The answer is: Anticleia is explaining why Odysseus cannot embrace her.

In the excerpt from "The Oddysey," Odysseus travels to the underworld, where he finds his mother's spirit. She tells him she has died of sadness, while waiting for him to go back from war. However, when Odysseus wishes to embrace his mother, he finds out her body is not composed of matter - it has no material existance and his arms pass through her. Anticleia is extremely upset, and explains that ghosts have no physical solidness.

Narrative Essay on Hurricane Sandy
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

Hurricane Sandy was definitely a very difficult time for everyone in the northeast region. Initially I did not realize how hard it was going to hit us, because the previous year Hurricane Irene did not have such a strong effect on my town. Of course we did not leave the house, and there were a few fallen trees, however it did not affect us like Hurricane Sandy did.

Even though I wasn’t expecting a very severe hurricane, my parents still prepared for the worst. They requested me to come home and stay even though many of my friends were still on campus.

For those five days we charged our laptops and phones inside of my mom’s car, and used them until they had to be charged again and again. During that time, we went on a hunt for all of our old DVDs in our basement, and brought them all up one by one to watch on the laptop. We would listen to the radio from time to time to find out if there were any updates regarding the power outage. The entire time I couldn’t wait for everything to get back to normal so I could return to school and start enjoying my life again.

It was one afternoon when my mom and I were in the car listening to the radio, when I realized that we didn’t have it nearly as bad as people in other ...
