Can someone please give me a summary to the odyssey book 21?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Summary: Book 21

Penelope gets Odysseus’s bow out of the storeroom and announces that she will marry the suitor who can string it and then shoot an arrow through a line of twelve axes. Telemachus sets up the axes and then tries his own hand at the bow, but fails in his attempt to string it. The suitors warm and grease the bow to make it supple, but one by one they all try and fail.

Meanwhile, Odysseus follows Eumaeus and Philoetius outside. He assures himself of their loyalty and then reveals his identity to them by means of the scar on his foot. He promises to treat them as Telemachus’s brothers if they fight by his side against the suitors.

When Odysseus returns, Eurymachus has the bow. He feels disgraced that he cannot string it, because he knows that this failure proves his inferiority to Odysseus. Antinous suggests that they adjourn until the next day, when they can sacrifice to Apollo, the archer god, before trying again. Odysseus, still disguised, then asks for the bow. All of the suitors complain, fearing that he will succeed. Antinous ridicules Odysseus, saying that the wine has gone to his head and that he will bring disaster upon himself, just like the legendary drunken centaur Eurytion. Telemachus takes control and orders Eumaeus to give Odysseus the bow. Needless to say, Odysseus easily strings it and sends the first arrow he grabs whistling through all twelve axes.

Write an example for this pattern: QW – Aux – subject – verb – object)?

Answers

Answer:

Why is she reading a book?

Explanation:

QW = question word (a word that introduces a question, why)

Aux = auxiliary verb (is, part of is reading)

subject = she

verb = (is) reading

object = a book

An example for the pattern QW - Aux - subject - verb - object is:

Where did you put the keys?

QW stands for question word, which is literally a word used to ask an informative question. Examples of question words are: who, where, what, when, how, etc.Aux stands for auxiliary verb. This type of verb helps us form negative or interrogative sentences. Examples of auxiliary verbs are: do, does, did, am, is, are.Subject is the topic of the sentence, that is, what the sentence is about. In "the cat ate my food," "the cat" is the subject.Verb is the word that indicates the action performed by the subject or the state/condition in which the subject is. In "the cat ate my food," the verb is "ate".The object is the word that receives the action performed or indicated by the verb. In "the cat ate my food," the object is "my food".

With that in mind, let's break down our answer:

QW - whereAux - didsubject - youverb - putobject - the keys

Read the excerpt from "The Lottery."

The morning of June 27th was clear and sunny, with the fresh warmth of a full-summer day; the flowers were blossoming profusely and the grass was richly green. The people of the village began to gather in the square, between the post office and the bank, around ten o'clock; in some towns there were so many people that the lottery took two days and had to be started on June 26th, but in this village, where there were only about three hundred people, the whole lottery took only about two hours, so it could begin at ten o'clock in the morning and still be through in time to allow the villagers to get home for noon dinner.

Answers

Answer:

The narrator of "The Black Cat" begins by saying that we probably won’t believe what he is about to tell us. But he assures us that he is not mad, and because he is about to die the next day, he wants to recount to us these “household events” that have caused so much terror. He suspects that to some people, the events will seem commonplace, and their horror will be explained away with logic and science.

The narrator of "The Black Cat" tells us of his boyhood, which was easy. He had a particular love of animals and had a lot of pets and this love only increased into adulthood. He thinks there is something in the loyalty and unselfishness of a dog that you can’t get from a man. But the narrator did marry, and was lucky to find a wife who appreciated his love of pets, and filled their house with a host of them, including a black cat.

This cat was unusually large and intelligent. The narrator of "The Black Cat" remembers how his wife used to talk about the superstition that black cats are all witches in disguise, but he assures us that this is unimportant to the story. He just remembers the detail. Anyway, the cat’s name was Pluto and became a favorite of the narrator, following him everywhere. This special bond lasted several years.

C.

D.

E.

Answers

Answer:

c

Explanation:

Because it's how the speaker feels

I believe the answer is E because later on in the sentence she states that she is going to school in Jacksonville. " But changes came in the family when I was thirteen, and I was sent to school in Jacksonville"

It doesn't sound like she has any anger in the sentence, she's not stating any family connections, nor is it about her life a young person. The only other option I see being right is D. As it is changing the tone of the next paragraph

the long and short of it is its probably E

Amir has researched the effects of screen time on
adolescents. Now, Amir is writing a response. Amir
does not think that screen time is something all teens
can avoid
Which detail from the source best supports Amir's
idea?
While many schools have brought in 1:1 programs, which
provide one device for every student, experts recommend
that teens and tweens limit their screen time and use of
technology.
Screen time can have positive effects and can be used for
learning, but it can also be negative and toxic to teens. At
home, teens use screen time to connect with others,
watch videos, and play games, but also to engage in social
media banter and sharing. At school, students may watch
educational videos that connect to a lesson.
Either way, teens are getting more screen time than ever
before. Both parents and teachers need to set limits. Just
because the technology is available does not mean it is
always helpful, experts say.
Teachers who wanted technology in their classrooms are
now finding it to be a distraction, as students use devices
for noneducational purposes.
* "Teens are getting more screen time than ever
before."
O "Parents and guardians may be able to adjust
screen time at home, but not every place will allow
for those limits."
O "Technology-free schools do exist."
O "Screen time can have positive effects and can be
used for learning, but it can also be negative and
