Answer:

  • Hera was the Greek goddess of marriage and the queen of Olympus. ...
  • Poseidon was god of the sea. ...
  • Hades was the god of the underworld and king of the dead.
  • Aphrodite was the goddess of love and beauty, and the protector of sailors.
  • Apollo was the god of music and healing

Explanation:

Zeus (Roman name: Jupiter)

The most powerful of all, Zeus was god of the sky and the king of Olympus. His temper affected the weather, and he threw thunderbolts when he was unhappy. He was married to Hera but had many other lovers. His symbols include the oak and the thunderbolt.

Hera (Roman name: Juno)

Hera was the Greek goddess of marriage and the queen of Olympus. She was Zeus's wife and sister; many myths tell of how she sought revenge when Zeus betrayed her with his lovers. Her symbols include the peacock and the cow.

Poseidon (Roman name: Neptune)

Poseidon was god of the sea. He was the most powerful god except for his brother, Zeus. He lived in a beautiful palace under the sea and caused earthquakes when he was in a temper. His symbols include the horse and the trident (a three-pronged pitchfork). The sea god features prominently in stories about the Trojan War, due to a grudge he bore against the former king Laomedon of Troy. He is the father of Polyphemus, the cyclops in the Odyssey, and of the demigod Triton.

Hades (Roman name: Pluto)

Hades was the god of the underworld and king of the dead. His name is often used interchangeably as that of the Greek underworld. He was the brother of Zeus and the husband of Persephone, Demeter's daughter, whom he kidnapped.

Aphrodite (Roman name: Venus)

Aphrodite was the goddess of love and beauty, and the protector of sailors. She may have been the daughter of Zeus and the Titan Dione, or she may have risen from the sea on a shell. Her symbols include the myrtle tree and the dove.

. Read the sentence and identify the (antecedent) that corresponds with the bolded pronoun. (Several) of the guests wandered in
sladkih [1.3K]
Okay, an antecedent of a pronoun is always a noun, so immediately you can reject the words late and wandered as incorrect answers, because late is an adjective, and wandered is a verb. This leaves us with two nouns, guests and party. Obviously, the pronoun several refers to the noun guests, so the correct answer is guests - that is the antecedent that corresponds with the pronoun. Several guests, not several parties.

Butoxors [25]

C) It is ironic that the young married women have so much, and yet feel quiet unhappy.

Irony is when the opposite of what is expected happens. The entire passage describes how easy life is for the young married women in Floral Heights and other prosperous areas of Zenith. One would expect the women to be happy that they want for nothing and only have to work for two hours a day. They can spend their days in leisure, enjoying the company of their friends. However, at the end it is revealed that they are actually unhappy. This is the opposite of what is expected and therefore, ironic.
