Answer:

The quality that the lines present is the sadness of Odysseus.

Explanation:

Odysseus is the king of Itaca and is married to Penelope with whom he had a son. He is very satisfied with the family life he has and wants to take care of his family, however, he needs to leave, when his son is still a baby, to fight together Greek nobles in the Trojan war. Odysseus wishes to return home and reunite with his family, and when the Trojan War ends, he begins the journey home, but this journey lasts 17 years and he engages in several adventures before he is able to return. Although the adventures distract him and he presents moments of happiness, lines 39-48 of "The Odyssey" show how sad he is to be away from his family and misses his wife and son a lot, which he never even saw grow up. This characteristic is important because it humanizes the character and shows him as a hero who has weaknesses like a normal human being.

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

D). Interference.

Explanation:

'Interference' in general terms is associated with 'obstructing or intervening in between a particular action or process. In 'speech communication process', it is described as the active or passive obstruction created by the audience that  often leads to break the flow and concentration of the speaker.

As per the question, 'coughing or walking of the audience' in the middle of a presentation would be exemplified as 'interference' because it would distract the speaker as well as other people sitting in the audience and obstruct their attention which may break the flow of ideas collaboratively and coherently. It would also affect their concentration that may <u>influence the readers' understanding(by blocking their capacity to receive the intended message) of the message or idea and therefore, the desired impact would not be evoked.</u> Thus, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.
