Answer:

The mercy of the gods is unleashed when they are enchanted by the music of Ofeu. This mercy was just, since Orpheus was a very talented musician.

Explanation:

Orpheus was in love with his wife Eurydice. One day Eurydice is bitten by a snake and ends up dying. Orpheus is desolate and decides to go and fetch her in the underworld, taking his harp, in case he needed to use his talent to convince the gods Hades and Persephone to release Eurydice.

This is exactly what happens and, moved by Orpheus' talent, the gods have the mercy to free Persephone from the underworld.

According to Strunk, what is the correct way to punctuate this compound sentence?
tresset_1 [31]

The answer is:

“Tony cooked dinner, and I made the salad, but Mike just ate.”  

As stated by William Strunk, independent clauses must not be separated by a comma. However, he suggests placing a comma before a conjunction when introducing an independent clause. Therefore, the first two clauses are joined by a comma and the conjunction <em>and,</em> while the last clause is separated by a comma before the conjunction <em>but.</em>

Why does Mrs. Whitaker reject Galaad's offer of the apple of the Hesperides while accepting his other two gifts? *
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

The reason that Mrs. Whitaker rejects Galaad's offer of the apple of the Hesperides while accepting his other two gifts is:

The apple of Hesperides represents Mrs. Whitaker's past.  She does not want to return to her youth, out of free choice, even though she is enamored of youthful exuberance.

Explanation:

Neil Gaiman's collection of short stories, entitled "Smoke and Mirrors" (1998), has a second tale christened "Chivalry."  The theme of "Chivalry" is about love, growing old, and personal choices. This Neil Gaiman's Christmas special is the story of Mrs Whitaker, who finds the Holy Grail in a charity shop.  When approached by a Knight for the Holy Grail, she chose, in exchange, some precious stones, instead of the apple of the Hesperides, which could have returned her youth, a youth she remembered with nostalgia.

Match the fallacy with its name. Your grandfather died in World War II; you of all people should support veterans.
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

The fallacy is that veterans should be supported.

Explanation:

Fallacies are mistaken beliefs. Things that people believe in that don't make sense. In this passage, the narrator is saying to another person that all people should support veterans(people who were in a war) because their grandfather was killed in World war 2. But, that means that the grandfather was <em>killed by a veteran</em>! This doesn't make sense. The fallacy is that veterans should be supported.
