Read the excerpt from "The Quarrel" from "Stories from the Iliad."

Then Agamemnon said, “Achilles, valiant though you be, you shall not thus outwit me. Are you to keep your own prize, while I sit tamely under my loss and give up the girl at your bidding? No—Achilles, I will come to your tent and take your own prize, the maiden Briseis.”

What effect does the word tamely have on the meaning of the excerpt from "The Quarrel"?

A: It suggests that Agamemnon thinks Achilles is insulting him.

B: It reveals Agamemnon is mighty and cannot be controlled.

C: It suggests that Agamemnon is afraid Achilles will overpower him.

D: It reveals that Agamemnon is trying to belittle Achilles.

Answers

Answer 1
I’m pretty sure it’s c maybe
Answer 2

The word ' tamely ' have the meaning in the excerpt 'The Quarrel' as in option C. t suggests that Agamemnon is afraid Achilles will overpower him.

What the story  'The Quarrel' reveals ?

The story of "The Quarrel" reveals the tension and conflicts between the Greek heroes during the Trojan War. In the story, Achilles and Agamemnon, two of the most powerful Greek warriors, are involved in a dispute over a woman, Briseis, that Agamemnon has taken as a prize

The word "tamely" suggests that Agamemnon is afraid Achilles will overpower him. In the context of the passage, Agamemnon is responding to Achilles' demand that he return Briseis, a woman he had taken as a prize of war.

Agamemnon is angry and feels that he is being unfairly treated, but the use of the word "tamely" implies that he is also hesitant or apprehensive about confronting Achilles directly.

It suggests that Agamemnon is aware of Achilles' power and reputation as a warrior, and he may be unsure of how to respond to his challenge. Hence, C is correct.

What do you think are Paylor's motives in allowing Katniss to come face to face with Snow?

AKA: Hunger Games

Answers

Answer:

{hello kirito here i believe your answer is}-

Explanation:

Commander Paylor's early life is unknown, however, as a resident of District 8, she most likely worked in the district's textile factories like most other citizens.  

Katniss first meets Paylor when she goes to District 8's hospital in order to film a propo for the Airtime Assault on the Capitol. Paylor takes Katniss along with Gale Hawthorne, Boggs, and the TV crew into the hospital. Paylor watches Katniss closely, to see what she is made of and if they have been right to count on her.

Paylor in District 8.

After Katniss leaves the hospital, hovercrafts from the Capitol fly in and begin to bomb the hospital. In an effort to fight against the bombers, Katniss and Gale climb to the roof of a warehouse that has machine gun nests. This is where they run into Commander Paylor again. Together, they all work to destroy the other waves of hovercrafts that fly overhead.

Commander Paylor later returns in the story when Katniss is living in President Snow's mansion, awaiting his execution. Katniss follows the strong scent of Snow's roses until she finds a room that is being guarded by two soldiers who at first do not permit her entrance to the room because they are following President Coin's orders. However, when Paylor appears, she instructs the soldiers to let Katniss go in and they obey her authority. Katniss enters to find President Snow and the two of them have a brief conversation. Snow informs Katniss that it was not him who bombed the children and ultimately killed Prim, but that instead it was President Coin who was behind it. When Katniss emerges, Paylor asks her, "Did you find what you were looking for?", and Katniss holds up rose, which Paylor takes as an affirmative response. This seems to imply that Paylor was somehow aware of Coin's betrayal and wanted Katniss to find out.

Which statement is an example of a logical fallacy?

Most teachers surveyed support the need for more recess time for their students.
Seventy-eight percent of students improved their test scores when they were given extra recess time.

Answers

Answer: Students who have more recess will have no behavior problems in the classroom.

Explanation:

The first statement can be proven true. It is fact without bias.

The second statement contains a fallacy. Recess CAN reduce negative behavior in class, but not cut it out completely. Therefore, this statement is a logical fallacy, specifically an overgeneralization.

The third statement involves opinions of others in masses, so it can be proven true.

The fourth statement is a survey, and it can be proven true.

Michael Jordan is one of the best basketball players of all time. Like all athletes, he had dreams. He achieved them by setting goals—both short-term and long-term. In his autobiography, I Can’t Accept Not Trying: Michael Jordan on the Pursuit of Excellence, he speaks about short-term goal setting. Read the excerpt to see how he set these goals and what he did when he achieved them.

I approach everything step by step ... I had always set short-term goals. As I look back, each one of the steps or successes led to the next one. When I got cut from the varsity team as a sophomore in high school, I learned something. I knew I never wanted to feel that bad again ... So I set a goal of becoming a starter on the varsity. That’s what I focused on all summer. When I worked on my game, that’s what I thought about. When it happened, I set another goal, a reasonable, manageable goal that I could realistically achieve if I worked hard enough ... I guess I approached it with the end in mind. I knew exactly where I wanted to go, and I focused on getting there. As I reached those goals, they built on one another. I gained a little confidence every time I came through.

What lessons in Jordan’s description apply to anyone who is trying to achieve a goal? Identify two examples and examine why they’re relevant to any goal.

Answers

Answer:

he set goals and take things step by step

Explanation:
