Answer:
Knowing Greek mythology helps us expand our vocabulary because:
A. Some words that we use today were used by characters in Greek myths.
Explanation:
There are words and expressions commonly seen and used in today's English that actually come from Greek myths and epic poems. Therefore, knowing about Greek mythology can help us understand the origin and meaning of those words. For instance, if you know about the hero Achilles, you will easily understand the expression "Achilles heel". If you have an Achilles heel, that means you have a weakness. That expression comes from the myth, where the hero Achilles, who was indestructible, had only one weakness - his heel. Only by being hit by an arrow in his heel is Achilles defeated.
Answer:
B. Tonya has a bandage, so the reader knows that she has hurt her finger.
Explanation:
We are asked to select an answer that tells us why the sentence overexplains the meaning.
The sentence is: <em>Tonya had a bandage on her finger because she had hurt it in some way.</em>
<em />
This sentence overexplains by stating the fact that Tonya had hurt her finger. If the sentence had simply stated:
<em>Tonya had a bandage on her finger.</em>
<em />
The reader could infer that she had hurt her finger, instead of the sentence having to explain that fact.
