The Cyclops is compared to Zeus because of his size. The Cyclops is compared to Zeus because of his power. The Cyclops is compared to a mast, or flagpole, because of his surrender.

QUESTION 2
horrorfan [7]

Answer: The three correct options are:

1.Ariana got lost on the way to the festival; she ended up twenty miles from where we planned to meet.

3.Ariana got lost on the way to the festival, and she ended up twenty miles from where we planned to meet

4.Ariana got lost on the way to the festival. She ended up twenty miles from where we planned to meet.

Explanation: 1. Use a semicolon between two closely related independent clauses. 3. Use a comma before a coordinating conjunction such as <em>and, but, or, & yet. </em>4. Separate the two clauses into two sentences. Use a period at the end of the first sentence. Start the new sentence with a capital letter.

2. Is incorrect. It is an example of a "comma splice" where a comma is used instead of the other correct options.
