Her sleeping head with its great gelid mass serpents torpidly astir burned into the mirroring shield a scathing image dire as hated truth the accepts at last and fester on. I struck. The shield flashed bare. Yet even as I lifted up the head and started from the place of gazing silences and terrored stone, I thirsted to destroy. None could have passed me them no garland-bearing girl, no priest or staring boy-and lived. PLEASE HELP ME!!! ;-;

Answer:

Explanation:

   This poem is about the death of Medusa from Perseus' point of view. It starts off with Medusa sleeping, and Perseus can see her in the mirrored part of his shield. He cuts her head off with his sword, and the shield doesn't show her reflection anymore. Then Perseus takes the head and leaves the cave. As Perseus leaves, he gets angry and feels the need to destroy or kill things. Whenever Perseus passes by someone, he shows them the head and turns them to stone, no matter who they are.

           One example of a literary device in the poem is "serpents torpidly astir". This is an oxymoron because torpidly and astir contradict each other. This quote also adds imagery to the poem, by describing how the snakes move. Another example is "great gelid", which is an alliteration. The tone of the poem starts out calm, as it describes Medusa sleeping, then turns angrier after Perseus cuts Medusa's head off.

A server's permit is revoked after serving alcohol to an underage guest.
Hoochie [10]

The correct answer is; criminal liability.

Further Explanation:

A server can face jail time and being fined for serving alcohol to an underage guest. The most likely charge they will face is a criminal liability charge. Since the servers are trained about serving alcohol and checking identification they are liable for doing their job.

Serving any alcohol product to someone underage is illegal in the United States. The age that a person can legally buy alcohol is 21 years of age. If the server has given an underage person alcohol and that person drives and is in an accident the server is going to be charged also, because they are the ones responsible for serving the underage person. In addition to being charged with a crime, the person can be sued, banned from working in an establishment that has alcohol, and fired from their job.

podryga [215]

Answer:

Stress inoculation training

Explanation:

SIT is a type of cognitive behavior therapy. This is used for a different disorder such as post-traumatic stress disorder. For a particular disease, we use a specific vaccination, as in the same way if we get some type of stress we used SIT therapy to avoid the stress.
