Answer:

3. A great leader has great self-control and makes sound decisions.

Explanation:

The Ancient Greeks where strong people who established a great civilization which is studied and admired even till this present day.

The Greeks showed certain attitudes and admirable values which they lived their lives by.

Some of these values and attitudes are Bravery, Self control, Intelligence, Loyalty, Honour, Truth, Hospitality e.t.c.

The question above is about Odysseus and his men who after their trip to Troy, made a stop Ismarus, city of the Cicones. He and his men plundered and raided the land due to their greed. Despite the pleas of his men to return to the ship, Odysseus refused. Unknown to them the reinforced ranks of the Cicones were on their way, they got to where Odysseus and this men were and they turned on them and attacked. Odysseus and his crew finally escape, but Odysseus lost 72 of his men.

Odyssey's behavior in the story and question above was against Greek values or attitude because he lacked self control due to his greed and this clouded his judgement, hence he could not make sound decisions to leave the Island of Cicones and preserve or save his life and that of his men while he still had the chance before the reinforced ranks of Cicones attacked them.

Answer:

3. A great leader has great self-control and makes sound decisions.

Explanation:

Odysseus and his men found a large flock of sheep, cheese crates, and milk and whey vessels on cyclops island. Odysseus men were keen on taking their food and went back. However, Odysseus refused to take the belongings of someone owner of this Island without meeting him. He believes that Greek owners protect their travelers and are very hospitable. Hence, the Island owner will give his men gifts along with food. Here, Odysseus reflects self-control when things were unpredictable and tried to make firm decisions as a leader.

Contrast how Winston and O’Brien perceived their meeting in “the place with no darkness.”
olasank [31]

Answer:

The meeting in the place with no darkness between Winston and O'Brien was perceived as a place that Winston  feels instantly that he recognizes this place.

Explanation:

The expression "the place with no darkness" is introduced actually into this excellent novel in Chapter 2 at the introduction, when Winston dreams of O'Brien, and is repeated at various other phases throughout the novel.

The impression of this phrase and dream is an indication that the future Winston Smith sees and how vital the  part O'Brien will play in that future, even though it is in different way radically, from what Winston thought

Winston finally gets to the Ministry of Love, and meets O'Brien there in a place with no darkness, he immediately feels that he knows this place before now.

This is one of many ways that Orwell foreshadows the future in this novel and points towards its rather unrelenting close and grim.

Why do they put a popcorn button on the microwave if the popcorn bag says not to use it
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

Even the popcorn bags have a warning on them telling you not to. The popcorn setting on many microwaves has only a preset time and no humidity sensor, which means that the microwave can't tell when something's burning.
