English

PolarNik [594]3 years ago

The author portrays Theseus as a flawed human being. In early adventures, Theseus proved that he was a 'hero' but it wasn't until he slew the minotaur he became a legend, the living embodiment of braveness. However the author also made sure to mention that he deserted Princess Ariadne and even killed her father without much thought in order to allow the reader to understand that this so called hero although brave is far from perfect.

Hope this helps!

Read the sentence. The lawyer presented a clear argument to the jury it was unbelievable how influenced they were by his case in
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

The best revision of this sentence is the following:

The lawyer presented a clear argument to the jury (it was unbelievable how influenced they were by his case) in the hopes of winning the trial.

A pair of parentheses needs to be used in order to separate this information from the rest of the sentence and facilitate reading and comprehension. The information in the parentheses is related to the meaning of the sentence but in some way it interrupts the flow, so a pair of parentheses is necessary in order to indicate this.
