Answer:

The figurative language means the arrows were quickly shot. It impacts the description of Odysseus because it shows he is a skilled warrior.

Explanation:

Notice how carefully the words were chosen to convey this image: "poured out" and "rain of arrows". Picture that - you must have seen something similar in movies -,  dozens of arrows falling from the sky like rain. For Odysseus to be able to do that, he would have to have great skills. He would have incredible aim as well as speed to cause the impression that arrows are raining down. This is what the author wants to achieve with the use of this figurative language. In a most eloquent and vivid manner, he conveys how skillful Odysseus is.

Julli [10]
The correct answer should be:

A. <span>Tennyson's poem criticizes the officers who ordered the charge, while Southey's poem praises the generals who led the battle.</span>

Tennyson stressed out the mistake done by the officers for pursuing that battle disregarding the safety of the soldiers, All they did was order everyone to fight but with no other choice but to die. On the other hand, Southey emphasized the leadership of the officers in the war because they have attained the fruits of victory.

How does the author skillfully connect the various points to build his claim for creating a monument for Colonel Young?
Elodia [21]

Hello. You did not present the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for it to be answered. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.

It is only possible to answer this question if a reading of the text is made. However, we can consider that it is only possible that an author is able to connect the various points of a claim, through the use of a correct and efficient text structure. This is because it is the text structure, which manages to connect the dots in a text.

This structure can be chronological (when connecting the dots through a timeline), sequential (when presenting a sequence of things or events), problem and solution (when presenting how problems were solved), cause and effect (when presenting the cause of some events), comparison and contrast (when it shows the similarities and differences between two elements).

Therefore, to answer this question, you must read the text and identify the type of textual structure that the author uses when submitting a claim to create a monument to Colonel Young.

How do movie producers make their space shuttle scenes appear realistic for the audience
yan [13]
It really depends on the movie. For instance, in Apollo 13, scenes were shoot aboard a Boeing KC-135 or the Vomit Comet. It is a NASA's refueling tanker plane for Zero G training. Astronauts wanna-be would fly up in the plane and experience a free fall.
