Answer: Grant can be a "hero" only through his interaction with Jefferson.

Explanation: Grant realizes that he had falsely regarded self-worth to things such as education and that there was much more to a human than his original understanding and he recognizes this when he says “My eyes were closed before this moment, Jefferson. My eyes have been closed all my life.” (Gaines, 2002, p. 225”). Jefferson taught him that redemption belongs to everyone and that his duty to his community is worth much more than he initially thought it did.

Grant can be weak, cynical, and negative, but by just helping Jefferson and made some change, however small, is a huge thing. Grant was taught that his work and that he himself had some good attributes. Grant's commitment to his community, even if it's something that drives him crazy, is a huge role Jefferson plays in, and it shows change and commitment in his character afterwords.

Answer:

D. formal, with specialized terms and descriptions

Given that this occasion involved history scholars, it is believed it more of academic or professional settings, thereby the language mode should be formal.

In the odyssey which of these inferences about odysseus' arrival home is best supported by the poem?

Marta_Voda [28]

In the odyssey the inferences ‘men like us who eat bread’ best supports the odysseus' arrival home

<u>Explanation:</u>

‘The Odyssey’ is a poem written by Homer. This is a poem about Odysseus who’s sole purpose is to reach his home and reunite with his wife. But it wasn’t easy for him to reach his destination. The reason why he left his home was because he was a warrior and wanted to fight in the battlefield of Trojan war.

As the poem moves forward, readers get to known what all difficulties Odysseus face. But the line from the poem, ‘men like us who eat bread’ indicates that there are people who offer such hospitality because of whom Odysseus’s goal of reaching his home is accomplished.
