2. Which of these is an example of hubris?
Odysseus gives Polyphemus wine to drink and asks for a gift from Polyphemus.
Odysseus weeps for his wife and son while imprisoned on Ogygia.
Odysseus keeps his focus on getting back to Ithaca.
After escaping, Odysseus continues to taunt Polyphemus and brags about his exploits.
Answer:
After escaping, Odysseus continues to taunt Polyphemus and brags about his exploits.
Explanation:
The term "hubris" refers to the quality of a person in having or exhibiting extreme pride and ambition in his/her own actions and abilities. This personality quality of a person, in the over-confidence of a person, will oftentimes lead to an inescapable downfall later on.
In the epic "The Odyssey" by Homer, hubris is one character trait of Odysseus. One such example is when they were on the island of Polyphemus. After 'stealing' from Polyphemus, Odysseus lost many of his men to the cyclops. But despite that, he brags about his 'loot' and even taunts the one-eyes monster. He knows that it was against the wish of the gods to get involved or 'disturb' the cyclops, and that 'looting' a demi-god was against the rules, Odysseus couldn't help but brag about it, his bravery and ability in escaping the clutches of the demi-god.
Thus, the correct answer is the fourth option.

Read the excerpt from Julius Caesar, act 2, scene 1.
BRUTUS. It must be by his death: and for my part
I know no personal cause to spurn at him
But for the general. He would be crowned:
How that might change his nature, there’s the question.
It is the bright day that brings forth the adder,5
And that craves wary walking. Crown him that,
And then I grant we put a sting in him
That at his will he may do danger with.
Th’ abuse of greatness is when it disjoins
Remorse from power. And to speak truth of Caesar . . .10
Which statement best describes the meaning of the imagery in the line "It is the bright day that brings forth the adder”? (An adder is a snake.)
The sun shines on Caesar, but he must watch his steps around others.
Brutus will kill Caesar with a bite of stinging fangs.
The warm praise of the people can cause Caesar to be more powerful and dangerous.
Some animals cannot be trusted, no matter what.
Answer: The warm praise of the people can cause Caesar to be more powerful and dangerous.

This explains the reason why Brutus killed Julius Caesar. He believed that Caesar was a good man but he did not think it would last as Caesar got more powerful. He believed that Caesar being powerful would corrupt him and make him dangerous.
This is what he meant by the bright day brings out the adder. In order words, the more powerful Caesar is = A brighter day.
Caesar becoming more powerful = the nature of a snake manifesting from him making him more dangerous.
Answer:
The warm praise of the people can cause Caesar to be more powerful and dangerous.

What is the Friar pondering at the beginning of scene 3 and how does it contribute to the overall themes/ideas of the play?
Hello. You did not enter the text to which this question is related, which prevents it from being answered. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.
It is only possible to answer your question by reading the play completely. By doing the reading you will be able to identify the themes that the play presents. These themes are the main subjects covered, that is, they are the subjects that the author wanted to expose during the exhibition of the play. "Romeo and Juliet," for example, portrays themes such as the inevitability of fate and the violence of forbidden love.
In this case, by recognizing the themes presented in the play, you will be able to identify how Friar's behavior, in the play that your question refers to, manages to address these themes. Using "Romeo and Juliet" as another example, we can see that when helping Romeo and Juliet, Friar Laurence addresses the theme of the inevitability of destiny, as he believes that it is the destiny of young people to be together and that is why he decides to help them.
Read the excerpt from The War of the Worlds. A large portion of the cylinder had been uncovered, though its lower end was still embedded. As soon as Ogilvy saw me among the staring crowd on the edge of the pit he called to me to come down, and asked me if I would mind going over to see Lord Hilton, the lord of the manor. The growing crowd, he said, was becoming a serious impediment to their excavations, especially the boys. Which context clues effectively help indicate the meaning of the word excavations as it is used in the excerpt
This question is missing the answer choices. I have found them online; they are the following:
(Select all that apply)
edge of the pit
among the staring crowd
had been uncovered
was still embedded
Answer:
The context clues which effectively indicate the meaning of "excavations" are:
edge of the pit
had been uncovered
was still embedded
Explanation:
"War of the Worlds" is a science-fiction book by H. G. Wells. The plot concerns a Martian invasion of our planet.
The space ships sent to Earth by the Martians are shaped like cylinders. Instead of landing softly, they do it quite forcefully, so part of the cylinder ends up buried in the ground. In the excerpt we are analyzing here, the cylinder is being excavated, that is, dug up. Even if the reader does not know the meaning of the word "excavations" as it is used in the excerpt, he can infer it from the clues:
edge of the pit
had been uncovered
was still embedded
The clues above help readers visualize the half-buried space ship and understand that some of it has already been dug up.

Who hurt you so, My dear? Who, long ago When you were very young. , Did, said, became, was...something that you did not know Beauty could ever do, say, be, become?-- So that your brown eyes filled With tears they never, not to this day, have shed... Not because one more boy stood hurt by life, No: because something deathless has dropped dead-- An ugly, an indecent thing to do-- So that you stood and stared, with open mouth in which the tongue Froze slowly backward toward its root, As if it would not speak again, too badly stung By memories thick as wasps about a nest invaded To know if or if not you suffered pain.

Write an argumentative essay for or against always telling the truth, even in situations that may be hurtful to others.
Pls make it about always lying.
Needs to be 2 paragraphs.
Answer:
Ok so i am against telling the truth and telling the truth i am for both this is because in a life or death situation sometimes you have to lie. But when your telling the truth less punishments come your way The truth is essential to all of humanity. Without it, society would be in a world full of chaos. Not only would trust fall apart, but exaggerated denial, deception, and the fear of love would come into play. Lying will always come with an expense.
Without truth, there is no trust. People will lose faith and know to never trust you again, which down the road can lead to trust issues in people close to them such as family members, friends, or lovers.
Even if a situation that may be harmful to someone else, consider it in a way that if they were to be lied to it'd make it even worse. Self-confidence would diminish and they could find themselves in a state of loneliness and misunderstanding.
Lying leads to worse cases than negative truths. Take for example, a boy wants to be become a musician. He always hits the wrong note when trying to play a g-chord, and so he becomes upset and asks if he's bad. A girl replies, "No, you're amazing!" and he continues pursuing a career choice without fixing his mistakes, ending up costing him the career.
The truth may hurt, but it is nothing compared to deception. No matter the case, cause, or correlation, honesty should always come first regardless of the situation.

Explanation:
summarize FDR's press release. Then, answer the following questions:
Based on the press release, what is FDR's expectation of how the war will end? What specific examples of his language indicate his beliefs about who will be victorious?
Soldiers themselves, world leaders, and the general population of other countries expressed shock at the degree of abuse inflicted on the Jews and other minorities after the war ended. This press release makes it clear that reports came in early, so what do you think contributed to the shock? Why was the discovery so difficult when reports were already enough to put together a panel to prosecute war criminals?
Consider how information usually got reported during WWII; how might the world's shock at the war crimes be related to the ways that Wiesel described his community being unprepared for the reality of relocation because of the reports they received about the war ending soon?
Answer:
Explanation:
There are several factors involved in the answer to this. It is mind blowing to say the least.
1. Imagine yourself listening to the news. Would you be interested in this one press release. If you say yes, then you have to consider Vietnam very carefully. Vietnam was on the news night after night. People were glued to their TVs to see what atrocities were being dug up. Not only that, but American body bags arrive in every state in the Union. Still there was a massive split in the country for the war and against it. Young people refused to go to there because they knew their chances of being unscathed was small. Now here's the question. Yes FDR made his position very clear, but who read it? Why would they care, when mother's wept openly about their sons dying in the Pacific and in Europe. That's what people were concerned about. And avenging Pearl Harbor was upmost in their mind.
2. I only have time for one more point. Think about anti Semitism. Do you think America and any part of Europe was free of it? I propose not. Sir Martin Gilbert was the master historian of the Holocaust. He wrote a book entirely about those who helped the Jewish people. He knew of 10000 different cases including 2 dogs one of whom was shot because he would not attack Jewish refugees. Many of the 10000 refused to talk about their experiences during the war because they said openly that they would be attacked for helping helping Jews. Many books have been written about the Holocaust and its aftermath and even into this century we have people that have denied it ever happened. I don't know what to tell you to read. If you are a college student, prowl around in your library or search for the Holocaust on the internet. It's a very depressing subject. You'll likely come across other Holocausts. It's hard to believe sometimes, that we are human, and not beasts.
your recent article about the new elementary school being built this year in Jamesville was not very representative. Your writer made it seem like every parent in the neighborhood is thrilled about the new school. When the same process happened in campustown, parents who opposed the new school were interviewed along with those who supported it. Why does the writer most likely include the example of campustown in his letter?
A. It illustrates how complicated the process of writing these articles is.
B. It is an example of how the letter writer wishes the article had treated the subject in Jamesville.
C. It shows that different town have opposing beliefs about the building of new schools.
D. It is a counterargument to the idea that no parents opposed to the plan were interviewed in Jamesville.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
A makes a lot of sense
