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. B)is fighting with Amphimedon. C)has great respect for Amphimedon. D)has a deep affection for 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.

Which of these lines is NOT representative of the visual motif uniting the play? Mercutio: “Blind is his love and best befits th
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

Juliet: “My bounty is as boundless as the sea.”

Explanation:

Visual motif is a visual pattern, which in the context of Romeo & Juliet, means the use of descriptive language focusing on the sense of sight. All the options except for Juliet's dialogue, focuses on this, with Mercutio's "Blind is ....", Romeo's "What light through younder ...", and Friar Laurence's "The grey-eyed morn smiles ...".

Juliet's part, instead is a form of simile, describing how her bounty is like the boundless sea - but it does not look like one.

The following sentence has a misplaced modifier. Tired of studying and writing research papers, summer vacation came as a relief
Archy [21]

The sentence that sounds the best when you read it out loud is:

C. Summer vacation came as a relief to the student, who was tired of studying and writing research papers.

If you read all the sentences out loud they all sound weird except for this one.

I believe this is the correct answer:
<span><em>So before a battle begins, the horses paw the ground; toss their heads; the light shines on their flanks; their necks curve. So Peter Walsh and Clarissa, sitting side by side on the blue sofa, challenged each other. 

</em>I would choose that particular paragraphs because the metaphor is slightly unusual there - two kids, Clarissa and Peter Walsh (when they were young) are being compared to horses, which is not really a common occurrence. <em>
