<span>She does not marry one of the suitors.

Even though Odysseus has been gone for all of his son's childhood and many have declared him dead, Penelope stays loyal to him and refuses to marry one of the suitors.

She does allow the suitors into her home as part of their social culture. She delays the suitors advances with various excuses. She says she will not choose one until she has weaving the burial shroud, but she unravels the shroud at night to make it take longer. She also puts the suitors to a test. When they learn of this, they demand she choose one immediately. She tells them she will marry whoever can shoot an arrow through the ax handles. Odysseus returns home in disguise and succeeds in shooting the arrow before revealing his true identity.

Select the correct answer. Which literary technique does the poet use in these lines from Beowulf? That [sword] was not useless
Rzqust [24]

The Poet uses litotes as a literary technique in the sentence That [sword] was not useless to the warrior now from Beowulf.

Litotes is a technique that communicates in a positive message through a negative structure, we can see in the sentence the use of was not, but the general meaning is a positive one saying that the sword was in fact really useful.

The other options are not correct because those techniques make reference to sounds and metrics or use of a combination of words no the general meaning of a sentence.

What is the topic sentence in this paragraph? Alexander Hamilton’s major role in the US government was secretary of the Treasury
Triss [41]

He used his position to generate income to strengthen the federal government’s power.

 

<span>Frequently, the first sentence of a paragraph will be the topic sentence, the notion of which might make the selection of the topic sentence of this paragraph a bit tricky.  However, in this instance, the topic sentence is, in fact, the second sentence.  This can be determined by looking at all the body sentences.  When we look at the body sentences, all sentences are about the income and power of the government.  As such, the remainder of the paragraph following the second sentence is an elaboration of the second sentence, “He used his position to generate income to strengthen the federal government’s power.”  Thus, it is safe to say that the second sentence is the topic sentence of the paragraph.</span>
