Answer:

"The Odyssey" is one of the two great epic poems that was written by Greek poet Homer. While the first one, "The Iliad" narrates the events that take place during the Trojan War, "The Odyssey" is the narration of the events and circumstances that surround the main character, Odysseus, as he travels from the Trojan War back to his home, after being away from it for several years.

"The Odyssey" manages several themes in its storyline, among which, we find the following:

B. Ithaca is Odysseus´s true home: from the end of the war, Odysseus´s entire efforts focus on his returning back to his home in Ithaca. And even though he is tempted several times to let that idea go, he remains loyal to it. In Ithaca is where his beloved family is, and he intends to go back at whatever price.

C. Too much pride is dangerous: Odysseus experiences the cost of too much pride several times along his journey, learning that humility, not pride, is always a much smarter roadway.

E. Odysseus is often quite prideful: Just as the option above, Odysseus comes upon circumstances in which an excess of pride causes severe damages to those he wants to protect and love. He soon learns that too much pride leads to disaster.

F. Telemachus loves his father: The topic of love is one of the biggest ones. Both from Penelope and Telemachus towards Odysseus, which is what drives them to always await for him to return, even after so many years of his absence, and from Odysseus to them. It is love that drives Telemachus to remain faithful to his father and seek help to protect his mother from the suitors, while his father returns from the war. It is also love that helps Telemachus to recognize his father in the end.

Which of the following were characteristics of Athenian democracy? Select the three correct answers.

Delvig [45]

Answer:

A. The government consisted of an assembly, a council, and courts.

C. Only free adult males made up the assembly.

D. The citizens elected leaders to discuss important matters.

E. Women, slaves, and foreigners were not allowed to participate.

Explanation:

Around 594 to 321 BC, in the Athenian polis, there was a democratic form of government. It is called the world's first democratic system. Any citizen had the right (and even the obligation) to participate in the work of the National Assembly. As it is noted by experts, in the heyday of Athenian democracy, about a third of citizens simultaneously held one or another public office.

Ancient Greek democracy was a limited democracy of only free citizens, leaving without the political rights slaves and women, who constituted the vast majority of the population; this ancient democracy was slave-owning democracy.

The national assembly met every 8-9 days, and several thousand people took part in it. Between the meetings of the ecclesia, the “council of five hundred,” was engaged in current affairs. Members of the council were elected by lot of citizens no younger than 30 years old. Litigation was heard in a "jury trial." It consisted of 6,000 people who were chosen by lot.

Eduardwww [97]

Explanation:

Language is basically the way to communication. It is a way through which a person sends his message to the other person either through speaking, writing, through signs or through body language. Anything communicated to the other person is the language.

In this example, charlie wants to make his audience clearly understood about the loosening of immigration policies, so he should use simple and effective words to make them understand the immigration policies. If he would use jargon or abbreviations, audience will not be able to understand the real message what he wants to delivery. He should use simple words and effective body language to make audience follow his arguments and get emotionally involved.
