Can someone please give me a summary to the odyssey book 21?
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.
The unexpected plays an important part in this particular text. We also get a glimpse into gender roles and how they are manipulated in this piece. Before we go on to analyze, take a few minutes to write down what you think gender roles are in our society today. Gender refers to male or female and roles refer to the way they are expected to think or behave. Do you think there are clearly defined gender roles in today's society? Are men expected to act a certain way? Are women? Support your position with examples. Make sure that your sentences are legible and clear. Follow all writing conventions including those for capitalization and punctuation.
Answer:
Gender roles have changed through the years. Many years ago women had to stay home taking care of their children, they could not work. It is not like that anymore, but there are still a lot of gender roles in today's society. Nowadays, movements such us feminism are trying to get rid of them, however, it is impossible to say they are not there. Men and women are definitely expected to act a certain way in different situations. For example, women cannot have hair in their bodies but men have to, and women are expected to be sensitive but men cannot cry because that is not masculine. These examples are social constructions, the truth is women can have body hair and men can cry.
Explanation:
To complete this exercise, you have to write about gender roles giving examples. It's important to understand how gender roles have changed through the years to realize that they can keep changing because they are not universal truths.

In Sophocles's Greek tragedy Oedipus the King, Oedipus discovers that he has unknowingly killed his biological father and married his birth mother. The horror of this truth causes Jocasta, Oedipus’s wife/mother, to hang herself and Oedipus to stab himself in the eyes. What element of Greek tragedy do these final two acts give expression to?
A. catastrophe
B. hamartia
(C was removed for being wrong)
D. catharsis
E. hubris
Answer:
A. Catastrophe
Explanation:
In literature, the term catastrophe refers to the final resolution that brings the story to its end. When it comes to tragedies, the catastrophe often involves the downfall and death of the main character. In the case of Oedipus the King, the catastrophe is based on Oedipus' discovery that he married his own mother, which leads to her death and his self-mutilation.
Hamartia is the flaw that leads to the downfall of the tragedy's protagonist.
Catharsis is the purification and purgation of emotions that follows the observation of a tragedy.
Hubris is a characteristic of excessive confidence or arrogance. In Greek tragedies, this arrogance offends the gods and leads to a character's downfall.
The soup needs salt and pepper.
Which type of conjunction is the word in bold?
Answer:
Coordinating conjunction-?
Explanation:
I mean...... you didn't specify which word was in bold, because the whole sentence was in bold.. but if I were to guess or something "and" is an example of a conjunction so.... it would be a coordinating conjunction since it's connecting that sentence in a way. If that makes sense.
Hope that helps
If you mean ''and'', then its a coordinating conjunction.

The following sentence contains biased or sexist language:
Suzanne Morton played an excellent second base for us.
*True
*False
False
WHY?Well, there is nothing regarding gender in nor a negative or positive way, or putting it in a box of what genders can/cant do, or anything of that sort. And nothing negative in any way, really. There isn't really a preference or hate to others, so, since it does not have ANY sexist or biased language, the answer would be false.
