Help!!! Read the excerpt from The Odyssey.
My heart beat high now at the chance of action,
and drawing the sharp sword from my hip I went
along his flank to stab him where the midriff
holds the liver. 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.
What prevents Odysseus from killing the sleeping Cyclops?
1.He thinks he can reason with the Cyclops in the morning.
2.He wants to make the Cyclops his ally and friend.
3.He knows that they cannot move the boulder blocking the doorway.
4.He feels sorry for the Cyclops who lives all by himself.
Answer:
3. He knows that they cannot move the boulder blocking the doorway.
Explanation:
When the Cyclops attacks Odysseus and his men, Odysseus' first impulse is to attack and kill him to ensure the group's survival. However, they were inside the Cyclops' cave that closed the exit with a very heavy stone, impossible to be removed by humans. Only the Cyclops would be able to open that "door" and if Odysseus killed him, he and his crew would be trapped forever.
Read the excerpt from The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Round the corner from the by-street, there was a square of ancient, handsome houses, now for the most part decayed from their high estate and let in flats and chambers to all sorts and conditions of men; map-engravers, architects, shady lawyers and the agents of obscure enterprises. One house, however, second from the corner, was still occupied entire . . . In what way is this setting characteristic of gothic fiction? The homes have deteriorated from their original grandness. The street is busy with the activity of local traders. The homes have been transformed into places of business. The street is renowned for its wealthy occupants.
Answer:
The homes have deteriorated from their original grandness.
Explanation:
It is noteworthy that we are told in the excerpt that, "there was a square of ancient, handsome houses, now, for the most part, decayed from their high estate.."
This statement about the houses losing their grandness is similar to gothic fiction which often includes stories about ancient architectural styles.
Answer:

Read the following passage from Act I, scene ii of The Tempest, in which Prospero summons Caliban.
PROSPERO . . . Come on;
We'll visit Caliban my sIave, who never
YieIds us kind answer.
MIRANDA
'Tis a viIIain, sir,
I do not love to look on.
PROSPERO
But, as 'tis,
We cannot miss him: he does make our fire,
Fetch in our wood and serves in offices
That profit us. What, h0! sIave! CaIiban!
Thou earth, thou! speak.
CALIBAN
[Within] There's wood enough within.
PROSPERO
Come forth, I say! there's other business for thee:
Come, thou tortoise! when?
(. . .)
Thou poisonous slave, got by the devil himself
Upon thy wicked danm, come forth!
From the passage, identify words and phrases that refer to Caliban. Then, analyze how the choice of words shapes readers' first impression of Caliban and shows Prospero and Miranda's attitude toward him. Be sure to use details from the passage to support your analysis.
Answer:
Themes of Colonialism present in this passage:
Fatherhood
Caliban sees Prospero as a fatherly figure, if you come to think of it, Fathers colonize children in as much as they have power over them, over what they eat, what they learn, where they live and so forth.
"When thou cames first, thou strokeds me and madest much of me, wouldst give me water with berries in't, and teach me how to name the bigger light (....) and then I love thee" In this phrase we can see that Caliban was first treated with love by Prospero because he fed him (with water with berries, like a special treat) and taught him how to name the sun (the bigger light).
Territory
When Caliban grows up, he realizes that Prospero was not like a father, he becomes aware of the fact that Prospero is the colonizer that took what belong to Caliban (His island).
"The island's mine, by Sycorax my mother, which thou takest from me"
What Caliban means here is that the Island has always been his by right, because it belong to his mother, and he accuses Prospero of taking it from him. This is what happens with Colonizers, they take a land (and the people that live in it) although they have no right over it, but from their position of power they dominate the Colonized.
Slavery
Prospero is mad because he believes that Caliban is his slave and that he is not capable of doing good things, because he is less than a human being. "Abhorred slave, Which any print of goodness wilt not take, Being capable of all ill"
Language
Prosperos is also angry because he claims that it was hard work for him to teach Caliban to speak "Took pains to make thee speak, taught thee each hour one thing or other..."
This is interesting because colonized populations have a language of their own, so there is nothing generous about Colonizers teaching the colonized to speak. In fact, language is a tool that is used by Colonizers to control the Colonized.
Through language people can be controlled and their identity is also distorted when they use a language that is not their own. Caliban recognizes that Prospero knows how to name things (as we stated at the beginning) but notice how he calls Caliban in different parts of this extract you included: "Abhorred slave" , "Savage" , "a thing most brutish" "Thou vile race" In this way, we see that Caliban wants to get rid of the identity Prospero ascribed to him, but at the same time he can't fight against the power of the Colonizer (that is, Prospero)
Caliban's answer to this insults is: "You taught me language; and my profit on't is that I know how to curse. The red plague rid you for learning me language!" This means (literally) for the only thing that your language is helpful to me is to insult you (the red plague rid you! is an insult) But from the point of view of literary criticism, we see that Caliban is using the language that was originally used to control him, to fight against the control of Prospero. So, the same weapon that the Colonizer used to exert power over the Colonized, the latter uses it to fight against his control.

In the story behind Barz vets with PTSD basin new Warzone with little support how did David Carlson time at war change him
Explanation:
Carlson stated, "Prison and war take the same survival skills," in other words, his experiences as a war veteran affected his view of the correctional facility, one that needed actions he termed as "survival skills".
Referring to the change in perception resulting from his time at war, he further stated, "...I came up with all sorts of philosophies in my mind the same way I had in Iraq. We were always hypervigilant..., but in my mind, I was in combat with the jail." He's suffering from PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder) made him a difficult inmate because he still felt he was at war and he got little professional medical therapy.

from Aladdin and the Magic Lamp By Antoine Galland
Aladdin fell in love with the princess at first sight. He went home so changed that his mother was frightened. He told her he loved the Princess so deeply he could not live without her, and meant to ask her in marriage of her father. His mother, on hearing this, burst out laughing, but Aladdin at last prevailed upon her to go before the Sultan and carry his request. She fetched a napkin and laid in it the magic fruits from the enchanted garden, which sparkled and shone like the most beautiful jewels. She took these with her to please the Sultan, and set out, trusting in the lamp. The Grand Vizier and the lords of council had just gone in as she entered the hall and placed herself in front of the Sultan. He, however, took no notice of her. She went every day for a week, and stood in the same place. When the council broke up on the sixth day the Sultan said to his Vizier: "I see a certain woman in the audience-chamber every day carrying something in a napkin. Call her next time, that I may find out what she wants." Next day, at a sign from the vizier, she went up to the foot of the throne and remained kneeling until the Sultan said to her: "Rise, good woman, and tell me what you want." She hesitated, so the Sultan sent away all but the Vizier, and bade her speak freely, promising to forgive her beforehand for anything she might say. She then told him of her son's violent love for the Princess. "I prayed him to forget her," she said, "but in vain; he threatened to do some desperate deed if I refused to go and ask your Majesty for the hand of the Princess. Now I pray you to forgive not me alone, but my son Aladdin." The Sultan asked her kindly what she had in the napkin, whereupon she unfolded the jewels and presented them. He was thunderstruck, and turning to the vizier, said: "What sayest thou? Ought I not to bestow the Princess on one who values her at such a price?" The Vizier, who wanted her for his own son, begged the Sultan to withhold her for three months, in the course of which he hoped his son could contrive to make him a richer present.

Explain why the figure of the bard, Demodocus, is important. What or who does he represent? ANSWERED ASAP PLS
Answer:
Demodocus is a poet who often visits the court of Alcinous, king of the Phaeacians on the island of Scherie. During Odysseus' stay on Scherie, Demodocus performs three narrative songs.
Explanation:
Demodocus, whose name means "beloved of the people," has several important functions in book 8, not the least of which is that Demodocus gives us a clear picture of the importance of the bard in Bronze Age oral culture. In addition, his songs about Odysseus—and, more important, Odysseus's reaction to those songs—prompt the key question from Odysseus's Phaeacian host, King Alcinous: "Who are you?"

A student is writing the introduction to an opinion piece about school subjects drag into the box what the sentence should be include in the introduction to MOST CLEARLY state her opinion.
Answer and Explanation:
Hello. You didn't show the answer options, nor did you say what the students think about school subjects, which makes it impossible for me to answer your question efficiently. However, I will help you as much as I can, showing you how to recognize a sentence that should be placed in the introduction of an opinion article. I hope it helps.
The introduction of an article is the moment when the author must present his theme and make it very clear what he will talk about during the article. Literally, the main subject of the article is introduced in this section. In this case, the student should put in the introduction exactly his opinion about school subjects, showing the position he will defend in the rest of the article.
Example: Schools have failed to provide disciplines that are really important for the academic development of all students, who have spent time on irrelevant and worthless subjects.
