In the poem, Tennyson refers to both Ulysses and Achilles. This technique is called B. allusion in literature.
When you use allusion, you are referring to people or places outside of the novel or essay, or whatever it is you are writing. And since Ulysses and Achilles are not Tennyson's characters, he is alluding to them when he mentions them in his poem.

Which best explains London’s purpose for comparing the consequences of stealing for a man and for a husky?

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

Not sure but can narrow it down

Explanation:

I don't have enough info to be sure about the answer. I don't know if there is an article or passage to read. If there is, please upload it so I can help you further. I think the answer should be either the first choice or the last choice. If you want to persuade readers that huskies sometimes steal food from humans, in order to compare the consequences, it could be to open up someone's eyes as to what they are doing is wrong. It would be like asking a thief, how would you feel if a husky snatched your filet mignon off of your plate? They would hopefully see that it wouldn't feel good, therefore they shouldn't steal because it will hurt someone else.

The option that says they want to persuade readers that humans and huskies are treated as equals, in my opinion, means that if we would give consequences to a dog such as scolding him, a human should also receive some sort of consequence.

What is not a way to create tension in a plot?

BartSMP [9]

Resolution

The resolution of the story is the end. All of the conflicts are solved and subplots are wrapped up. Tension usually builds as the conflict begins and becomes more complicated. The author does this through the sequence of events, language, conflict, sentence structure, tone, and mood. The resolution is not an area of tension in a story. If there is, usually it's so that there can be a sequel.
