English
1 answer:
Burka [1]3 years ago
4 0

The cyclops is compared to a mast, or flagpole, because of his size.The simile in the excerpt is "Cyclops...lay down like a mast among his sheep." He is not surrendering, but rather taking a nap because his belly is full of Odysseus' men and he's tired. The options that say he is compared to Zeus are incorrect. In the excerpt the men are praying to Zeus for help because the Cyclops is eating them. They do not say the Cyclops is like Zeus at all.

What did klorine say when she married a man 3 1/2 feet tall/?
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Hi there!

The answer you are looking for is: She said: "Better to have loved a short man than never to have loved a tall."

When she married a man that was three and a half feet tall, Klorine said better to have loved a short man than never to have loved a tall. To make her statement even more clear, she also added that the one who asked that question doesn't know the correct notation for height.

Hope this helps!
