Answer:
gods and humans
fate and free will
Explanation:
Odyssey is a tale of the Battle of Troy and how the victorious King Odysseus on his voyage home encountered several obstacles.
There were conflicts between the gods and humans and the gods interfered in the story at various times. For example, Poseidon sends a mighty wave after Odysseus and his crew after they blinded Cyclops which resulted in the death of Odysseus' men and ship carrying precious cargo.
Athena also helped Odysseus on his way home to Ithaca and helped his son Telemachus to defeat the various suitors that came for the hand of Penelope, Odysseus' wife.
Fate and free will is another theme that is prevalent throughout the tale of Odyssey. Some characters are destined to be destroyed by the gods while some have the fate of being lucky, and favored by the gods.

Write a STORY that illustrates the saying: He who laughs last, laughs longest
When I was a teenager I dreamed of winning a computer of the highest technology. I was passionate about technology and I loved seeing all the configurations of the launchings of the big industries. As my family couldn't afford this type of device, I decided to find a part-time job that would allow me to save money and buy the device I wanted.
The job I found was to be the mascot of a fast food restaurant in my city. I would have to wear a costume, which attracted some boys who were studying with me who went to my job just to laugh at my situation. Despite the shame I was not discouraged because my goal was greater than all of that.
My salary was extremely low and I couldn't get enough money for the computer I wanted, so I bought a used computer that was in a bad state, which made my school friends laugh even more at me, form nicknames and let me even more ashamed and with low self-esteem.
I was very discouraged, but decided to occupy my mind not to think about frustration, so I decided to renovate and repair the computer that I bought, I felt very good doing it and I managed to make it work efficiently. I started to fix other things and take courses on electronics that made my skills even better.
High school was pretty torturous because of the jokes about me, but eventually it ended and I got a place at the university of my study, where I majored in electronic engineering. Over time and a lot of dedication I got a job in the computer industry that I wanted so much in my teens and now I not only have access to all of them, but also participate in the elaboration and manufacture of each one. Nowadays I laugh at the jokes that my friends told me, I don't know what the future has in store for them, but for me it has a lot of success.

I ONLY HAVE TODAY TO ANSWER THIS Which TWO parts of this excerpt from Leo Tolstoy’s The Death of Ivan Ilyich reflect the author’s opinion that the members of the rising middle class can never throw off their emotional masks?
.
At certain moments after prolonged suffering he wished most of all (though he would have been ashamed to confess it) for someone to pity him as a sick child is pitied
.
He longed to be petted and comforted
.
He knew he was an important functionary, that he had a beard turning grey, and that therefore what he longed for was impossible.
.
his colleague Shebek would come, and instead of weeping and being petted, Ivan Ilyich would assume a serious, severe, and profound air, and by force of habit would express his opinion on a decision of the Court of Cassation and would stubbornly insist on that view.
.
Whether it was morning or evening, Friday or Sunday, made no difference, it was all just the same: the gnawing, unmitigated, agonizing pain, never ceasing for an instant, the consciousness of life inexorably waning but not yet extinguished, the approach of that ever dreaded and hateful Death which was the only reality,

For those who may think I exaggerate the contrast
between the former river canyon and the present man-
made impoundment, I suggest a trip on Lake Powell
followed immediately by another boat trip on the river
below the dam. Take a boat from Lee's Ferry up the river to
within sight of the dam, then shut off the motor and allow
yourself the rare delight of a quiet, effortless drifting down
the stream. In that twelve-mile stretch of living green,
singing birds, flowing water and untarnished canyon walls
– sights and sounds a million years older and infinitely
lovelier than the roar of motorboats - you will redisco
small and imperfect sampling of the kind of experience
that was taken away from everybody when the oligarch
and politicians condemned our river for purposes of their

own.

Which rhetorical technique is Abbey using in the underlined section of this excerpt?
A. Pathos
B. Ethos
C. Logos
D. Ad hominem
Answer: A. Pathos
Explanation:
Pathos is a rhetorical technique that appeals to an audience's emotions. To persuade them, an argument that creates an emotional reaction is made. Especially used in literature to spark specific feelings from readers. In this case, Abbey applies it by describing the "living green, singing birds" and how lovely the "sights and sounds" of the river are in order to make her point.

What is the overall tone created by the speaker?
Answer:
I do not have the text you are referring to but I can explain what the tone is so that you can identify it by yourself.
Explanation:
When we talk about tone, we are referring to the way in which a writer addresses a topic or addresses his readers.
The way to express it will be through his own opinion, choosing certain types of phrases or words to convey this opinion.
In short, every text will present a theme, but the tone is the way in which that theme is presented through the words the author chooses to do it.

How does President Reagan establish ethos as a fellow American who shares in the loss?
-by reminding listeners that he is president
-by choosing words like we and us
-by mentioning the astronauts’ service
-by addressing the astronauts’ families
-by speaking of discovery and truth
answer: by choosing words like we and us
Answer:
He chooses commonly used words.
He chooses words that inspire.
He chooses words related to exploration.
Explanation:
The support that President Reagan got at the time of establishing ethos as a fellow American who shares in the loss is by choosing words like we and us. Hence, option B is correct.
What does the ethos mean?The collective spirit or character of a culture or society is known as its ethos; these are the core or underlying attitudes and ideas that shape the norms and practises of that culture or society.
The speaker makes an effort to establish his or her dependability, credibility, and trustworthiness with the listeners. Using first-person plural pronouns, the speaker strives to establish a connection with the listeners (we, us).
Using emotive language, sensory imagery, and anecdotes, the speaker uses pathos to engage the audience's emotions. By using phrases like "we" and "us," President Reagan was able to gain support when he established his ethos as a fellow American who shares in the loss.
Therefore, Option B is correct.

What is the significance of alcohol in The Jungle's Packingtown? (Chapters 7, 14, 19)
Answer:
From the earliest chapters, Sinclair describes men purposely seeking out or simply not being able to avoid alcohol. Certainly it is a cheap and easily accessible escape from the horrors of their lives. However, many men drink because bars are the only place in Packingtown to get warm, and men are only allowed to sit in the warm bars if they are drinking. These warm bars also provide food, but again, only to drinking customers. In addition to providing food and warmth, bars are relatively clean in comparison to the filthy, blood-soaked killing floors, which are the only other places men can eat their meals during the workday. Alcohol is yet another way for businesses to exploit the basic needs of hardworking men, perpetuating their struggles within the evil capitalist structure. Bars are businesses like any other, seeking to make as much money as possible. In order to do so, they must encourage men to drink, despite the fact that alcohol offers no nutritional value, is expensive, and weakens the body and mind, rendering exploited men like Jurgis less able to achieve their American Dream. Although Jurgis abstains at first, he begins drinking to ease his physical pain after his grueling work in the fertilizer plant. He also uses it to dampen his emotional pain. As soon as Ona dies, for example, he sets out to "get drunk." Through the working class's relationship with alcohol, Sinclair suggests that it is another form of exploitation (by tavern owners, who are in cahoots with the slaughterhouse and the police) and that in a more perfect society, men would not turn to it in the first place.

Describe a time that something totally unexpected happened.
Answer:
Explanation:
as I went to sleep last night, I heard the doorbell. I wondered who might it be. I slowly left my bed and walked towards the door. And as I opened it ....Ii felt a bit pain on my head ....I shouted as loud as I could ...and I realized that it was a dream..it was quite unexpected for a girl like me to shout while dreaming..............
Answer:
Ok these are both very scary but did happen to me so you can believe or not.
Explanation:
The first one was when I was helping my dad last month fill in the walls with insulation. When we started pumping the insulation in, we say a whole bunch of dead animals like crucified on the wall and there heads looking at our living room. Our pets never went in the living room. We later found out the previous owner was psycho and had neighbor reports of loud noises.
The second one is when my friend went to a Satanic Temple in Salem Massachusetts. One time, I went with him as a guest. They were doing there "hocus-pocus" stuff I laughed cuz it was so weird and funny. On the of the leaders asked me to go up to the stand and he did his "devil thing".

I’m a story about gladiators, which character is most clearly round? A. Camilla, the stranger from Gaul who is trying to make a new life in Rome B. Flavius, the uncaring emperor who eats grapes and bullies his subjects C. Cecilia, the fierce animal tamer who delights in unleashing the lions D. Lucius, the gladiator who lives for bloodshed and wants nothing but glory
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
A round character is one that we have a lot of detail on. A flat character is one that we do not know much about (things like backstory, feelings, etc.)
Usually the round character is the main character. Out of these answer options, Camilla looks like the main character because stories usually aren't focused on villains (B and D) and Cecilia seems like more of a side character, so I believe Camilla is the main character.
She also seems the most round because it says that she is from Gaul and she wants to make a new life in Rome. We already have much more backstory to her than the others, so the the round character is A. Camilla, the stranger from Gaul who is trying to make a new life in Rome.
Have a wonderful day! :D
Answer: Camilla, the stranger from Gaul who is trying to make a new life in Rome

While Ulysses shows himself active and eager in every way to be going home from Calypso’s island, discuss, in no less than seventy-five words, why he shows himself more mature and growing in character in his dealings with Nausicaa and her servant girls than he does when he’s battling Neptune’s storm.
Ulysses went through many experiences before meeting Nausicaa and his servants. These experiences showed him that not everything is resolved on the basis of force, but many things are resolved in a less radical way, especially when you are in a strange territory, alone and without allies.
The moment when Ulysses faces the Neptune storm is a moment when he is proud, proud and arrogant for being a great and victorious warrior. At that moment Ulysses is immature and this provokes the wrath of the gods. However, when he encounters Nausicaa, that arrogance is no longer so evident, due to all the difficulties he faced along the way and which became much more difficult due to his immature behavior. That is why at that moment, Ulysses decides to act cautiously, which shows a great maturation of the character. This caution is the result of the unpredictability of the region and of the events, which Ulysses has learned to respect.
Select the correct answer. Read this excerpt from President John F. Kennedy’s inaugural address on January 20, 1961: In the long history of the world, only a few generations have been granted the role of defending freedom in its hour of maximum danger. I do not shrink from this responsibility—I welcome it. I do not believe that any of us would exchange places with any other people or any other generation. The energy, the faith, the devotion which we bring to this endeavor will light our country and all who serve it—and the glow from that fire can truly light the world. And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you—ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man. Based on the author’s use of language, what is the purpose of this speech? A. to motivate people everywhere to uphold the freedom of humankind B. to motivate Americans to strive for the development of their nation C. to cultivate a sense of diversity among the American people D. to foster a feeling of happiness and unity across people and nations
Answer:
B. to motivate Americans to strive for the development of their nation
Explanation:
The correct option is B. The purpose of this speech is to motivate Americans to strive for the development of their nation.
Most presidents use their first address to the nation to outline their vision for the country and their objectives. In his inaugural address, President John F. Kennedy declared in 1961 that "we shall bear any burden, endure any hardship, support any friend, and confront any adversary to insure the survival and success of liberty."
What was the tone of Kennedy's inaugural address?The American citizens and anyone else who required confidence that their nation had not been totally destroyed during the Cold War were the target audience for the Inaugural Address. He tried to indicate hope and aspirations for the country throughout the speech by using a very optimistic tone.
"My fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you—ask what you can do for your country," he said in his brief, fourteen-minute inaugural address, is the one statement that stands out the most. This appeal to civic service struck a chord with the "new generation of Americans—born in this century, tempered by war," as Kennedy put it.
Thus, the purpose of this speech is to motivate Americans to strive for the development of their nation. In his inaugural address, President John F. Kennedy declared in 1961.
