Answer:

"site" should be "sight"

"shear" should be "sheer"

Explanation:

The two mistakes are "site" and "shear".

"Site" is the location of something; in this case, that's not what the context is trying to say. Instead, the sentence is saying that "we" saw the pyramid, so it should be "we caught <em>sight </em>of the Great Pyramid of Giza".

"Shear" is cutting off the hair of something. Obviously, no one's hair is getting cut, so it doesn't make sense here. Instead, the correct word should be "sheer", which means something like "utter" or to express the power of an item.

How did Seamus Heaney incorporate Old English poetry elements in this modern translation?
leva [86]
<span>How did Seamus Heaney incorporate Old English poetry elements in this modern translation?
</span>His punctuation copies the half-lines used in Old English poetry.
In Old English poetry, one often used half-lines. This means that each line of poetry was split into two half-lines, and in each of these half-lines there were two strongly stressed words, often with the purpose of giving musicality to the poem. Heaney follows this half-line pattern in his modern translation.

Why are classical allegories not regarded as realistic fiction?
yan [13]
I would say that classical allegories are not regarded as realistic fiction either because their characters are generally flat and merely function as symbols for particular concepts or they often idealize country life while denouncing the city as corrupt and insignificant.
You pick, it's either of the two, I'm not sure which one.
