<span>Odysseus is called twice to adventure. </span>
<span> He was First called by Agamemnon to fight in Troy. He tries to avoid service by pretending to be mad (he sows the beach with salt). Agamemnon throws the infant Telemachus in his path and when O stops, they know he is not mad. (Here the trickster is tricked: a constant theme in all folklore: recall the morning after Jacob’s wedding: he wakes up expecting the beautiful Rachel </span>
<span>and instead finds Leah in his bed!) His first adventure then is the Trojan War: the Iliad details all the tests of strength, it is only in the Odyssey that we hear of his trickery: the famous horse! </span>
<span>b. There were 2 reasons after leaving Troy for why does he get called to a second set of trials/adventures?  
1. Akhaians as a group didn't sacrifice to gods, which angered Athena so she made their homecoming difficult.
2. O incurs wrath of Poseidon by blinding his son, Polyphemous.  (O names himself to Poly. in desire to show off his cleverness. His hubris leads to punishment). </span>

Answer:

The Trojan War

Explanation:

When Helen (who is also Penelope's cousin) is kidnapped, Menelaus reminds all of Helen's past suitors of their oath to support him. Odysseus, however, initially wants to avoid the war. He was told in a prophecy that if he participated in the war, he would not come back home for twenty years. He tries to pretend he is insane in order to get out of it, but his plot is discovered. He ends up having to go, and this is the first time he is called to adventure.

I can help you with the writing section.

The quote spoken by Jeff Bingaman is basically stating that he supports immigration reform that is for family, reunification, and economic contributions and humanitarian concerns.

Your task is to write an exposition based on his quote. A exposition is defined as a. comprehensive description and explanation of an idea.

Here is info regarding the requirements of the exposition:

- The thesis statement you create should defend your position or opinion about what he has said. So it should be an argument.

- Your supporting arguments should. back up why you feel or think the way you do about his idea on immigration. This would be the why.

- A restatement would basically be a conclusion.
