1. Why are the weapons stored out of reach? From the odyssey

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The weapons were stored out of reach so that when Odysseus attacks the suitors, they will not be able to get their hands on any weapon and defend themselves.

Explanation:

Homer's epic narrative "The Odyssey," tells the story of the protagonist Odysseus and his return back from the Trojan War. Though the war had been over long ago, the journey that Odysseus and his men took to get back to Ithaca involves numerous encounters with both gods and men.

In book XIX, Odysseus had returned to his palace and seen the suitors and the turmoil they have created. So, he ordered his son Telemachus to get things ready so that they will execute his plan to secretly attack them while they're unprepared. He asked him to remove the weapons and armors inside, "Make some excuse when the suitors ask you why you have removed it. Say that you have taken it to be out of the way of the smoke, inasmuch as it is no longer what it was when Ulysses went away, but has become soiled and begrimed with soot. Add to this more particularly that you are afraid Jove may set them on to quarrel over their wine, and that they may do each other some harm which may disgrace both banquet and wooing, for the sight of arms sometimes tempts people to use them". This way, when they attack the suitors, they will be left helpless and not reach for any weapon to defend themselves.

“A sharp tongue is the only edged tool that grows keener with constant use”

Answers

Answer:

Tools that are sharp (eg knives) get dull as you use them, but when you speak sharply (in a bitter or critical way) often, you overall tend to speak that way more. So, instead of getting less sharp, your tongue is getting sharper.

It highlights the end of the long stretch of darkness that Columbus sailed through.


It explains how in the morning light, the men were able to see land.


It creates a mental image of the sun shining through the clouds.

Answers

Answer:

B) It emphasizes how Columbus's discovery led to the beginning of a new world.

Explanation:

The stars were used by sailors to help them navigate their way as they were moving across the ocean. In this case, the stars are sources of enlightenment and they help lead the way and show what is ahead.  

They help emphasize the discovery of Columbus since it shows the New World was not discovered before but it is through the sailing of Columbus as he was finding the route to the Far East that led to the discovery of the Americas. The Americas was not discovered before meaning there was no light or knowledge of it that describes why the stars are gone. But now the discovery helps shed light on people and they came to know of the Americas.

Poem:

Read the poem.

Columbus

by Joaquin miller

behind him lay the gray Azores,

behind the gates of Hercules;

before him not the ghost of shores,

before him only shoreless seas.

the good mate said: "now must we pray,

for lo! the very stars are gone.

brave Admiral, speak, what shall I say? "

"why, say, 'sail on! sail on! and on! '"

"my men grow mutinous day by day;

my men grow ghastly wan and weak."

the stout mate thought of home; a spray

of salt, a wave washed his swarthy cheek.

"What shall I say, brave Admiral, say,

if we sight naught but seas at dawn? "

"why, you shall say at break of day,

'sail on! sail on! sail on! and on! '"

they sailed and sailed, as winds might blow,

until at last, the blanched mate said:

"why, now not even God would know

should I and all my men fall dead?

these very winds forget their way,

for god from these dread seas is gone.

now speak, brave Admiral, speak and say"—

he said: "sail on! sail on! and on! "

they sailed. they sailed. then spake the mate:

"this mad sea shows his teeth tonight.

he curls his lip, he lies in wait,

with lifted teeth, as if to bite!

brave admiral, say but one good word:

what shall we do when hope is gone? "

the words leaped like a leaping sword:

"sail on! sail on! sail on! and on! "

then, pale and worn, he kept his deck,

and peered through darkness. ah, that night

of all dark nights! and then a speck—

a light! a light! a light! a light!

it grew, a starlit flag unfurled!

it grew to be time's burst of dawn.

he gained a world; he gave that world

its grandest lesson: "on! sail on! "

Why is ‘for a second repeated in the paragraph beginning 'Conor frowned, and for a second the whole room seemed to get darker'? In A MONSTER CALLS

Answers

Answer:

The repetition of "for a second" is done to emphasize how quickly Conor's sensations and emotions (which lasted for a second) were felt.

Explanation:

In "A monster calls" we are presented with the following paragraph:"Conor frowned, and for a second the whole room seemed to get darker, for a second it felt like the whole house was shaking, for a second it felt like he could reach down and tear the whole floor right out of the dark and loamy earth."

In this paragraph we can see the use of the figure of speech called Anaphor, which allows a word, or a group of words, to be repeated to emphasize some message that the author wishes to convey. In this paragraph we can see the repetition of "for a second", which was done to emphasize the speed with which Conor felt emotions and sensations.

Answers

Hello there,

‘Eeny, meeny, miny, moe . . .’

It is thirty years since FBI special agent Atlee Pine’s twin sister, Mercy, was taken from the room they shared as young children. Notorious serial killer Daniel James Tor, was caught and convicted of other murders, and while there’s no proof, Atlee believes he knows what happened to Mercy. Tor still resides in a high-security prison in Colorado.

Assigned to the remote wilds of the western United States, Atlee has never stopped the search for her sister, and, wracked with survivor’s guilt, she has spent her life hunting down those who hurt others. She will always ask herself, ‘Why her, and not me?’.

Now, Atlee is called in to investigate a case in the Grand Canyon when a mule is found dead with strange carvings on its body, and its rider missing. She knows about killers and perhaps understands them better than any profiler in the FBI, but it soon becomes clear that she will need to put her skills to the ultimate test in this investigation.

It seems that Atlee will now have to confront a new monster.

And face the one of her nightmares.
