all his men. On the other hand, Odysseus’ men killed the cattle and ate all of them. This instance led Odysseus and his men to think about the loss of hope of returning home.

Which sentence displays the most effective use of the italicized transition word?A. Although Hamlet has many positive traits, in

nadya68 [22]

Although Hamlet has many positive traits, including intelligence and a strong sense of right and wrong, his indecision takes center stage as his most prominent and, ultimately fatal flaw displays the most effective use of the italicized transition word.

A. Although Hamlet has many positive traits, including intelligence and a strong sense of right and wrong, his indecision takes center stage as his most prominent and, ultimately fatal, flaw.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The major tragic flaw of the play Hamlet is protagonist's procastination. It was not his inability or Queen Gertrude or Ophellia but Hamlet's own thought to move his work because of the timing and situation but infact his own moral values and lack of strong revenge. For Hamlet, the unfortunate blemish isn't a character defect, for example, an excess of pride, aspiration, or desire. Rather, it is the choice he makes to act as per the apparition's solicitation and murder Claudius.
