In the conflict between Polyphemus and Odysseus, which is more important: physical strength or intelligence? What makes you think so?
Answer:
Physical Strength
Explanation:
Odysseus, as a noble Greek warrior, is expected to possess great physical strength, and, in a number of places throughout The Odyssey, Odysseus displays feats of strength far in excess of anything anyone else could do. When he returns at long last to Ithaca, disguised as a beggar, he accepts Penelope's challenge to shoot an arrow through the gaps of twelve axes lined in a row. But this is not the real test of strength; it's the fact that Odysseus is able to string the bow in the first place that shows this. No other man could possibly hope to perform this great feat, and all the suitors fail.
Stabbing out the eye of the Cyclops Polyphemus was another example of Odysseus's enormous strength. He uses a large stake which he needs to lift up all by himself before driving it deep into Polyphemus's eye. And that takes some doing. Also, Odysseus, at the prompting of Tiresias the blind seer, lifts a huge wooden oar and carries it over his shoulder, walking so far inland that people won't know what it is. They'll think it's a winnowing fan. Odysseus can then make a sacrifice to Poseidon, god of the sea and cause of most of Odysseus's trials and tribulations.
Much of what Odysseus does in The Odyssey shows how clever and crafty he is. However, he is one of the most heroic soldiers of the Trojan War. Had he not been physically strong, he could not have held such respect among his men.
Hope this helps, have a great Wednesday!

Read the poem.
The Whippoorwill
by Madison Julius Cawein
I.
Above lone woodland ways that led
To dells the stealthy twilights tread
The west was hot geranium red;
And still, and still,
Along old lanes the locusts sow
With clustered pearls the Maytimes know,
Deep in the crimson afterglow,
We heard the homeward cattle low,
And then the far-off, far-off woe
Of "whippoorwill!" of "whippoorwill!"
II.
Beneath the idle beechen boughs
We heard the far bells of the cows
Come slowly jangling towards the house;
And still, and still,
Beyond the light that would not die
Out of the scarlet-haunted sky;
Beyond the evening-star's white eye
Of glittering chalcedony,
Drained out of dusk the plaintive cry
Of "whippoorwill," of "whippoorwill."
III.
And in the city oft, when swims
The pale moon o'er the smoke that dims
Its disc, I dream of wildwood limbs;
And still, and still,
I seem to hear, where shadows grope
Mid ferns and flowers that dewdrops rope,
Lost in faint deeps of heliotrope
Above the clover-sweetened slope,
Retreat, despairing, past all hope,
The whippoorwill, the whippoorwill.
Whippoorwill - a nocturnal bird with a distinctive call that is suggestive of its name
Question 1
Part A
What is a theme of “The Whippoorwill?
In order to move forward, people must leave the past behind.
People sometimes long for what they cannot have.
There is a balance between nature and the city.
Nature soothes the heart and calms the mind.
Question 2
Part B
How does the theme in Part A develop in the poem?
The city sky is filled with cloudy, gray smoke and it makes the speaker feel sad that the moon is hidden.
The speaker thinks he hears the sound of the whippoorwill while walking in the city.
The speaker recalls his fondest memories of nature while living in the city.
The woeful sound of the whippoorwill echos the despair the speaker feels living in the city.

Ok so can yall help me review my paragraph b4 I submit it?
The question to this is: Explain how natural resources are identified and why natural resources are unevenly distributed. Be sure to use information from the reading to support your answer. (pls don't copy mine if yall have this too, i don't wanna have to redo it :(
--->Natural resources are identified in mainly one way. According to the article, satellites and machines are used to identify. Satellites can scan the Earth's surface to detect natural resources. The colors shown on the results of the scan represent the types of rocks in the area. For example, yellow-like, orange, and green colors represent limestone, sandstone, and gypsum, respectively. Satellites can also locate vegetation. The displayed shade of red helps scientists identify the trees and plants because each type of plant has its own “brightness” or “darkness". Natural resources are often unevenly distributed. But, this is not humans' fault. Some resources require certain living and temperature conditions. For example, the amount of copper ore produced depends on the amount of volcanic activity. Sometimes, in certain areas of the world, there is more salty water than fresh. This occurs because freshwater travels over many surfaces before it even gets to the ocean. Hence, you may now understand the reason how natural resources are identified, and why natural resources are unevenly distributed.

Write an introductory paragraph for a paper comparing the poems "Harlem" by Langston Hughes and “Hold Fast Your Dreams” by Louise Driscoll.
Answer: I believe that the poems Harlem and Hold fast are completely different. I believe this because "Hold your fast dreams" is saying to keep your dreams and to hold it and "Harlem" talked about dreams fading away like old meat. Another reason is because "Harlem" is comparing a dream to other things like crust and sugar, though on the other hand "Hold Your Fast Dreams" is saying to put your dreams in your heart and believe.

Two-Bit takes issue with the newspaper that says Johnny, Ponyboy, and Dally “turn heroes” and says, “Y’all were heroes from the beginning. You just didn’t ‘turn’ all of a sudden.” Thinking about Two-Bit’s background and family, why does he think so highly of the boys?
Answer: "Two-Bit’s life has been easier than the lives of the other three boys, all of whom have lost parents or been abandoned/neglected by their parents. Two-Bit has a loving mom who goes easy on him and he’s able to have a goofy, fun-loving nature because of his mother’s love. To face life without the support of a parent is, to Two-Bit, a heroic act."
Explanation:
sources: bmtheoutsiders2015
If you have any questions feel free to ask - Mark
Answer:
He’s in bad shape. He’s badly burned and has a broken back. Ponyboy is relieved that his face looks the same, but there’s a big question as to whether he’ll even survive. If he does survive, he’ll be in a wheelchair for the rest of his life. It doesn’t look good.
Why would being paralyzed and/or wheelchair-bound be worse for Johnny than for someone else?
If he were crippled, he’d be stuck in a house with horrible parents who don’t like him and wouldn’t take good care of him. It would be as if he were trapped in a prison. He’s also a physical kid, who likes to play football and join in on fights. That whole part of his life, a part that brings some joy to his sad life, would be gone.
Ponyboy says that people often seem younger when they’re asleep. Why, do you suppose, this is true?
When sleeping, all of the worries and fears that we hold in our waking lives temporarily disappear. While asleep, we look like our true, unburdened selves. In truth, these young men are still just boys, too young to have so much weight on their shoulders.

What is the main problem with this conclusion paregraph? Thesis statement: Fun activities should not be classified as "for boys" or "for girls."
Main points
• Classifying activities according to gender keeps kids from trying new activities
• Labeling activities by gender makes some kids feel bad about the activities they enjoy
• All kids should be supported in their talents and interests.
Conclusion: In conclusion classifying activities as "for boys' or "for girls" is unfair and bad for our society. If we want kids to try new activities and feel good about the activities they choose, we have to do away with the labels Family and friends should support boys and girls in whatever interests them. In the same way, it's also not fair to say that certain colors or clothing items are "for boys' or "for girls." When we stop labeling activities, we'll uncover many hidden talents in both boys and girls. A It does not restate the thesis B. It does not have a satisfying close OC. It adds ney information. D. it is missing one of the main points.

Passage:
From Guiseppi Verdi by Thomas Trapper
Whenever the organ man came into the village of Roncole, in Italy (where Verdi was born, October 10, 1813), Verdi could not be kept indoors. But he followed the wonderful organ and the wonderful man who played it, all day long, as happy as he could be.
When Giuseppe was seven years old his father, though only a poor innkeeper, bought him a spinet, a sort of small piano. So faithfully did the little boy practice that the spinet was soon quite worn out and new jacks, or hammers, had to be made for it. This was done by Stephen Cavaletti, who wrote a message on one of the jacks telling that he made them anew and covered them with leather, and fixed the pedal, doing all for nothing, because the little boy, Giuseppe Verdi, showed such willingness to practice and to learn. Thus the good Stephen thought this was pay enough.
