i might be wrong but i think its C. characterization
The correct answer to this is:
The Cyclops is compared to a mast, or flagpole, because of his size.
The similie suggests that even Cyclops is laying down he is still huge and looks like a mast among the sheep.
In the excerpt from Part 2 of the Odyssey, Cyclops is not compared to Zeus, rather the men are "lifting hands to Zeus" (praying) because they are being eaten and need help from Gods.
Also, Cyclops does not surrender, he is taking a nap as he is full after his meal.
C. <span>She is thinking about her pig rather than the lesson. Hope I helped! Have a fantastic Friday!</span>
I'd say that the statement from FDR's speeches that uses parallel structure is C. American ships have been sunk; American airplanes have been destroyed.
Both of these independent clauses use the passive form of the verb - in the first clause, the passive form of the verb <em>to sink </em>is used, and in the second, of the verb <em>to destroy.
</em>A parallel structure means that throughout a sentence, the same form of words is used, and given that here both sentences have passive forms, I'd say C is the correct answer.<em>

Answer:
(D) Despite his nerves, he was ready for his first interview; he had thought through each potential question.
Explanation:
Semicolons are used when dealing with two thoughts that could be their own sentences.
Potential Sentence One: Despite his nerves, he was ready for his first interview.
Potential Sentence Two: He had thought through each potential question.
The semicolon separates these two sentences, so that they are one sentence.
<u><em>Despite his nerves, he was ready for his first interview; he had thought through each potential question.</em></u>
