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>

I just answered a question exactly like this one but I will answer it anyways.
I believe the answer is: C) Hiawatha...was probably based on a real person, a peaceful hero who helped to unite the Iroquois people hundreds of years ago.
This is because a connotation is an idea or feeling that a word invokes in addition to its literal or primary meaning. Seeing from the above information, Hiawatha seems to be about a positive event.
Answer:
Abigail loves Proctor and had wanted to get rid of his wife so that she can be together with him. But at the same time, she was afraid of the man for she knows he knows a lot about her more than anyone and that she fears she will be exposed. Her practice of <em>"traffick(ing) with spirits in the forest"</em> could be exposed and she will be put on trial and burned on a stake. So, she was extra careful to not show her real self while at the same time trying to influence Proctor to like her again.
Explanation:
In Arthur Miller's play <em>The Crucible</em>, the main focus of the story is the witch trials of Salem where there are numerous cases of young women involved in the practice of the dark arts. This story is also based off the Salem Witch trials famous in the Massachusetts Bay colony during the late 17th century.
The given passage is from the stage direction in Act I of the play after the girls were seen <em>"dancing like heathen in the forest"</em>. The result of this is the 'unnatural' sickness of Betty Parris, the daughter of Reverend Parris. Abigail, the presumed leader of the group in the forest had been involved with the Proctor family until she was discharged because of her affair with Mr. Proctor. And Betty had just exclaimed that Abigail did drink<em> "a charm to kill John Proctor’s wife"</em> which is obvious for she loves Proctor and wants him to be hers.
So, when Proctor came to see the sick girl, Abigail instantly felt on guard, for he knew her more than anyone else. And they have had history, and seemingly proctor also knows her hatred for his wife Elizabeth.
