Answer:

A)Americans should not assume that they are safe from attack and so must be prepared for war

Explanation:

In this excerpt, Roosevelt warns listeners that even though many believe the US is free of an attack and that no nation would likely commit to attack American territory, America should be prepared for any retaliation by those who are selfish enough to try to stop the freedom of the people, that is, Roosevel warns that even if the possibility is small, the US should prepare to face Nazi Germany or its allies. The part of the excerpt that makes this clear is:

<em>"We must especially beware of that small group of selfish men who would clip the wings of the American eagle in order to feather their own nests. </em>

<em>I have recently pointed out how quickly the tempo of modern warfare could bring into our very midst the physical attack which we must eventually expect if the dictator nations win this war."</em>

The correct answers should be C, B, and B. I hope these are correct for you. In paragraph 3 it says " 100 years later the Negro live on a lonely island". this means the answer is C for the first one. The second one is B because when he says chains of discrimination he does not mean their actually held by chains. This means B is the answer for the second one. In paragraph 8 it says that "The Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty". This means B is the correct answer for the third one. Hope this helped.

Can someone give me a brief summary of what happened in the Iliad?
Lynna [10]

Answer:

<em>The Iliad is an epic poem written by the Greek poet Homer. It tells the story of the last year of the Trojan War fought between the city of Troy and the Greeks. Achilles - Achilles is the main character and the greatest warrior in the world. He leads the Myrmidons against the Trojans.</em>

<em />

<em>The story covered by “The Iliad” begins nearly ten years into the seige of Troy by the Greek forces, led by Agamemnon, King of Mycenae. The Greeks are quarrelling about whether or not to return Chryseis, a Trojan captive of King Agamemnon, to her father, Chryses, a priest of Apollo. When Agamemnon refuses and threatens to ransom the girl to her father, the offended Apollo plagues them with a pestilence.</em>

<em />

<em>The Greeks, at the behest of the warrior-hero Achilles, force Agamemnon to return Chryseis in order to appease Apollo and end the pestilence. But, when Agamemnon eventually reluctantly agrees to give her back, he takes in her stead Briseis, Achilles‘s own war-prize concubine. Feeling dishonoured, Achilles wrathfully withdraws both himself and his Myrmidon warriors from the Trojan War.</em>

<em />

<em>Testing the resolve of the Greeks, Agamemnon feigns a homeward order, but Odysseus encourages the Greeks to pursue the fight. During a brief truce in the hostilities, Paris and Menelaus meet in single combat over Helen, while she and old King Priam of Troy watch from the city walls and, despite the goddess Aphrodite’s intervention on behalf of the over-matched Paris, Menelaus is the victor. The goddess Athena, however, who favors the Greeks, soon provokes a Trojan truce-breaking and battle begins anew.</em>

hope this helps :)
