8 0

It is the introduction of the story so it gives you an idea of what the story is going to be about without telling what the “problem” is or how the “problem” is going to get solved. When reading the introduction readers are going to have to have to read the rest of the story in order to figure out what happens creating tension.

Identify the steps to Eurylochus plan for the cattle

Firdavs [7]

Answer with Explanation:

After the Trojan War, Odysseus planned to go back home. Together with him was his second-in-command, Eurylochus (a cowardly man) Upon their return, they stopped over a mythological island called "Aeaea." This was the home of an enchantress named "Circe." So, instead of greeting Circe, Eurylochos stayed away and knew her treachery. He told Odysseus that the crew were turned into pigs, so Odysseus went to rescue his men. This started a fight between Eurylochos and Odysseus after he successfully saved his men from Circe. This ended in reconciliation and Circe telling Odysseus to seek advice from Tiresias (a blind prophet of Apollo).

The prophet told Odysseus that they shouldn't touch the "Cattle of Helios" or the "Oxen of the Sun." However, the crew were already hungry. Thus, Eurylochus convinced them to eat the cattle while Odysseus was asleep. He told the crew how better it would be to be killed by the gods rather than by hunger and thus, they believed him. They killed the cattle and ate them. Because of this, Zeus became very angry and destroyed their ship.

Everyone was killed except Odysseus (the only survivor).
