develop of the text? *
A. It shows he’s insincere
B. It shows his worldliness
C. It builds tension for whats to come
D. It emphasizes his disregard for other cultures
Answer:
D. It emphasizes his disregard for other cultures
Explanation:
The excerpt shown above reveals Odysseus' contempt for cultures other than his own. This contempt made him not bother to obtain information about other peoples, much less to look for an information base that would allow him to get to know them better. This lack of knowledge generated many conflicts for him, which could be avoided with a little more consideration for foreign cultures.
Narrative Writing Write a story of about 250 -300 words which includes the line "It was the same bus I got onto every day, but that day, as I sat down, I sensed something was different.
Answer:
I woke up and it was a rainy day. It had never rained where I live, I didn't own the appropriate clothes for a rainy day so I wore my usual clothing. Every day I did the same thing. I woke up, had breakfast, dressed up, took the bus, worked, went back home, slept. I was tired of the routine and when I was falling asleep I wished I had a different day for a change. When I woke up that day, I felt my wish had come true. It was raining. I waited for the bus and when it arrived I had a strange feeling. It was the same bus I got onto every day, but that day, as I sat down, I sensed something was different.
After a few minutes, I realized the bus driver was taking another road. I wondered if I had taken the wrong bus, but I checked and it was the right one. When I was about to ask the bus driver what was he doing, he say 'we've arrived', everyone got off the bus and I followed them. I never imagined seeing something like what I saw when I wished I had a different day. There were aliens waiting for us in the bus stop!! No one looked surprised, I was shocked. When I tried to talk to the people who was next to me, they all looked at me as they didn’t understand what I was saying. I freaked out and that’s when I woke up. For real this time. I was dreaming!!! I looked at the window with a rare feeling about what I had just dreamt and it was raining...

Introduction
Hook: Are video games harmful?
Background Information: After a long day at school, nothing beats grabbing your electronic device and playing a video game. Sixty percent of Americans play video games on a daily basis. Although playing video games can seem to be a harmless way to unwind and relax, they have harmful impacts on your physical and mental health.-Thesis statement/claim
Body Paragraph 1
Topic Sentence: First of all, video games have a violent influence on people.
Evidence: According to Emily Sohn, “Violence is one of the biggest concerns...Some parents and teachers blame school shootings and other aggressive behavior on media violence-as seen in TV programs, movies, and video games.”
Bridge: If children often play video games that are violent, or are drawn to violent video games, it may cause them to think that violence is ok. Or if the person gets angry very easily, the anger may lead to violence.
Evidence: Emily continues to go on and explain that, “people who are already aggressive...are more drawn to violent games and TV shows.”
Bridge: Children that are more aggressive and competitive than others tend to like more violent games.
Body Paragraph 2
Topic Sentence: Secondly, playing too many video games per day can lead to lack of sleep.
Evidence: According to the text The Violent Side of Video Games, you could develop the “mean world syndrome.”
Bridge: If you develop the “mean world syndrome” and believe that the world is a bad place, it may cause you to think you're not safe, and the world is not safe.
Evidence: Emily delineates, “I still have trouble falling asleep if I watch the news on TV or read the newspaper right before going to bed.”
Bridge: In addition, watching something with violence right before you go to bed is not a good idea.
Body Paragraph 3
Counterclaim: Critics argue that video games are good for you, and inspire learning. Although, children don’t need to play violent video games, because the violence in games comes to reality, and causes children to believe they are not secure.
Turn back:
Conclusion
Thesis statement: Video games are not beneficial to our mental or physical health.
Summary of evidence: Violent video games can cause aggression, unsafety, anxiety, and violence in reality.
Last thought: Are video games harmful or harmless

housekeeper's room, in which they foregathered, had affected me curiously in spite
of my effort to keep myself at a matter-of-fact phase. They seemed to belong to another age, an older age, an age when things spiritual were indeed to be feared, when common sense was uncommon, an age when omens and witches were
credible, and ghosts beyond denying. Their very existence, thought I, is spectral;

Help 10 pts! (will mark brainliest ) Describe the ways in which the novel met or did not meet your expectations. How were both Victor Frankenstein and the monster he created different in Shelley's novel than in other interpretations or adaptations of the Frankenstein story that you've encountered? Explain any elements of the novel that you found surprising in terms of its treatment of characters, events, and themes.
Answer and Explanation:
The additions to "Frankenstein" leave a lot to be desired. This is because they present the monster as a violent creature, without the ability to think, being completely monstrous and without reasoning. This is completely different from the book, as we know that the monster is a violent creature, but we can see that its intellectual and cognitive capacity is very high. The monster is a big intellectual, which reinforces the understanding that he has about him, about his appearance and about the world around him. This promotes a depth in the work that we are unable to see in its adaptations. In the book all the actions of the monster are done on the basis of reason and thought, in the adaptations the monster acts in complete irrationality.
We can also see many differences in relation to Victor's representations. In the book victor he is a very intelligent man, however disturbed by everything that creation has caused. Even with the pertrbation and sadness, Victor maintains his intellectual integrity, which makes the fight, between him and the monster, more significant. In the adaptations Victor is shown as a crazy man, a completely insane scientist, which takes away all the depth of the character.
The adaptations of the work have shallow themes and are limited to themes such as the creation revolt against the creator and the dangers of science. The book has many themes that are deep and well explored. The book shows the fascination and fear of humans in relation to science and technology, in addition to topics such as alienation, revenge, ambition, dangers of knowledge, abandonment, depression, life, death, among others.

What is central idea of The Tragedy of Julius Caesar?William Shakespeare's The Tragedy of Julius Caesar is about the homicide of Caesar and the battle for force of Rome. The play manages topics of unwaveringness, great clashing with evil, appearance versus reality, ravenousness, power, and so forth.
In the given passage from the text, we see Cassius and Brutus, the two fundamental schemers of Caesar's homicide, in discussion. Cassius accepts that Brutus doesn't cherish him and that a companion ought to overlook his shortcomings.
This incited Brutus to concede that main toadies would overlook the incredible flaws of Cassius, which, to him are as immense as high Olympus. Here, the implication to Mount Olympus stresses the shortcomings of Cassius that Brutus finds.

ICU by Grace chua. How does the poet's use of the phrase "I can't see" in stanza 3 help
develop the theme of the poem?
Answer and Explanation:
"ICU" by Grace Chua is a poem that deals with the loss of a loved one and the understanding we have of death. The last stanza is the following:
But I can't see
for the life of me
the far-off
places
to which
you
stray
When the speaker says that she "can't see" those places, she means she cannot understand death nor what happens after it. She can surely understand pain. As she watches her loved one lying in a hospital bed, she can sense death is only a matter of time. She knows that person will soon be gone, and that she will hurt because of it. But where will that person go? What happens then? That is something she cannot see.
