Which literary device is used in this excerpt from Book 24 of Homer's Odyssey to describe Ulysses’s happiness?

He sate, and eyed the sun, and wish'd the night;
Slow seem'd the sun to move, the hours to roll,
His native home deep-imaged in his soul.
As the tired ploughman, spent with stubborn toil,
Whose oxen long have torn the furrow'd soil,
Sees with delight the sun's declining ray,
When home with feeble knees he bends his way
To late repast (the day's hard labour done);
So to Ulysses welcome set the sun;

Which phrase best helps to determine the meaning of the word orient as used in the passage?
Once again Samuel was starting a new school because his family had to move often for his dad's job. Samuel stood on the grassy lawn of the
campus looking at his map of the schoo's buildings, trying to orient himself. HIS Skill at map reading helped hlm quicky locate where he was in
relation to the map, and he soon plotted a route to his first class.

Answers

Answer and Explanation: According to the dictionary, the word orient has many meanings, including "to place in any definite position with reference to the points of the compass or other locations" or "to determine the position of in relation to the points of the compass; get the bearings of".

So, the phrase in the passage that best describes it is

"His skill at map reading helped him quickly locate where he was in relation to the map (...)"

Answer: "where he was in relation to the map"

Explanation:

option one: "Samuel was starting a new school" shows that he was unfamiliar with the area, but it is more of a cause than an indication of him orienting himself

option two: "stood on the grassy lawn of the  campus looking at his map""  again is more of a cause showing that he's confused, but doesn't directly explain what it means for Samuel to orient himself

option three: "where he was in relation to the map" elaborates directly on how Samuel is trying to orient himself.

The definition of "orient" is "align or position (something) relative to the points of a compass or other specified positions."

In this phase, Samuel is demonstrating what orient means because he is locating where is (in attempt to align his position) relative to the specified position in the map. This phrase and the definition of "orient" is very similar.

option four: "plotted a route to his first class" happens as an effect of orienting.

I can confirm this is correct on Edmentum.

3. Past Perfect Continuous
The fox tried very hard to get at the grapes.

Answers

Since there are no further instructions and I was not able to find this question online, I will take it that we are supposed to rewrite the sentence in the past perfect continuous tense.

Answer:

The fox had been trying very hard to get at the grapes.

Explanation:

There are a few "tricks" we can use to not mistake verb tenses. First, every time a verb tense has "perfect" in its name, that means it uses the verb "have" as an auxiliary. If it is a "past perfect", we need to use the past of "have", which is had.

Now, every time a verb tense has "continuous" in its name, that means it uses the auxiliary "be" and the main verb ending in -ing. In the case of past perfect continuous, because we already use the auxiliary "had", the verb "be" needs to be used in its past participle form, "been". Thus, we got:

had + been + verb -ing

Having that in mind, we can change the sentence in  the following way:

- The fox tried very hard to get at the grapes. --> The fox had been trying very hard to get at the grapes.

Synthesize and evaluate your thoughts and response. Researching and preparing for a discussion helps to ensure the effectiveness and efficiency of a collaborative discussion. To start forming your response, write down your initial thoughts on your chosen topic. Here are some questions you can consider when formulating your thesis: How did historical events affect American literature? (Sample question: How did the Civil War affect American Literature?) How did the Civil War transform American literature? Does literature affect history? What events were affected by literature? How does history affect current pieces of writing? Or does it only affect literature from the same period? What is your thesis? What statements and evidence will you use to support your thesis?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

1.) How did historical events affect American literature?

Historical changes often affect the literature of a place. When a historical event occurs, it is common for writers to discuss it in their own text. This allows us to understand the point of view of those who lived through those experiences.

 

2.How did the Civil War transform American literature?

The Civil War saved the union and ended slavery. In the end, it appeared to virtually all of the great writers who survived it, and to those who followed them, as a great national tragedy that had ended, like many another great tragedy, with its protagonist reborn—better, deeper, wiser than before.

 

3.Does literature affect history?

So, literature often influences the view of history we hold in a modern, retrospective light. Furthermore, events in the literary sphere can also influence the way societies in history are viewed. For instance, the majority of publications throughout the ages are sourced from white, European, usually wealthy men.

 

4.What events were affected by literature?

one event effected by literature was during the 1800’s a book called the jungle was written.

 

5.How does history affect current pieces of writing? Or does it only affect literature from the same period?

it affects our writing today. as history contains how we even invented the languages. its hard to communicate without a language. there are many languages created way back that are still used in writing today

Answer:

For the thesis:

We see constantly throughout history that American Literature is quite influential. Whether the authors wrote about society at the time, or nature, it seems like literature commonly resembles what's going on in the world around it.

The Gateway Arch, also known as the St. Louis Arch, is an important
American monument and a tribute to the American pioneer spirit. The
monument is the tallest in the country. It was designed in 1947 and
opened to the public in 1967. Seen from the east, the Arch seems to
form a frame around the city of St. Louis, Missouri, and, symbolically,
the entire western frontier of the United States. It is an enduring
symbol not only of the city of St. Louis but also of the way Americans
have moved westward since the early days of the nation.
Which option best evaluates how well the following summary reflects the

The activities and the energies of each flow over into the other. The electric current has conveyed unchecked between the two the interchanging thoughts, but the rapid river has ever bidden halt to the foot of man. It is as though the population of these cities had been brought down to the river-side, year after year, there to be taught patience; and as though, in this Bridge, after these many years, patience had had her perfect work.

What is the purpose of the subjective language in this excerpt?

A)to describe the architectural beauty of the bridge to the audience
