Answer:
Lord Helios, the sun god, has killed Odysseus's men for eating his cattle.
The crew has been attacked by an army at Cicones.
Zeus has sent a huge sea storm.
Some of the men have eaten the lotus flower and had to be rescued.
Explanation:
During his return home after the Trojan War, Odysseus ends up on the island of Cyclops Polyphemus. Odysseus enters the giant's cave with his men. When Polyphemus returns, he prevents them from leaving the cave, covering the entrance with a boulder. Then, he rips open and eats some of the crew. With the crew in mind, he quickly devises an escape plan. He tells Polyphemus that his name is "Nobody" and gives him wine to drink. The drunk giant falls asleep. Odysseus and his crew find a wooden pole, set it on fire and strike Polyphemus in the eye, blinding him. As Polyphemus screams in pain, the other cyclopians on the island respond to his call. Being outside the cave, they ask him who hurt him. Polyphemus replies, "Nobody's killing me," so the rest of the Cyclops leave him. Finally, Odysseus manages to escape and taunts the cyclops, who prays to his father Poseidon for revenge.
The main character's journey home takes him to the mermaid island. Sirens singing beautifully attract sailors who, listening, steer their ships towards the rocks. Odysseus plugs his people's ears with beeswax so they won't hear them sing. He himself wants to hear the sirens sing, so he orders the crew to tie him to the mast so he cannot go to the sirens when he hears their voices. Accordingly, the crew releases Odysseus after he begins to act calmly. Only then do they take the wax out of their ears.
After departing from the mermaid island area, Odysseus ends up on the island of Ogygia. It is inhabited by the nymph Calypso, who, in love with Odysseus, forces him to stay with her - it lasts 7 years. Hermes later comes to Calypso saying that the gods said she has to free Odysseus. Calypso promises Odysseus immortality if he stays, but he decides to return to his wife Penelope. Then he builds a raft and leaves the island.
After a sea storm, Odysseus ends up on Feaki Island. There, Nauzykaa meets him, who takes him to the palace of her father, King Alkinoos. While staying with the king, Odysseus recounts his adventures in his travels after the Trojan War. Alkinoos then gives Odysseus a ship and sends him to his home country, Ithaca.

Answer:
hope this is good
Explanation:
My chosen issue: Increase spending on those who in need
My name: ALEXANDER
I think that most of the people that we should spend is homeless people because homeless people tend to not have anywhere to live, they don’t have food. I think there should be a shelter for homeless people where supply food and shelter for those in need.
Most people can help by donating canned goods, clothes, and food, shelters to help people that don’t have food on the table. People that are donating to food shelters are a big help when it comes to the homeless in need. Here are a few reasons why.
A teen Kim that was 14 years old her dad was the only person that living with her and then moved out. Kim didn’t have anywhere to live she had to hear uncle Alberto’s house which no hot water, barely had any food, and smelt very bad. 5 months later, she got $180 for her birthday and then spent on alcohol and got arrested and $65 fine. And 5 months later she had nowhere to live. Homeless people like Kim are suffering to live. We can help live and food on the table with this non-profit shelter that helps homeless people.
So what do you say will you help us?
Answer:
My chosen issue:increasing the minimum driving age
Name-Heaven Orta
As we all know, the minimum driving age is sixteen for a driver's license. But I believe it should be higher than sixteen. This is because the younger you are, the little responsibility is. What I believe is that they should change it from eighteen to nineteen. But there isn't really a problem with the age of fifteen. I think that is a perfect age to begin taking lessons.
Its not the whole thing but its a start. :)

what is most likely relationship between the narrator and Fred Johnson
Answer:
1. C) Sarcasm
2. A) Animosity
3. A) They are co-workers.
4. C) a solitary life with a business life.
5. C) Live naturally.
6. D) should be eaten soon after it is caught
Explanation:
In this passage, the author describes a life of solitude. She tells us that she could not fish the night before, most likely because the fish has to be eaten fresh. This shows that the author provides her own food. This natural life is contrasted with the business life that "Fred Johnson" has. Due to the animosity and sarcasm in the speaker's voice, we can conclude that Johnson is most likely the speaker's co-worker.
The most likely relationship that is between the narrator and Fred Johnson is that Fred is the narrator's boss. Hence, Option B is correct.
What is a relationship ?Honesty, trust, respect, and open communication are essential components of healthy partnerships, which also require effort and compromise from both sides. No power disparity exists.
Partners respect one another's independence, are free to make their own choices without worrying about consequences or reprisals, and collaborate on decisions.
Any interpersonal connection including closeness on a physical or emotional level is referred to be an intimate relationship. Even while a physical relationship is most often the definition of an intimate relationship. The narrator's boss is Fred Johnson, therefore that is the most likely explanation for their relationship.
Therefore, Option B is correct.

Far out in the ocean there is a living clock. It is the fiddler crab, which shows the time of day by the color of its skin. In the daytime, the crab's
skin is dark and at night, the skin is pale. These color changes follow the regular 24-hour rhythm of day and night.
Scientists wanted to find out if the crab was really keeping time or was merely responding to sunlight since it grows darker when light
strikes it. They decided to see what would happen if they kept the crabs in a dark room for several months. Much to their surprise, they discovered
that the crab's skin still changed color, hour by hour, even when no sunlight struck the crab. And stranger still, there was one time of day when the
skin was extra dark. But this event did not happen at the same time every day. It was always 50 minutes later than the previous day. Here was an
important clue to another rhythm that the crab follows-the rhythm of the tides. The moment of darkest skin color is the exact moment of low tide
on the beach where the crab was born.
According to the article, at which moment is the fiddler crab the darkest?
Answer:
When the tide is low where the crab was born

. In "The Scarlet Ibis", why does the narrator set such demanding goals for Doodle?
Answer:
The narrator sets such demanding goals for Doodle because he wants Doodle to be normal.
Explanation:
"The Scarlet Ibis" is a short story written by James Hurst. The story is about two brothers– Brother and Doodle.
Doodle was an abnormal child in the house, seven years younger than Brother. The narrator puts such demanding goals for Doodle because he wanted to have a normal brother or sibling rather than a brother who is abnormal or crippling. Though the narrator helps Doodle in a way that no one else did, yet this increased his expectation and his high expectation is what led to Doodle's death out of exhaustion.

Kiche is the protective yet cautious mother wolf-dog in the novel White Fang.
Which is the best character analysis for Kiche?
Kiche showed fearlessness when protecting her cub from the pack of dogs. At the same time, she was meek with the humans at camp.
Kiche should not have been so afraid of the humans. Her strength would make it easy for her to run away with White Fang.
Kiche is not the kind of dog most people would like to own. Because she is half wolf, she would be very difficult to train.
Kiche was a lot like my dog. My dog is protective of our family when people come to the front door.
Answer:
Kiche showed fearlessness when protecting her cub from the pack of dogs. At the same time, she was meek with the humans at camp.
Explanation:
White Fang is a novel written by Jack London. It tells about White Fang, a wild wolfdog, and his journey to domestication in Yukon Territory and the Northwest Territories during the 1890s Klondike Gold Rush.
What we need to determine here is which option provides us with a detail that supports the given statement. The correct option is the first one. The fact that Kiche showed fearlessness when protecting her cub from the pack of dogs proves that she is protective. The fact that she was meek with the humans at the camp shows her more gentle, submissive side, which could come from her caution.
The rest of the options are either irrelevant or show only one side, which makes them incorrect.
Answer:
A: Kiche showed fearlessness when protecting her cub from the pack of dogs. At the same time, she was meek with the humans at camp.

What you think about robots (400 words) I’ll give brainliest
Answer:
Will robots change our lives in the future? It's a funny question to ask when they're changing our lives now in so many ways and they have been for years. From the first time you saw a toaster pop up by itself, we've casually accepted that machines can be trusted to do things for us.
They record our shows, cook our food, play our music, and even run our cars. We just don't see it because these "robots" don't have a face we can talk to or a butt we can kick.
Technically robots are automatic motorised tools, but they're generally known as clunky humanoid foils that have bumbled about popular media for almost a century - mechanised characters of humour, or menace without status, rendering their violent removal a minor plot without guilt.
Boom, there goes another one. The hero saves the day.
Sad actually. Mobile robots have gotten a bad rap from a lot of prejudicial movies and video games, and not the least from the unfulfilled promises of the 20th century. What's taking these scientists so long? If robots are coming, then why can't I just buy one to do my work while I watch TV?
Well, if you do watch TV, you'll "know" that's a recipe for disaster (which ain't true, but whatever...), which is why, after a lifetime building robots the old "serious" way, I decided to introduce something new to the mix: funny robots with personality flaws.
Since 2004 we've sold millions worldwide which has certainly changed some peoples lives and attitudes (mainly kids), and not one of which has ever threatened a single 007 agent. All part of my plan to get robots out of negative fiction and into entertaining reality, where yearly I foist my new devices on an unsuspecting populace.
But it's not world domination I'm after. I know four things robots can do right now that will change our lives for the future, and all in a good way. The first is entertainment (done that), the second is grunt work in dangerous places (coming up), third is elderly care, and last but not least is telepresence shopping, tourism, and assistance.
Imagine sitting at your computer and controlling a video game character through a mall or market, except it's not a game, it's a robot shopping for you in Tokyo while you sit comfortably in London. With a live video and audio feed so you could haggle, you drive a legged humanoid robot about your size so you get a good sense of what would fit, and afterwards you go for a walk to see what the countryside has to offer.
In a future where the cost and inconvenience of travel will likely rise, why not rent-a-rob for an hour just to make sure that resort is up to standard? Or to check in on your mum? Or to help out at a disaster site? Or just get outside in anonymity?
Right now all modern technology is designed to bring the world to you; phone, radio, television, internet, but if trends continue, robots will soon bring you to the world, everywhere, and at the speed of thought. A mind and a hand where it's needed while you sit safely at home and run the show.
It's a future goal -- something we know we can do if we can urge the market towards it, but it's one I like, and might even be able to do something about.
If it works, robots won't just change our lives in the future, they'll expand them. Not just for fun, but for necessity. We've taken the first steps into welcoming them into our homes, we just have to wait a bit to proctor them into making us more human.

B.
Cultural barriers can pose a challenge to creating a diverse workplace.
C.
Enforcing the use of English reduces challenges in creating a diverse workplace.
D.
People who are resistant to change embrace diversity easily.
Answer: Answer is B
Explanation:

A cultural barrier happens when people from different cultures are unable to understand someone from another culture whether it be language, motions, or customs. When there is a lack in understanding, there are inconveniences and difficulties that a team may face while trying to overcome the barriers. Each culture is different, but when you learn to understand someone else culture, you can work towards a better, diverse workplace."
