Answer:
"As a result" signals a transition that shows a cause-and-effect relationship.
for ex. My brother did not attend school yesterday because he was feeling sick. As a result, he now has to make up an English test he missed.
Explanation:
"On the other hand" is used to contrast two things. ex. I like the color purple, <em>on the other hand</em>, my sister despises it.
"also" is being used to transition to another, similar thing. ex. The store <em>also</em> had those snacks you enjoy, so I bought them.
"before" doesn't always mean it relates two events with a cause/effect relationship. ex. I locked the front door before we left for dinner.
The approach that Baldwin suggests is that of seeing the gods not as personifications of natural elements, but as gods themselves. Baldwin believes this approach to be more charming and fairer to the stories.
The main reason why Baldwin argues this is that he believes this is what the Greek people intended when telling the stories. By arguing the opposite, we are putting our own ideologies and points of view on them, instead of appreciating things as they described them. We also attempt to give the myths a useful and practical meaning (which he describes as utilitarian) instead of appreciating the spiritual and aesthetic elements of the story.
Yuck is the interjection.
