Odysseus chooses to tell his crew only part of what Circe reveals about the dangers ahead. Do you think this is a wise decision? Why or why not?

Answers

Odysseus has already lost several men before landing in Circe's island, therefore these men have already been discouraged, demoralized, etc. For Odysseus to reveal more challenges to these men, would mean an additional amount of demoralization for them. This could lead to the crew leaving Odysseus behind. Therefore, I think it was wise for Odysseus not to tell them about the dangers.
I do believe it is a wise answer because if he let them know about the whole plan then the crew may have backed out. Because he didn't, the crew went along with it with no problem because they didn't know what was in store.

Esquivel knows the story of maiz is a myth, so why does she warn her daughter not to step on a kernel of corn?

Answers

Answer:

Because she wants to maintain the cultural tradition of her people.

Explanation:

Esquivel's family taught her that the corn was sacred, it represented fertility, so she should not step on the corn kernels. While she was a child, she did not really step on it, but by the time she reached adulthood she understood that it was a myth and there was no problem stepping on the corn kernels. However, she tells the same myth to her daughter and tells the little girl not to step on the corn kernels. Esquivel does this to maintain the cultural traditions of the family.
Perhaps she warns her daughter not to step on a kernel of corn because the corn represents fertility and the kernels are part of the ritual.

A. the strong role of the Roman Catholic Church in secular power structures
B. the refusal of the Roman Catholic Church to recognize others' beliefs
C. the familial nature of the Roman Catholic Church in people's daily lives
D. the direct, oppressive relationship between the pope and national leaders

The best answer is B. The line states that the Roman Catholic church is the "mother" and it has "principality" over others: this can be interpreted as a lack of recognition of the other churches. (and the other options cannot be inferred from the text).
