Which of these flaws does Ulysses reveal while leaving the island after blinding the Cyclops?a need for comfort

a need for companionship

a desire for glory

a desire for riches

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The correct answer is - a desire for glory.

Once he has managed to blind the Cyclops, Ulysses wanted his accomplishments to be acknowledged, which is why he started shouting his name for everyone to hear. Up to that point, he was travelling incognito, but after that, he wanted everyone to know who he is and how he managed to outsmart the Cyclops.

Answer 2
Answer: The correct answer is "a desire for glory". He wishes to be acknowledged and glorious so much that he reveals his name so that everyone may know it, which backfires on him later when Poseidon becomes angry at him.

One peculiarity of Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea, is its _____.complex, stream-of-thought expression
very simple language
use of colloquial foreignisms

Answers

The correct answer is very simple language

Hemingway is famous for this. Sometimes he could write entire passages with no words larger than 2 syllables.

Answer:

Very simple language.

Explanation:

Ernest Hemingway wrote this famous little novel about Santiago, an old Cuban fisherman, beaten down by life, but not yet resigned to letting go of it. Though this novel, like it is most characteristic of Hemingway, is written in a very simple, direct and virile style, the depth of the story is heart wrenching and undoubtedly it is one of the most beautiful pieces of literature of the 20th century.
