Answer and Explanation:
As you may already know, "Odyssey" is an epic story written, probably, by Homer. The story takes place in Greece, during the Trojan War and we learn about the achievements and adventures of the hero Odysseus and his attempts to return home.
In part I of this story, we are introduced to topics such as cunning and fidelity. Cunning is presented through Odisseuy's deeds, which is the main characteristic of this hero. Cunning is presented at all times in the work, pointing Odysseus as someone who is courageous, daring and intelligent. Fidelity, on the other hand, is presented through Odysseus' remorse for not being faithful to his wife during many moments in his adventures.
Part II of this work presents other themes such as character flaws and hospitality. The character flaw is also a great feature of Odysseus and shows how imperfect the hero is, in addition to humanizing him and allowing readers to identify with him. The hospitality is due to Odisseu's wife, who needs to receive in her home many suitors who bother her and destroy her family's patrimony.

A desire was granted to a king named Midas who once helped a Satyr by the wine god Dionysus in exchange for his good deed. Midas wished that everything he touched would turn to gold.
Thus, option C is correct.

The Monkey's Paw Summary- Part I
Answer:
on a dark and stormy night as the three members of the White family relax inside their cozy house. Herbert White and his father are playing a game of chess while Mrs. White knits near the fire. After his son wins, Mr. White complains about the terrible weather and nearly deserted road they live near.
A family friend, Sergeant-Major Morris, arrives for a visit. Over whisky, he tells stories of his exploits abroad. Mr. White caught interest in going to India, but the sergeant-major says he would be better off staying at home. At Mr. and Mrs. Whites’ wishing/urging, Sergeant-Major Morris takes a small, mummified paw out of his pocket. He explains that a fakir (a mystic miracle worker) placed a spell on the paw to prove that people’s lives are governed by fate and that it is dangerous to meddle with fate. According to the sergeant-major, three men can wish on the paw three times each. The sergeant-major himself has already had his three wishes, as has another man, who used his third wish to ask for death. The sergeant-major has considered selling the paw, but he doesn’t want it to cause any more trouble than it already has. No one will buy the paw without first seeing proof of its effect. The sergeant-major throws the paw into the fire, and Mr. White quickly rescues it. The sergeant-major warns Mr. White three times to leave the paw alone, but he eventually explains how to make a wish on the paw.

Read this excerpt from Thomas Paine's famous essay "The Crisis Number One":
I have as little superstition in me as any man living, but my secret opinion has ever been, and still is, that God Almighty will not give up a
people to military destruction, or leave them unsupportedly to perish, who have so earnestly and so repeatedly sought to avoid the
calamities of war, by every decent method which wisdom could Invent. Neither have I so much of the infidel in me, as to suppose that He
has relinquished the government of the world, and given us up to the care of devils; and as I do not, I cannot see on what grounds the king
of Britain can look up to heaven for help against us: a common murderer, a highwayman, or a house-breaker, has as good a pretence as he.
Which sentence best describes Paine's claim in the excerpt?

Modern readers are well aware that "A Modest Proposal" is ironic, but how do you think readers knew this in 1729? Where in the text does Swift (as author) reveal his true satiric intentions? Cite at least two pieces of evidence from the text to support your answer.
Answers and Explanation:
Readers were aware of the irony of Swift's text because of the absurd proposals he presented in addition to the strong sarcasm and acid and direct criticism of rich society. Swift reveals his satirical intentions as soon as he says that eating the babies of poor mothers would be the solution to Ireland's hunger, because it would allow food for the rich people and money for the poor people who would sell their children. In addition, he reveals strong satirical criticism when he states that the meat of infant children will be highly appreciated by wealthy Englishmen and Iranians.

Thank you:)
Answer:
I read the others answers so hopefully these are all new.
How would you describe poor mental health, and do you suffer from such?
Do you feel like being around animal pets increases or decreases how good your mental health is?
As someone who does not suffer from poor mental health, do you think mental health affects daily life for one who suffers it? Why or why not?
As someone who suffers from poor mental health, how would you metaphorically describe it? Drowning? Suffocating? Sad?
Do you think having poor mental health is long lasting? Could a pet change that?
Hope this helps :)
