Read the opening to Homer's The Iliad.
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The answer is: letter B, The falling out between Achilles and the son of Atreus.

Explanation:

The conflict that happened between "Achilles" and "Agamemnon" (the son of Atreus) boils down to a woman named "Briseis." Briseis was a concubine war prize for Achilles after the Trojan war. In the story of Iliad, Agamemnon was forced by Apollo to give up Chryseis (Agamemnon's slave). As a reward to giving up her slave, he demanded that Briseis should be rewarded to him. This angered Achilles because Agamemnon was stripping him of his reward. Thus,  this caused a war between them that killed many lives.

Clearly, the opening to Homer's Iliad shows the falling out between Achilles and Agamemnon (the son of Atreus).

After reading the passage from the Barrio boy, describe how the author uses connotations and figurative language to make his exp
balu736 [363]

Answer:

After reading the passage, I see how the author uses connotations and figurative language to make his experience come to life. The author uses a mix of postive and negitive connotations like "fast" as a positive connotation, and "lighting" as a negitive connotation. Though the author is using negitive connotation in the paragraph, the story itself is not meant to be negitive, rather exciting and uses figurtative language as a description. This is expressed through the phrases like, "electric fight" but the author hints at what they mean through the following context clues like, " for us to turn on and off as we please." Which indicated a light swich, and the electric that "fighting" through it. This make it feel like not just a light swich or power, but an electric storm that comes to life!
