We thus see that the Greeks of the early ages knew little of any real people except those to the east and south of their own country, or near the coast of the Mediterranean. Their imagination meantime peopled the western portion of this sea with giants, monsters, and enchantresses; while they placed around the disk of the earth, which they probably regarded as of no great width, nations enjoying the peculiar favor of the gods, and blessed with happiness and longevity.

Read the following excerpt from The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling.

The Law of the Jungle, which never orders anything without a reason, forbids every beast to eat Man except when he is killing to show his children how to kill, and then he must hunt outside the hunting-grounds of his pack or tribe. The real reason for this is that man-killing means, sooner or later, the arrival of white men on elephants, with guns, and hundreds of brown men with gongs and rockets and torches. Then everybody in the jungle suffers. The reason the beasts give among themselves is that Man is the weakest and most defenseless of all living things, and it is unsportsmanlike to touch him. They say too—and it is true—that man-eaters become mangy, and lose their teeth.

What is the most important purpose of the narrator in this excerpt?

to explain that human beings are the weakest of all the animals in the jungle
to explain why Shere Khan will kill a human being instead of another animal
to explain why the animals of the jungle typically do not kill human beings

Some big themes in The Call of the Wild are civilization vs the wild, follow your instincts, and the value of work.

    I think The Call of the Wild will end with Buck returning to his wolf side and becoming one with the wilderness. This goes along with civilization vs the wilderness because Buck really loves John Thornton but he finds a thrill in doing wild things like killing his own food and exploring. It also goes with following your instincts because Buck wants to go towards the wild call that he hears so often, and which when he does he can connect with his true self.

help me with them two

Answers

Explanation:

The poem explores themes of Race, Freedom, Justice, Equality, Childhood, Dreams and aspirations and Religion. The tone is wistful as the boy repeatedly expresses a longing for the things that will make his society a better place and make him safe and happy.

"Dreaming Black Boy" and "Epitaph" are two poems which address the issues of oppression and racism. ... The persona tries to use his education to try to escape the harsh reality of racism. He not only mentions what is going on around him now, but also the past and even how he would like things to be in the future.

Answer:

two themes that could be identified in the poem dreaming black boy are;

dreams- this team is about the black boy who dreams and wishes that everything he wants could be ordinary as everyone.racism- because he is a black boy and maybe the other classmates are not black they don't like him just because he is a black boy so this is called racism.

definition dreaming in the poem

to my opinion I think dreaming it means that the black boy wishes for everything he wants to be an ordinary as his other classmates.

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

I’m pretty sure it’s c maybe

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.
