uranmaximum [27]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

In The Odyssey, after surviving from the Troy war, is imprisoned on the island Ogygia by a beautiful nymph named Calypso. Hermes persuade Calypso to let Odysseus go. Odysseus leaves and is encountered by Poseidon who tried to avenge his blinded son. Athena intervenes to save Odysseus. Then Odysseus narrates what happened to him after then Troy War. Athena disguises Odysseus as a beggar and Odysseus enters the palace. He meets Penelope disguised as a beggar.

Explanation:

The incidence in the excerpt tells of this meeting. In the excerpt, the beggar(Odysseus) describes in detail about Odysseus' looks to Penelope. Penelope suspects that this beggar is her long-lost husband. The irony created in this excerpt is that Odsseues thinks that he had hidden his identity from Penelope but on the contrary, Penelope is crafty and organizes an archery contest to reveal the true identity of the beggar.

Add or remove apostrophes where appropriate. There are 4 errors to be corrected.
Deffense [45]

Answer:

It would be hard to find a European city that has a worse reputation than <u>Bartovia's</u>, with crime, rubbish, graffiti and dereliction featuring in every description over the last 60 years. With unemployment running at 11% and the city government essentially bankrupt, there are few bright spots in <u>Bartovia's </u>future. One of the few, however, is a new venture run by Sergio Leone, who has returned to the city of his birth to try and make the impossible a reality. Along with tanning (the process of treating animal <u>skins</u> to produce leather), dyeing has a long and glorious history in Bartovia. The difference today, though, is that <u>Sergio Leone's</u> mission is to bring to a centuries-old tradition the very latest bleeding-edge technology.

If I bolded and underlined the word, it means I either added one or took it out. I added 3 and took out 1. Skins is the one I took out, the rest I put in.

Let me Know I I am right.    :)

An air mass changes _____.
nikklg [1K]

The correct answer is C, as an air mass changes the weather of the area over which it moves.

An air mass is defined as a large portion of air, with a horizontal extension of several hundred kilometers, whose physical properties, especially temperature, moisture content and vertical temperature gradient, are more or less uniform.

Between two air masses fronts are formed, which can have different temperatures.

The cold front is a band of instability that occurs when a mass of cold air approaches a hot air mass. The cold air, being more dense, generates a "wedge" and gets under warm and less dense air.

The cold fronts move quickly. They are strong and can cause atmospheric disturbances such as thunderstorms, squalls, tornadoes, strong winds and short snowstorms before the cold front passes, accompanied by dry conditions as the front advances.

The warm front is the front of a warm air mass that moves to replace a cold air mass. Generally, with the passage of the warm front the temperature and humidity increase, the pressure drops and although the wind changes it is not as pronounced as when a cold front passes.

An occluded front is formed when a slower moving hot front is followed by a cold front with faster displacement. The cold wedge-shaped front reaches the hot front and pushes it upwards. The two fronts continue moving one behind the other and the line between them is what forms the occluded front.

Finally the stationary front is a limit between two air masses, of which none is strong enough to replace the other.

Why did Churchill replace Chamberlain as Britain's new prime minister shortly after World War II began?
Natasha2012 [34]

There should have been options to choose from for this question. I found the options elsewhere and the correct answer would be because Churchill had a better understanding of the situation with Hitler than Chamberlain did.

Churchill knew that diplomacy would not work with Hitler and the only way to reach a resolution was through military force and tactics.
