Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The correct answer should be letter (D.) imagery.

Imagery is a type of literary device used to narrate events using descriptive words to engage visualization to the readers. It is an effective tool in literary works because it helps readers analyze the ideas presented by the writer in the most creative way possible.
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

The correct option is letter B (IRONY).

Explanation:

In "To Build a Fire" by Jack London, the author uses many instances of irony (situational irony). When the man, after having fallen into the water, finally succeeds in getting the fire on, the snow falls from the tree over him and the fire. As a result, the fire dies.

However, this instance of situational irony helps the plot move because he has to start a new fire.

Based on this passage of The Odyssey, one can conclude that the ancient Greeks greatly valued _______A. DemocracyB. BraveryC. KnowledgeD. Relaxation

Answers

B - Bravery

Although you didn't provide the passage, there are various reasons as to why bravery is the answer.

A is incorrect as the Odyssey never focused on democracy as shown through kings of many lands since Odysseus himself was the king of Ithaca with his son being the rightful heir of the throne.

C, knowledge, is incorrect as characters in the Odyssey never valued knowledge. The Odyssey was filled with battles and overcoming hardships, not gaining knowledge and wisdom, thus ruling out C as the possible answer.

D, relaxation, is an answer you can immediately rule out. Throughout the Odyssey, the stories and the movies, you can see that all characters are constantly bustling and working for whatever they hope to accomplish. Although they may value relaxation, they seem to value work more so.

Hope this helps!

Your answer should be Bravery. You're Welcome
