What sound device is used in this excerpt from "How the Animals Lost Their Tails and Got Them Back Traveling from Philadelphia t

o Medicine Hat"? There were sixty-six representatives on the committee and they decided to call it the Committee of Sixty-Six.

Write a paragraph that evaluates Odysseus’s qualifications as an epic hero.
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

Odysseus has all of the qualifications as an epic leader. He is wise, and determined.

" I had touched the spot when sudden fear stayed me: if I killed him we perished there as well, for we could never move his ponderous doorway slab aside. So we were left to groan and wait for morning."

This proves that he knows what is right, and they he is determined to do what he believes is best for his crew. Odysseus knows that if he kills the Cyclops, then he and his men will not be able to go inside the cave.
