I believe the correct answer is It compares an experience to a method of torture.
The author is trying to compare slavery to hell - he isn't comparing it to the actual physical gate, but rather what lies beyond the gate. He thinks slavery, and what slaves had to go through is akin to hell, or at least our depiction of it.

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

B.He wants to become famous for his battlefield accomplishments so that his name will be remembered forever

Explanation:

Achilles who was the greatest warrior of his time chose to join King Agamemnon and his allies in the battle of Troy, not because of revenge or because of his obedience to the King, but because of his quest for glory and fame.

When Achilles was nine years old, it was prophesied that he would die in battle as a hero against the Trojans, and even though his mother did her best to avert this prophecy, Achilles chose to go for glory, even though he knew it would cost him his life.

Which of these was a consequence for farmers during the Dust Bowl?
Dominik [7]
The Dust Bowl was a period in the thirties when severe dust storms devastated all crops and other ecological components in several American and Canadian soils. This was partly caused by drought as well as the farmers' improper practices.

Because at least a year's worth of crops were gone, the bank cannot buy them and there would be no way for the value of their crops to increase either. Also, they would not be aiming to covet each other's land since most of the land eroded that period, too.

As a consequence for farmers, the government took their land. This was also done by the government in an effort to mitigate the damages done to the areas.
