How does Odysseus answer the Cyclops’ question about where his ship was, and why does he answer it in this way?

English
1 answer:
ivolga24 [154]3 years ago
7 0

Answer and explanation:

Odysseus is the main character in Homer's epic poem "The Odyssey", which narrates his journey back home after the war in Troy. At a certain point, Odysseus and his men end up sailing to the land of the Cyclopes, a race of one-eyed giants. The Cyclopes are quite uncivilized and not the brightest creatures on earth. One Cyclops, Polyphemus, immediately kills two of Odysseus' men upon their arrival. When Polyphemus asks Odysseus where his ship is, he replies that it was shipwrecked, in other words, destroyed and sunk, off the coast. Odysseus is lying because he is afraid Polyphemus will indeed destroy his ship. To prevent him from doing so and to be able to escape when the time comes, he tells the Cyclops there was a shipwreck.

While this may make a bit more sense with context, the speaker is saying that he is a heavy-set man. The first sentence means that if he were to have an "outie" belly button, it would be more appropriate for his figure, which is round, and sturdy ("keg-like"). 
He then discusses how he has chipped away at his father's genes since he realized that he was destined to be significantly overweight.

Alexxandr [17]
By repeating what you learnt to someone else helps, because you are saying out loud and can make you understand it deeper and things that did not make sense make sense again

vovangra [49]

The best place for this sentence if it is added to the paragraph is: between sentences 2 and 3.

  • Logical order in writing stipulates that ideas should flow in a sequential manner. This means that sentences should appropriately transit from the others.

  • In this excerpt, after mentioning that Gilgamesh was seized with terror in sentence 2, the other could have analyzed and elaborated further on his terror before moving to sentence 3.

So, the second option is correct.
