Answer:

Based on the epic simile, the reader should envision Penelope as a queen who is <u>D) righteous</u>.

Explanation:

By definition, a righteous person is someone upstanding, decent. Someone who does everything according to what is morally correct. In the excerpt we are studying here, Penelope is described as a righteous woman. She has no fault, no blame, since she constantly does what is right. Her name is talked of in association with honor, equity, fruitfulness.

Which theme would best describe Proctor's final decision in the play?
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

First options: Personal honor determines a person's self-worth and value.

Explanation:

"The Crucible" (1953) is Arthur Miller's tragedy play. The play dramatized and fictionalized version of Salem Witchcraft trials of 1692-93.

John Proctor is play's protagonist who along with many other villagers and his wife is wrongly accused of performing witchcraft which in Puritan society of that time was a crime punishable by death.

In the earlier part of the play John Proctor hides his adultery with Abigail because of public dishonor. But when he later realizes that it is not public honor what matter most rather personal integrity and honor. So, he admits his crime in front of court.

In later part of trial he is asked to confess publicly in written for his involvement in witchcraft, and save his life. He accepts it with reluctance, but when court asks him to wrongly name and testify against other members of the village, he refuses and tears part the confession document. He accepts death only because of personal and religious integrity. At this point of the play he is aloof from public honor or dishonor and wants to redeem himself by not accusing anyone wrongly. Proctor understands his preference of personal and religious integrity will take him to heaven after his death.

This thought is also expressed by Elizabeth (his wife) when she refuses to persuade Proctor to accept court's offer of accusing others and saving himself. She says,<em> </em><em>“He have his goodness now. God forbid I take it from him!”</em>

Father earns money for us all change into passive voice.​
Troyanec [42]

To change into passive voice you must make the object that is receiving the action (In this case that is "money" since the "money" is "earned") the subject instead.  

Another think to keep in mind:

When a sentence is passive it's because the action is being indirectly done. In this case, once the sentence becomes passive, it will seem like the "money" is doing to "earning", but we know that it is actually the "father"  

The money was earned by Father for all of us

Hope this helped!

What did scops help to preserve?<br> a. poetry<br> b. tradition<br> c. English<br> d. entertainment
Snowcat [4.5K]

The right answer is a. poetry.

Scops were professional poets that brought the epic poems to life. Playing harp, the scop would chant in a clear voice that carried over the shouts and laughter of the crowd, captivating them for hours on end with tales of courage, high drama, and tragedy. These epic poems were an oral art form: memorized and performed, not written down. Later, literacy spread through Britain, and poems were more likely to be recorded. Thus, only a fraction of Anglo-Saxon poetry has survived, in manuscripts produced centuries after the poems were originally composed.
