Answer: <span>B. It uses a certain poetic structure.</span>
You may be talking about a different kind of subject but I think this is what you were talking about:
A subject is the first part in a sentence about which the second part, the predicate, tells something. The subject performs an action, or indicates what or whom the sentence is about.
I guess this also depends on what the "Advanced Reading Skills" lessons talks about, but don't think of it as "really hard"! Work on one word, one phrase, one sentence, and you'll start making progress. =)
In general, when translating, the first thing you'll have to do is to understand the paragraph, but you're right, this isn't that easy a paragraph to translate. You could use an English dictionary, or a bilingual dictionary (http://www.nciku.com<span>is good for English-Chinese) to help you. While you're doing this, try to pick out important words and translate them first, and see if you could understand what each sentence means. </span>
<span>Sometimes, words may have multiple meanings or be used as metaphors - for example, "amputated" means "having been cut off", but in your 2nd sentence, it means that the poet should not be condemned and criticised to the point where he is treated as having no value. </span>
<span>Finally, after you've translated the text, don't forget to read it to check if it makes sense in the language you're using - and if it makes for smooth reading!</span>
Answer:
To be honest, it all depends on whether you think his actions of unnecessary violence against monsters or evil individuals are horrific or acceptable. However, I feel Heracles is a positive character because, while being depicted as a ruthless and violent hero, he only fought horrible individuals and demons, not innocent people.
