Why does Odysseus send out 3 men. What does he know about human behavior?

English
1 answer:
topjm [15]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

When they arrived on the island of the Lotus-Eaters, Odysseus sent 3 men to scout the island for human life. After days of their absence, Odysseus himself scoured the island looking for them. He found the three amongst the natives. These natives were friendly and hospitable. They even shared their "Lotus" food with the 3 scouts. The food, however, was some sort of drug that made them forget all about their mission and their quest to go back to Greece and made them want to drown themselves in ecstasy on the island. Odysseus had to wrestle with all three of them and drag them back to the ship. He had to tie them down to the barrels of the ship and sail away as fast as the crew can.

What does this tell us about Odysseus? He would never forsake his crew members. He easily could have left the three there on the island and have  fewer  people to feed and consume their meager food rations. But Odysseus, being the ideal leader, took all measures just to save his crew members whom he knew depended on him.

What does the quote, "It forces you to slow down and smell the proverbial roses." mean? This is about letter writing.
Gwar [14]

Answer and Explanation:

We can tell from the tone of this writer that he/she really appreciates letter writing, as opposed to typing. Essentially, it's saying that when you handwrite something, there's an intimate component to it that makes the piece of literary work feel totally your own. This is opposed to the mechanical feel of typing, where everything is one font and you're simply clacking out the letters. Instead, with letter handwriting, you're slower at it (because handwriting something is quite slow), which allows you to enjoy your writing a little more and "smell the proverbial roses" by including little details here and there that truly make the piece a very self-connected one.

Hope this helps!

I'm wondering if the sentence has a typo or it is really written as: The most amazing vacations are <u>to</u> places with...
Most sentences don't have that "to" in that part of the sentence or have it at all. 
If that is the problem, then it looks like your question can be answered!

How did Montresor ensure that no servers were around to witness the crime in the cask of Amontillado
iren [92.7K]

Montresor tells all of his servants that they must stay in the house. He also tells him that he is going out and will not return until much later. Since the story takes place during a popular festival, the servants want to leave and join the partying. Montresor knows that if he tells the servants he won't be back for a while the servants will leave the house anyways. Since he is not there to make sure that they are doing what he's asked, the servants will go off and do whatever they want.
