<h2><u><em>Answer:</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>Phrixus and Helle Fly Away on the Golden Ram</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>The plan was to fly to Colchis, the kingdom on the furthest coast of the Black Sea, and the very edge of the known world, putting as much distance between the children and Ino as possible.Phrixus and Helle were hated by their stepmother, Ino. She hatched a devious plot to get rid of the twins, roasting all of Boeotia's crop seeds so they would not grow. The local farmers, frightened of famine, asked a nearby oracle for assistance. Ino bribed the men sent to the oracle to lie and tell the others that the oracle required the sacrifice of Phrixus and Helle. Before they were killed, though, Phrixus and Helle were rescued by a flying, or swimming,[1] ram with golden wool sent by Nephele, their natural mother; their starting point is variously recorded as Halos in Thessaly and Orchomenus in Boeotia. During their flight Helle swooned, fell off the ram and drowned in the strait between Europe and Asia, which was named after her the Hellespont, meaning the sea of Helle (now Dardanelles); Phrixus survived all the way to Colchis, where King Aeëtes, the son of the sun god Helios, took him in and treated him kindly, giving Phrixus his daughter, Chalciope, in marriage. In gratitude, Phrixus sacrificed the ram to Zeus and gave the king the Golden Fleece of the ram, which Aeëtes hung in a tree in the holy grove of Ares in his kingdom, guarded by a dragon that never slept. Phrixus and Chalciope had four sons, who later joined forces with the Argonauts. The oldest was Argos/ Argus, Phrontis, Melas, and Cytisorus.</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>Explanation:</em></u></h2><h2><u><em>also I know because I read stuff like this also MARK BRAINLIEST PLZS PLZS</em></u></h2>

Without adjectives, we could not describe things. Color would be less precious to us: there would be cars, but not red cars or blue cars or black cars. In describing a cat to someone who’s never owned a cat, all you could say is, “A cat is an animal with ears and a tail.” You couldn’t explain its soft fur or sharp claws.
