Hello. You did not submit the text to which this question refers, which makes it impossible for you to receive an answer with accuracy. However, I will try to help you in the best possible way.
The adjectives used in a text are the details that allow a reader to feel and see what an author experiences. This is because adjectives are descriptive words, which manage to make the reader create mental images, about the elements they describe, in addition to stimulating the five senses of the reader, allowing him to see and feel what the author experiences.

Which two words in this excerpt from Homer's Odyssey have meanings similar to "punishing someone who hurt you"?
I then: 'O nymph propitious to my prayer,
Goddess divine, my guardian power, declare,
Is the foul fiend from human vengeance freed?
Or, if I rise in arms, can Scylla bleed?'
Then she: 'O worn by toils, O broke in fight,
Still are new toils and war thy dire delight?
Will martial flames for ever fire thy mind,
And never, never be to Heaven resign'd?
How vain thy efforts to avenge the wrong!
Deathless the pest! impenetrably strong!
Furious and fell, tremendous to behold!
Answer:
The words are "avenge" and "vengeance".
Explanation:
The two words mentioned above have the same meaning as the expression "punish someone who hurt you" because they express the meaning of revenge and promote evil to a person who deserves it, because it has promoted evil to you.
The text presents these words as a feeling that the speaker has to compensate for bad situations that other individuals have done to him, he refrains from these words as a demon of the human race, something destructive, but that promotes justice to be done.

The border collie —— always ready to herd —— chased the kittens onto the back deck and into their bed. What is the function of the dashes in this sentence
Answer:
The answer is "to summarize the actions taking place".
Explanation:
Boundaries are providing inputs and are wonderful dogs in the family. Specific boundaries with the other dogs or cats are not nice, and others are great. The collies are also the finest breed of domestic sheep throughout the world, that's why the best example is the collie-border every time ready to hide the kittens mostly on the rear panel and also in their bed, to sum up.

They would like to keep the total cost of the meal for the entire family to be under $10. Note: Sales tax is included in the price of the food items. Combo meals include a soft drink.

Answer:
Explanation:
The Boulder family could order

I multiplied 1.59 x 5 and added 1.98. (1.59 x 5) + 1.98 or 1.50 for a total of $9.93 with the churros and $9.45 with the yogurt.
2) 3 pizza combos and 1 pretzels will be $8.46 with $1.54 left to buy 1 churro or yogurt.
I multiplied 2.49 x 3 and added 0.99. (2.49 x 3) + 0.99 + 0.99 or 1.50 for a total of $9.45 with the churro and $9.96 with the yogart.

Explanation:
Mutiny at Sea
You could hear the word spoken in hushed tones after dark. Mutiny. The faces of the deckhands had taken on the color of death. We were all hungry and exhausted, having spent more than 30 days at sea. Our captain had promised us a New World, but day and night we kept our eyes on the horizon without sighting land. To hope for land at this point was foolish. Indeed, the only thing that motivated us to keep sailing was the thought that perhaps we could band together and overthrow the captain.
Our captain was Christopher Columbus. He was stubborn and insisted that we had no choice but to continue. And yet, to us, it seemed the only reasonable thing to do was to turn back. We had been unprepared for such a long voyage, having brought insufficient food and water. And so we continued to talk of mutiny. Day and night, we waited for the right moment. With the cooperation of all onboard, a violent overtaking of the ship would surely be successful.
On the morning of October 12th, the unthinkable occurred. A lookout shouted that he had sighted land. His sighting was confirmed by the other ships. In an instant, the word "mutiny" died upon our lips and was forever forgotten.

Answer:
The Tree That Stands Tall.
Explanation:
The tree that stands tall in the middle of the city has seen every person's face that lived in the city for the past 300 hundred years. Hundred years back, many said she wouldn't live past more than 200 years. They said the soil could no longer sustain her with nutritients nor her trunks could carry the weight of her branches. But she outlived five generations of Mr.Tam Tam.
During the summers, she shakes her lushful green leaves and makes a rustling sound that soothes the ears of people living in the city. In winters, she remains quite but her head filled with glistening snow makes her look like a gaint cotton candy.
The tree that stands tall has lived for 300 years and she gave shade and unforgettable sight to millions of people. She is the guardian of the city yet the municipal and their emotionless cranes want to uproot her from her ground. They say 'she wouldn't live past 300 years' but I know she will live for another thousand years.
Personification- the tree is called as 'she'.
Imagery- her head filled with glistening snow makes her look like a gaint cotton candy.
Hyperbole - she will live for another thousand years.
