Read these central ideas from "Homer: The Poet for All Ages."

The Iliad and the Odyssey were first told to the Greeks thousands of years ago.
The Iliad and the Odyssey remain popular today.

Which details from "Homer: The Poet for All Ages" best support these two central ideas about the Iliad and the Odyssey?

Select the two correct answers.


"One legend says that long ago in Greece, a blind poet, Homer, wandered from city to city and earned his living by reciting poems, including the Iliad and the Odyssey, two great epics."

"Yet these epics are as fresh and alive today as when they were first chanted to the youths and maidens of that forgotten Grecian city."

"Whatever the source of the poems, however, they must have been recited for a good many years before they were finally written down."

"They tell of a past so distant that it is scarcely known except through their verses, and of gods who have long since ceased to be worshiped.

Dear Diary

Today had been the worst day of my life. I had a fight with my best friend in school. He had never been so rude to me. Today he fought with me over a trivial issue. I had borrowed a pen from him as I had forgotten mine at home. By mistake that pen fell down from my hand and it stopped working. On realising this, he started fighting with me and persuaded me to get a new pen for him right then. I could not even understand what went wrong and I was so hurt that I could not speak anymore. Later on, a common friend told me that someone had told him some wrong things about me and had created those misunderstandings. I thought that, that wasn't the right time to talk to him. Tomorrow I'll return his pen to him and would also try to sort out the matter.

Answer the following question in 2-4 sentences: What is a trick you will use to help you determine the point of view of a story?

Answers

Answer:

Well if you determine the point of view of the story I would read it in my head and that out loud so I can understand it a little more then I would underline or highlight the sources and when I finish doing that I start typing things that come out of my head about the story.

Explanation:

Hope this helps you

Answer:

To determine the point of view of a text, I look for significant words. These include but are not limited to "I" "we" "they".

I would also look for signifiers that we know everything, such as the narrator talking to the reader specifically (2nd person [Tale of Desperaux]), or someone talking about events that happened to them (1st person [Diary Of a Wimpy Kid]), or an omniscient party talking to us through current events or a memory (3rd Person [Hunger Games])

Answer:

If this is not the "point of view" that you are looking for, please refer to the small paragraph below

To determine the point of view of a text, I would start by looking for loaded language. This may include but is not limited to "beasts" "bombarded" "delicately".

I would then connect the ideas through a summary. By then I should see their stance on the subject.

Writing Prompt- At Concord, British soldiers smashed some wooden carriages and burned them. Why the text say, "That fire changed a lot of lives."? Support your answer with evidence from the text. *

Answers

Answer:

This fire changed many lives as it showed many settlers the violence of the British and their disregard for American possessions.

Explanation:

If you are referring to the fires in the Battle of Concord, we can say that they changed the lives of many people because they made them "wake up" to British tyranny, the lack of respect and consideration for the American worker. This is because some people remained in doubt as to whether the revolution was a good idea, but after seeing the position of British soldiers, they decided to contribute to the completion of European control in their lands, promoting a strong change in life.

What were antisemitic policies that Adolfo hostler forced upon Jews living in Germany

Answers

Answer:

Ciao

Explanation:

Tiwitsgsîrsutrta

Jews were the most prosecuted group during the reign of Adolf Hitler. Over 1.47 million Jews were assassinated and massacred. The oppression was gruesome and intolerable. As explained by the Wiener Holocaust Library: “Between 1933 and 1938, over four hundred antisemitic laws were enacted.” Those laws limited each and every area of Jewish life. There were many laws, such as “Law for the Restoration of the Professional Civil Service”, this law made sure that Jews could not work in the Civil Service. Then, quickly came another law, the law of “Law Against Overcrowding in Schools and Universities” this law as mentioned by the Wiener Holocaust Library: “limited Jewish students in German schools to a maximum of 1.5% of the total intake.” Later, the “Hereditary Farm Law” was passed. That meant that Jews couldn’t own or run farms. Also, as mentioned by the Wiener Holocaust Library: “There were two main laws. The Reich Citizenship Law declared that only ‘Aryans’ were Reich citizens. As Jews were considered non-‘Aryan’, this law stripped them of their German citizenship and made them stateless in their own country.”

him Victor threw himself at Gil, ready to punch his lights out

Which of the endings to the scene would be most ironic?

A. Victor wins the fight and takes back his $500. 'Don't do that
again,' he says,

B. The cash was in Victor's pocket the whole time, but he loves it
while he is fighting Gil

C. The friendship between Gil and Victor never recovers after their
terrible fight

D. In the ensuing fight, Gil unexpectedly pleas for mercy, Victor feels
awful

Answers

Answer:

B. The cash was in Victor's pocket the whole time, but he loves it  while he is fighting Gil.

Explanation:

Irony is a rhetorical device that refers to when things did not go as expected. In an ironic situation, what is expected and what happens is the exact opposite of each other.

In the given scenario, Victor's belief that Gil took his money led to the altercation. But basing his suspicions without any proof, Victor may have made a huge mistake. Moreover, one ending that will be the most ironic is if Victor found the money in his own pocket while he'd blamed and even fought with Gil.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.

Write a summary of "Better Never to Have Met At All." Remember, a summary, a concise, complete, and accurate overview of the text. It should contain neither opinion nor analysis.
