It depends on how you look at it. I would do your own research and come up with your own conclusion.

How do prophecies affect Odysseus and Achilles?
Answer: Both prophecies are bad for their well being, In The Odyssey Odysseus is warned by the blind prophet Tiresias that all of the sacred cattle of the Sun God Helios should be left alone. Tiresias says that the cattle should be avoided at whatever cost, and that if they are not, the men will all meet their doom. The prophecy that he would be killed either by Apollo or by Paris is treated vividly: Achilles falls in love with Polyxena, Priam's daughter, and arranges to meet Hecuba and Paris in the temple of Apollo Thrymbraeus in Troy. Paris and Deiphebus ambush him when he arrives, and they kill him.
Explanation:
The epic poets of the Silver Age of Roman Literature also labored
in different degrees under the triple burden of self-consciousness,
learning, and empty rhetoric. Their task was the more difficult
because Homer and Virgil had preceded them, so that whether they
chose an historical or mythological theme, they were timorously
conscious that they were doomed to second place. This is, for the
most part, only another way of saying that the epics under considera-
tion spring each from its own age. The ninth and eighth centuries
before our era could not have produced a poem suited for example
to the Alexandrian Age, when Greece, her great creative impulse lost,
became conscious of self and sought glory rather pedantically in her
great traditions; still less could those early centuries have given us
an epic of world empire. On the other hand, the age of Augustus and
even more the century that followed him were powerless to recover
the heroic spirit and adventurous temper of the Hellenic stocks on the
coast of Asia Minor when their world was young.
Prophecy, the foretelling of events, must carry the warrant of its
validity with it to gain attention. It may be given by a god or by one
who is divinely endowed with an understanding of signs and portents,
with a knowledge of fate and the future; if it be spoken by a mortal
who has received no special inspiration, the character and force of the
speaker, and the circumstances under which he speaks, must be such
as to carry conviction, or the effect is lost. Although the poet him-
self may utter prophecies, he rarely ventures to do so in the epic, for
this form of poetry is largely objective; he usually, therefore, leaves
the r1le of prophet to his characters. He may announce his theme
by calling on the Goddess to sing the wrath of Achilles, or by bidding
the Muse relate the fate of far-wandering Odysseus, after he had
sacked the sacred city of Troy; indeed, if he belong to a more sub-
jective age he may say openly, as does Apollonius the Rhodi
Step 1: Find a person
There are a lot of recorded interviews available of people who experienced World War II, either as soldiers, civilians, or as prisoners.
Requirements for your person:
• Must have been over 18 years old during the war (no children)

• Does NOT have to be related to you, you do NOT have to personally know this person. You do NOT have to personally interview the person.
Step 2: Background Information
Once you choose a person, try and find out as much information about your person as possible, such as:
• Hometown
• Graduation from high school & college
• Unit served with (if a soldier or military nurse)
• Where they served (if a soldier or military nurse)
• What important events were they involved in (if a soldier or military nurse)
• When and why, they joined (if a soldier or military nurse)/ Why they did not join if civilian
• What they did after peace was declared
• Any other information you can think of including or find interesting about their life
Step 3: Your Opinion
Be sure you can answer these questions about your person.
• What influence do you think your person held during the war? What about after the war?
• Do you feel that your person was given the recognition he/she deserved during his/her lifetime?
• Why did you choose this person over the other people available?
Step 4: Write
Now that you have gathered all the data, it is time to compile it so Mrs. Coslett can read about your person, too!
Your paper will need to be:
• 4 pages minimum, 6 pages maximum in length
• Double spaced
• Typed in either Times New Roman, Courier New, or Calibri
• Typed with Font Size 12
• Aligned to the Left margin
• Be sure to include the information from steps 1, 2 and 3.
• You will also want an introductory paragraph and a conclusion paragraph.
• Also, be sure to include your reference page (not part of your minimum 4-page requirement because it always comes as the last page) to tell where your interview came from and any other additional material.

According to the passages, why would Benjamin Lundy reject William Travis's notion
that the Texan rebels are fighting for liberty?
"A blood-red banner waves from the church of Bejar, and in the camp above us, in
token that the war is one of vengeance against rebels; they have declared us such,
and demanded that we should surrender at discretion, or that this garrison should be
put to the sword. Their threats have had no influence on me, or my men, but to make
all fight with desperation, and that high souled courage which characterizes the
patriot, who is willing to die in defence of his country's liberty and his own honor." -
William Travis
“But the prime cause and the real objects of this war are not distinctly understood by
a large portion of the honest, disinterested, and well-meaning citizens of the United
States. ... [M]any of them have been deceived and misled by the misrepresentations
of those concerned in it, and especially by hireling writers for the newspaper press.
They have been induced to believe that the inhabitants of Texas were engaged in a
legitimate contest for the maintenance of the sacred principles of Liberty, and the
natural, inalienable Rights of Man: whereas .... the immediate cause and the leading
object of this contest originated in a settled design, among the slaveholders of this
country (with land speculators and slave-traders), to wrest the large and valuable
territory of Texas from the Mexican Republic, in order to re-establish the SYSTEM
OF SLAVERY; to open a vast and profitable SLAVE-MARKET therein; and, ultimately,
to annex it to the United States...."-Benjamin Lundy
Answer:
Benjamin Lundy rejected William Travis's notion that the Texan rebels are fighting for liberty as Texan rebels were planning to expand slavery, which negated any claims about liberty.
Explanation:
Benjamin Lundy was an abolitionist and publisher in the 1820s and 30s.
In his text titled "The Life, Travels, and Opinions of Benjamin Lundy," he shared his concerning the Texan rebels. William Travis, the lawyer, shared his concern about the Texan rebels and believed that they were fighting for liberty. To this Benjamin opined that Texan rebels were not fighting for liberty as they were planning to expand slavery, which invalidate such claims.

The label that best completes the graphic organizer is Pros and Cons of the Free Enterprise System. The correct option is a.
What is a free enterprise system?Free enterprise, or the free market, refers to an economy where the market determines prices, products, and services rather than the government. Businesses and services are free of government control. Alternatively, free enterprise could refer to an ideological or legal system whereby commercial activities are primarily regulated through private measures.
A free enterprise legal system tends to result in capitalism. A free enterprise aims to increase freedom, market efficiency, consumer rights, financial security and stability, and economic opportunities. Though free enterprise grants more freedom, there is higher risk of more several economic crises without government intervention. In principle and in practice, free markets are defined by private property rights, voluntary contracts, and competitive bidding for goods and services in the marketplace.
This framework is in contrast to public ownership of property, coercive activity, and fixed or controlled distribution of goods and services.

How did politicians
react to slavery?
They were in 2 different sides. The Abolitionists and the Pro-Slavery politicians. Some were heavily against slavery and started a movement to abolish it, some even tried freeing slaves. Pro-slavery politicians were in heavy support of it and did everything in their power to keep it alive in the South. It got to the point where all the Southern States threatened to secede from the United States in the late 1850s, and even caused Virginia to split into 2 states, Virginia and West Virginia.
