Answer and Explanation:

As you may already know, "Odyssey" is an epic story written, probably, by Homer. The story takes place in Greece, during the Trojan War and we learn about the achievements and adventures of the hero Odysseus and his attempts to return home.

In part I of this story, we are introduced to topics such as cunning and fidelity. Cunning is presented through Odisseuy's deeds, which is the main characteristic of this hero. Cunning is presented at all times in the work, pointing Odysseus as someone who is courageous, daring and intelligent. Fidelity, on the other hand, is presented through Odysseus' remorse for not being faithful to his wife during many moments in his adventures.

Part II of this work presents other themes such as character flaws and hospitality. The character flaw is also a great feature of Odysseus and shows how imperfect the hero is, in addition to humanizing him and allowing readers to identify with him. The hospitality is due to Odisseu's wife, who needs to receive in her home many suitors who bother her and destroy her family's patrimony.

Is it true that a snake wont die till the sun goes down?
Inessa [10]

<span>There is some truth to this myth backed up by science explanation. A snake’s nervous system will still be functional for approximately 10 to 12 hours after they are pronounced dead. So probably that is where the myth or saying “a snake wont die til the sun goes down” came from. Because 10 to 12 hours is enough time from the morning for the sun to set down, and the nervous system will be completely dysfunctional and only will be then that the snake is truly dead. So the best way to ensure the snake does not bite you or attack you is to kill it, cut off its head and bury it so that its nervous system will be readily dysfunctional.</span>
