What are the guard's feelings about returning to speak to creon? Why does he refer to himself as "the lucky man"?

Answer:

The guard felt he had broken his oath to not come to the king's presence again, but this time, it was on good tidings. He had come to tell the good news of the capture of the culprit who had disobeyed the King's orders.

He referred to himself as "the lucky man" because he was to bring the good news of the capture to the king.

Explanation:

Sophocles' play "Antigone" revolves around the story of Antigone and how she bravely opposed the king to do right by her brother. The story deals with themes of family, loyalty, love, pride, tyranny, etc.

The sentry/ guard had promised not to come to the king's presence "But whether caught or not . . . you won't see me coming here again." But now, he was only too happy to bring the good news to the king, the good news being capturing whoever has disobeyed the king's order. The culprit was Antigone, who the guards had caught red-handed trying to give her brother, the dead Polyneicês, a proper burial despite King Creon's order that he's a traitor and be left without a proper burial.

He referred to himself as "the lucky man" because he is bringing the good news of the capture of the culprit who had disobeyed the king's order.

To the whole nation's astonishment, the young lawyer managed to convince the judge to................Daltrey of all charges.

a. launch

Directions: Read the passage, and answer the question that follows. Have you ever considered how tedious an action or suspense movie would be without sound effects? Sounds are a mechanism for building suspense. The snap of a breaking twig in the forest lets you know the main character is not alone. A staged fight scene seems real when you hear the sound of a hard whack. Even with all the options modern technology offers many sound effects are created using common materials. Sounds effects artists produce the sound of crackling flames by crinkling wax paper. Shaking a sheet of aluminum foil creates a loud rumble of thunder In a fight scene fake punches seem to connect. The sounds of fighting are produced by sound effects artists who pummel cushions or wet their hands and clap them together. Finding a way to create just the right sound is a big accomplishment. Sound effects artists are an adventure movie's real stars

From Enemy to Friend

Wolves and dogs are closely related. Most scientists believe that dogs’ ancestors were wolves. Through time, wolves became tame enough to live with humans and help them. The change from wolf to dog was probably a result of careful breeding. Early humans allowed only the friendliest wolf pups to remain near them. This ensured that, over time, the wolves that stayed with groups of humans became tamer and tamer.



Wolves were influenced by their relationship with humans. So, they slowly became what we know today as dogs. They became adept at protecting and herding sheep and other animals whereas their ancestors would have made a meal of them. This ability made dogs very useful. However, although they are quite similar, wolves and dogs are also quite different.



Wolves are wild animals that live in packs, or groups, and eat only meat. They find their food by hunting. The most common noise they make is a howl. They may also bark, growl, yelp, and whine. All wolves look very much alike, although their colors vary slightly. They are large, slender, powerful animals with long legs and tails. Wolves are quite wary of people; they don’t trust them. They attack people only on rare occasions, usually when they are startled.

A small dog is looking up at a large wolf.

Dogs, on the other hand, are tame. They have been influenced by people for many, many years, which has made them quite different from wolves. For one thing, dogs eat vegetables and grains as well as meat products. They are much more likely to bark than to howl. Their sizes range from gigantic animals that are much larger than wolves to tiny animals that can sit comfortably in a cereal bowl. Large dogs are not only taller than wolves, but they are much heavier, and their appearances can vary as much as their sizes.



However, the main difference is found in dogs’ relationship with humans, whom they usually prefer to be near. The main effect of this is that most dogs are friendly to people. Some show hostility, but almost always only to strangers. Although most dogs are no smarter than wolves, they can certainly be trained more easily. They rarely hunt prey to eat and depend on their owners to supply them with food. This reliance on people just adds to the closeness of the relationship.



Wolves and dogs both pant to stay cool. They both can hear and smell very well, and they both can run silently. They even have the same number of teeth: 42. However, no matter how similar wolves and dogs may seem to be, wolves can never be made into a pet. They are also worthless as guard animals because they are shy. Domestic animals, such as cats and small dogs, are in more danger from wolves than humans are, but small children can also be in danger. The Big Bad Wolf may exist only in fairy tales, but real wolves can be as much of a threat, especially if they are not understood.

This question has two parts. First, answer part A. Then, answer part B.

A.
by describing how wolves find ways to survive

B.
by comparing and contrasting wolves and dogs

C.

Most people remember Gandhi and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. as reformers who practiced non-violent forms of protest and advocacy. Both effectively changed the popular opinion about emotional issues for their countries and brought in a wave of change that was long overdue. But the practice of non-violent protest, or civil disobedience, started long before either Gandhi or King. It began with a quiet, shy poet who is best known for writing a lot about a pond.

Henry David Thoreau lived from 1817 until 1862, mainly in the area of Concord, Massachusetts. The issue that would tear the country apart in the 1860s had already begun dividing the nation. Thoreau was only 14 when Nat Turner led the slave rebellion in Virginia and was later hanged. In his late 20s, Thoreau began speaking against slavery in public, echoing the voices of freedmen like Frederick Douglass and Lewis Hayden.

Thoreau believed that a government that supported slavery was corrupt and immoral. He was also deeply suspicious of government. For these and other reasons, Thoreau refused to pay his poll tax for a number of years. The poll tax was a legal tax owed by every person. It was basically a tax on one's body. After not paying for years, he was at last arrested. He spent only one night in jail, however, as a relative paid the tax for him. He was reportedly furious that any tax was paid on his behalf.

It was this experience that Thoreau wrote about in an essay called "Civil Disobedience." In this essay, he argued that being moral and just came before allegiance to government. He wrote “If the machine of government is of such a nature that it requires you to be the agent of injustice to another, then, I say, break the law." He also felt that voting was not enough to ensure that the right thing be done. He wrote that "even voting for the right is doing nothing for it… A wise man will not leave the right to the mercy of chance…" He felt that one had a moral responsibility to resist unjust laws.
