Answer:

Tiresias tells him that as he refuses to bury Polynices and his punishment of Antigone for the same reason, god will curse people of Thebes. On hearing this, Creon calls him a false prophet and refuse to list to his advice.

Explanation:

In ''The Oedipus Plays'', Tiresias is the blind soothsayer of Thebes. Creon decided that he will listen to Teiresias’s advice as he owes so much to his past advice.  Tiresias tells him that as he refuses to bury Polynices and his punishment of Antigone for the same reason, god will curse people of Thebes. On hearing this, Creon calls him a false prophet and refuse to list to his advice.

The sentence: When Tonia said, "I think "the lottery" is the most disturbing story i’ve ever read!" we all agreed!" uses quotation marks and other punctuation correctly.

This sentence's quotation marks and other punctuation are correct because its structure is a reported one, and a reported speech should come with a (" ") quotation mark.

Also, "The lottery" seems to highlight the message the reporter is trying to pass across to their hearer. So, having it in "quotations" is correct.

The exclamation punctuation marks give meaning to the mood of both the originator of the speech and the reporter. The reporter seems grateful that Tonia said that because they, with other fellows, truly find the story most disturbing. So, making the other punctuation correct.

Which sentence best describes the word pathos? A. It's a sound pattern. B. It's part of a narrative. C. It's a literary device.
Lady bird [3.3K]
I would say C. a literary device because pathos is like a quality that causes people to pity or show empathy towards you. You may use this as a tool as a writer to make the reader feel a certain way about your characters or victims of an event. It can be used to better understand and better convince readers of your opinion.
