The excerpt from Part 2 of The Odyssey which best support the conclusion that Odysseus is clever is ‘My name is Nohbdy: mother, father, and friends,

everyone calls me Nohbdy.’

The Odysseys by Homer, a conflict between Odysseus and the Cyclops reveals that he is clever because he makes up a false name for himself and tricks the Cyclops.

When odyssey blind Polyphemus his objectives are made clear when Polyphemus next morning let his sheep go for graze. In addition, it adds a humorous and clever twist when odyssey lies about his name as 'Nobody'   to rescue Polyphemus. Whereas, odyssey displays himself as cunning and proud when he reveals himself.

He lies to Polyphemus by telling him that his ship is destroyed by Poseidon and disguise himself by naming himself as ‘nobody’. Hence when odyssey blind him and Polyphemus shouts for help “nobody is killing me!” his brother doesn’t come for help thinking he is alone.

Yuki888 [10]

Sheila’s(adj) mother(n) can(v) drive(v) us(pn) to(prep) the(adj) mall(n).

That(adj) song(n) is(v) stuck(adj) in(prep) my(adj) head(n).

The(adj) teacher(n) handed(v) the(adj) math(adj) test(n) back(adv) today(adv).

There are no words italicized in the question, so I labeled them all according to the following information.

A noun (n) is a person, place, thing or idea. Nouns are often the subject of the sentence or an object in the sentence.

A pronoun(pn) takes the place of a noun. They refer back to a noun and can show gender.

An adjective(adj) describes a noun. It is often found directly in front of a noun. The, a, an are all considered adjectives, and have their own subcategory of adjectives, so they can also be called articles.

A verb (v) is an action or state of being word. Action verbs are easy to identify as they are things that you can do. State of being verbs connect the subject to its description.

An adverb (adv) describes verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. They can answer the question: when? where? how? how often?

A preposition (prep) is a word that tells where one noun is in relation to another noun. A preposition is always followed by a noun.

Answer:

Olivia <u>enjoys</u> the attention she received however she knows that she <u>cannot accept the trophy</u> because it would be <u>dishonest</u>

What does the dialogue reveal about Rosetta?
TiliK225 [7]

Answer: She feels confident about continuing on to Kans.

Explanation:

This is the correct answer because, in the end, she is saying that "Hmmph. Well, we've come this far. We'll just have to  go on without him."

She feels confident about it even though she does not know how to get there without the gu( that is why the second statement is false). She does not want to return to Louisiana with her family, she wants to continue the journey and that is why the first statement is also false.

The third statement is false because she is not angry at Nate, she is angry at the guru because he stole their money and disappear.
