Which quotation supports the point that the crew respects Odysseus and follows his orders? “They tied me up, then, plumb / amids

hips, back to the mast, lashed to the mast, / and took themselves again to rowing.” “Soon, / as we came smartly within hailing distance, / the two Sirens, noting our fast ship / off their point, made ready, and they sang” “This way, oh turn your bows, / Achaea’s glory, / As all the world allows– / Moor and be merry.”

Answer:

"They tied me up, then, plumb / amidships, back to the mast, lashed to the mast, / and took themselves again to rowing."

Explanation:

In Homer's "The Odysseus," the crew tie Odysseus so that the incredibly charming song of the sirens does not make him lose his mind, crash the ship against some rocks and drown himself. As a result, he asked his men (who had beewax in their ears) to tie him to the mast.

Read the excerpt from President Reagan’s Address at Moscow State University.
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

In this excerpt, Reagan uses:

C. allusion to give his speech more authority.

Explanation:

Allusion is a figure of speech in which a reference is made to something or someone. It is common for the author or speaker to not explain much, since he assumes the audience knows to whom or what he refers.

<u>In this particular case, President Reagan used allusion with the purpose of conferring his speech more authority. The Bible is a well-known book, even in countries where Christianity is not prevalent. In the U.S., a country largely constituted of Christians, alluding to the Bible is a way to immediately inspire respect and evoke obedience. Therefore, mentioning the wisdom "contained in the book of Genesis in the Bible" helps Reagan's speech sound more authoritative, more worthy of respect</u>.

What details from a story best help develop the theme?
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

Fourth Option

Explanation:

Lets use process of elimination to find the answer to this question. It's not the third option because giving descriptions of time and place only help establish the setting of the story and theme is the main idea of the story, it wouldn't be the first option because the readers knowledge develops as the story goes on so they wouldn't be developing details from the story that help create the theme. It also wouldn't be the second option because the authors motivation is before the story was even wrote. Therefore the answer is option four "character motivation and plot" because it helps the reader learn from the characters of the story.

Hope this helps.
