Read the excerpt from Ovid’s "Pyramus and Thisbe". Pyramus had left a little later than his Thisbe had, and he could see what su

rely were the tracks of a wild beast left clearly on deep dust. His face grew ashen. And when he had found the bloodstained shawl, he cried: "Now this same night will see two lovers lose their lives: she was the one more worthy of long life: it's I who bear the guilt for this. Which statement best describes how the order of events creates tension? Because Pyramus does not see the beast, readers fear confrontation. Because Pyramus does not see the beast, he believes he is lost. Because Pyramus is late, he misunderstands Thisbe’s situation. Because Pyramus is late, readers question his devotion.

Answer:

Because Pyramus is late, he misunderstands Thisbe's situation.

Explanation:

The excerpt from Ovid's "Pyramus and Thisbe" displays the tension created by the sequence of events and Pyramus' late arrival makes him misinterpret Thisbe's situation. Had he come on time, he would have realized that she was not killed by the beast but actually the beast itself. He witnesses a jawed lioness hanging out under the mulberry leaves where they were supposed to meet. But,<em> he reaches late and thus, assumes the situation and misunderstands it and kills himself with a sword that leads Thisbe also to kill herself with the same sword and ends on a tragic note. If Pyramus would not be late, the tragedy would have been something else. Thus, the option first is correct.</em>

The correct answer is: Because Pyramus is later, he misunderstands Thisbe's situation. This story is actually a beautiful and tragic love story of two lovers who were about to elope but fate had other plans for them. The story leads to a very tragic series of events that would ultimately become one of the famous Babylonian love stories to be told in the next generations.

Who is braver?
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

the person who leads a group of people is braver than someone who decides not to follow along with the rest of a group.

To be brave means being 'courageous'. Having the gut to face difficult or challenging situations without being forced to do it.

leaders is known to be a brave person because of his or her position. A leader has to be faced with a lot of responsibilities and uses their wisdom to direct a lot of people in order to achieve a goal. Taking up responsibility is a bold step and determines the level of bravery of such a person.

An example could be if you had to lead a group of people up a steep hill. A leader would direct them and help the weakest. They might fall behind to make sure no one gets hurt or gets lost.

The other example could be if your hiking, it may seem brave to not follow the direction of the group but it is less smart since you could get lost so in the end it is not good to not follow the group.

Explanation:

<em>I hope this helped you and good luck!</em>

Which character in The Odyssey most represents the art of the possible
givi [52]
Personally, I feel that Odysseus does, due to all of the supernatural troubles that he was able to overcome and to return home and successfully defeat his enemies that had taken over his house. This is a subjective kind of question, however, and this may not be what your teacher is looking for.
