Answer:

"He was the finest young man that she had ever seen, he had given her three golden apples, and he had risked his life to win her."

Explanation:

The Greek mythology of Atalanta tells the story of the human huntress who was so adamant about being victorious over everyone and staying unmarried forever. But when Hippomenes came and participated in the competition for her hand in marriage, she 'intentionally' let him win so as to be married to him.

In the given excerpt, Atlanta was kept distracted by Hippomenes by using the three magical golden apples given by Aphrodite. Though distracted by the golden apples, she was also a bit interested in Hippomenes that she did not mind letting him win. She observed,<em> "He was the finest young man that she had ever seen, he had given her three golden apples, and he had risked his life to win her." </em>

Thus, the correct answer to the question is the third option.

One of the most common problems today that is killing people, all over the world, is smoking. Many people start this horrible habit because of stress, personal issues and high blood pressure. Some people began showing off or some people wanted to enjoy it. One cigarette can result in smoking others, which can lead to major addiction.

masha68 [24]

Sanitation

With the rapid influx of people into New York City, sanitation would be a major issue for people living in New York City in the mid-to late 1800s. Proper sanitation is a need because without it disease is easily spread. Overpopulation creates a strain on any sanitation system, and in the mid to late 1800s, there was really no system for sanitation in New York City. All of the other options were not a major issue for people during this time period as they were not seen as necessities, only luxuries.
