Write a compare and contrast analysis of how culture shapes the heroes in heart of a samurai and black ships before Troy use translation words in your draft to help clarify relationships of ideas

Answers

Answer:

only thing is it's kinda long

Answer:

Culture has a significant impact on heroes. For starters, it influences how a person or character perceives a particular situation or idea, as well as their point of view on a variety of ideas and topics. Next, it has an impact on how the hero is portrayed in the story. Third, it influences how a character reacts to an idea or situation.

Culture has an impact on heroes. We see an example of this in 'Black Ships Before Troy,' where in Achilles' culture, to be a hero, you must be brave and fight. This is also evident in 'Heart of a Samurai,' where Manjiro's culture dictates that in order to be a hero, you must provide for your family.

A man is about to go on a date for the first time in 20 years. Before now, he had been in a long-term relationship, which has sadly come to an end. He just got too distracted by work, by friends, by everything except what he needed to focus on most. She became like a ghost around the house, a silent presence haunting the space they lived in, but otherwise preoccupied with her own ethereal concerns. He blames himself. Maybe he doesn't deserve to find love. Maybe he isn't suited to be in a relationship. He stops just short of stepping into the restaurant where his date is waiting for him. Finally, he decides to call his ex to ask her for advice. He always felt stronger with her in the picture, though he took her for granted until now. He needs just a little bit of that strength again.Which statement is a plausible theme in this story?A.More often than not, evil comes dressed in the guise of goodness.B.A man decides to call his ex of all people for advice on dating.C.People who are willing to grow do deserve second chances.D.Love at first sight does exist, and it can be a wonderful experience.

Answers

It's definitely C because of him calling his ex, trying to give her another chance

The statement that is a plausible theme in this story is "people who are willing to grow do deserve second chances".

What are second chances?

Second chances "are opportunity to try something again after failing one time".

People who are willing to grow do deserve second chances is a plausible theme in this story because the man wants a second chance from her ex to  help him out as he has realized his past mistakes.

Milton's poem about his blindness, beginning "When I consider how my light is spent" is a(n)
English sonnet
o pastoral elegy
Italian sonnet
o short epic

Answers

Answer:

Italian sonnet.

Explanation:

An Italian sonnet, also known as Petrarchan sonnet is a sonnet form that has the structure of an 8-lined stanza and a 6-lined stanza. The rhyming scheme of the sonnet is abba abba and cdccdc. This means that the first 8 lines will have the rhyme abba abba, and the next 6 lines will be cdc cdc.

John Milton's "Sonnet 19: When I consider how my light is spent" is a Petrarchan sonnet with the same structure. Here, Milton talks about his sudden change in life- his blindness and the concerns he has when he will be blind.

Thus, the correct answer is the third option.

Watch or listen to a news broadcast on television or radio. Restate the news broadcast watched or heard in own words. (C O V I D-19)

(ORIGINAL, UNDERSTANDABLE AND NO LINKS)​

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

After watching the news broadcast on television, I am going to restate the news broadcast in my own words. The topic is pandemics.

The TV host was a smart guy, one of the few that was so rational in his explanations about how mass media has biased the information about the pandemic, trying to create fear over this topic.

The TV host publicly questioned the way most major news companies have disinformed the American people with sensationalistic information, mostly focused on the number of deaths, when there so much important information about the number of people that are healed from the disease. And nobody is reporting this good news.

His point is that most of the news coverage is on the negative side to create fear and drama. And such a few news reporters and news companies rally try to educate the American people, telling them both sides of the story.

This means, to provide the audience with the two versions. The version of the government and official data, but also different points of view and different perspectives that are serious about the use of masks or not, the positives but negatives to doing so, the benefits of vaccination but the risks too, as we have seen recently.

So, it really was very interesting to watch this TV host who was smart enough and brave enough to talk differently. I enjoy it a lot.

E. to emphasize the speaker’s commitment to the main argument

from Life Without Principle
by Henry David Thoreau

Perhaps I am more than usually jealous with respect to my freedom. I feel that my connection with and obligation to society are still very slight and transient. Those slight labors which afford me a livelihood, and by which it is allowed that I am to some extent serviceable to my contemporaries, are as yet commonly a pleasure to me, and I am not often reminded that they are a necessity. So far I am successful. But I foresee that if my wants should be much increased, the labor required to supply them would become a drudgery. If I should sell both my forenoons and afternoons to society, as most appear to do, I am sure that for me there would be nothing left worth living for. I trust that I shall never thus sell my birthright for a mess of pottage. I wish to suggest that a man may be very industrious, and yet not spend his time well. There is no more fatal blunderer than he who consumes the greater part of his life getting his living. All great enterprises are self-supporting. The poet, for instance, must sustain his body by his poetry, as a steam planing-mill feeds its boilers with the shavings it makes. You must get your living by loving. But as it is said of the merchants that ninety-seven in a hundred fail, so the life of men generally, tried by this standard, is a failure, and bankruptcy may be surely prophesied. (10)
