Read the passage from The Odyssey - Amphimedon. "Amphimedon, What ruin brought you into this undergloom? All in a body, picked m

en, and so young? One could not better choose the kingdom's pride. Were you at sea, aboard ship, and Poseidon blew up a dire wind and foundering waves, or cattle-raiding, were you, on the mainland, or in a fight for some stronghold, or women, when the foe hit you to your mortal hurt? Tell me, answer my question. Guest and friend I say I am of yours—or do you not remember I visited your family there?” From the way that Agamemnon talks to Amphimedon, the reader can infer that Agamemnon A)is disturbed by Amphimedon.

Answer:

A)is disturbed by Amphimedon

Explanation:

From the passage, Agamemnon is asking Amphimedon what brought him to Hades and why he came to the "undergloom" in a body so young.

He tries to find out what happened to him to die so young, whether it is as a result of Poseidon's rage at sea or in a fight for either stronghold or woman, he is eager to find out.

From these inferences and behavior of Agamnemon, we can conclude that he is disturbed by Amphimedon.

stira [4]
<span>In this excerpt, Emerson is in favor of, and stresses the importance of, individual intellect and moral development. He urges readers to look within—into their inner selves to seek inspiration and attain self-reliance rather than imitating others or adopting age-old ideas, which society has practiced over time. He uses examples of great thinkers such as Moses, Milton, and Plato, who thought for themselves and didn’t let society and established ideas influence them. Emerson further stresses that people should not dismiss their own ideas, only to discover them in others’ works, but learn to nurture and accept their potential. When people are able to accept and trust their own thoughts, they will be able to come up with ideas as brilliant and original as those of any wise man.</span>

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

The author did not limit himself to literal language because he knew that figurative language would give more expressiveness and depth to the text.

As you did not show the text to which your question refers, it is not possible to show the use of figurative language in the text, but it is possible to state the reasons that led the author to use this type of language.

In the question above, we can see that the author made use of the simile, a figure of speech that allows the comparison between two elements, increasing the meaning between them.

This objective is very common in authors who use any type of figurative language in their texts. This is because figurative language can:

  • Intensify parts of the text.
  • Make the text deeper.
  • Show more expressiveness.
  • Create more impactful meanings.
  • Force the reader's thinking.
  • Approach topics with greater delicacy, or more aggressiveness.

It is important to emphasize that figurative language does not have a literal meaning of the words, but something more subjunctive, unlike the literal language.
