Answer:
Explanation:
In regards to the Ancient Greek Poem by Homer called "The Odyssey", the cyclops curse made it so that Odysseus would never make it home, but in the unlikely case that he did, it would take him so long that he would lose all those close to him. This would make life incredibly hard when he got home. The poet included this to most likely illustrate the stakes that were involved for Odysseus which would influence his actions.
Answer:
Okay. First of all you need to understand that you are writing an argumentative essay which means you need to
a) state your thesis (fancy way of saying claim)
b) support your thesis (body paragraphs)
c) state the counterclaim (this can go in as early as your thesis to as late as your last body paragraph)
d) refute the counterclaim (refute it with one of your stronger reasons)
If you are pro-young people then your reasons should be centered around:
- are most familiar with current technologies
- have the most physical potential <em>(the energy to work outside/lack of illnesses caused by old age)</em>
- have incentive and want the best for their future <em>(will grow up in this community)</em>
- empathetic and knowledgeable about their community <em>(most young people are on the Internet and see the state of the world daily)</em>
- known for being the most accepting of minorities
The counterclaim should be something like:
- They aren't wise <em>(can be refuted by their invaluable knowledge of technology and culture of today)</em>
- They are politically active or have any actual influence in society <em>(Can identify the work of BLM or the MeToo movement, or any other youth-led movement. (I live in the US so these are movements I have the most understanding over) They will also grow up to lead societies and will take their current mentalities with them)</em>
- Young people are all trashy and disrespectful in general, etc. <em>(This is an untrue stereotype labeled on every younger generation)</em>
<em />
If you are anti-young people then your reasons should be centered around:
- Their lack of wisdom <em>(have only seen the world from their phones, haven't experienced much yet)</em>
- Their inability to complete any change <em>(very few are actually able and willing to try and create any political impact)</em>
- Small attention spans <em>(they have the ability to </em><em>start</em><em> a change but run out of fuel before anything gets done)</em>
- Lazy <em>(like I said before, knowing a lot about technology means using it </em><em>a lot</em><em>)</em>
The counterclaim should be something like:
- They are familiar with technology <em>(adults can be taught this work and have literal jobs dedicated to it)</em>
- Their physical potential <em>(adults in their 30s or late 20s can still do hard labor without hurting themselves)</em>
- Incentive<em> (can be rebutted with lazy)</em>
- Empathy <em>(there is an actual study that women in their 50s are the most empathetic)</em>
- Accepting of minorities<em> (a stereotype that does not apply to all young people)</em>

Personally I would go for pro-young people, but I do have slight bias as I am a teenager. If you need any other help, message me.
Answer:
It shows how the boys are conducting themselves as uncivilized brutes.
Explanation:
War paint was used during wars between groups such as tribes. War itself is an uncivilized action because people are killing each other. Without laws, the boys are reverting to these warlike tendencies, which shows the theme: without rules, order will break down.
Hope this helps!
