What is Eumaeus discussing here?"Zeus / the Old Thunderer, robs a man of half his virtue

the day the yoke clamps down around his neck."

the fate of prisoners

O why slaves rebel

why beggars steal

why Odysseus's servants neglected Argos

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The correct answer is “the fate of prisoners”. Taken from the poem “The Odyssey” attributed to Homer, the excerpt presented above narrates the fate of the prisoners when they lose their lords, since they are said to lose their “enjoyment” to perform their activities in a good way. In other words (metaphorical meaning), Zeus takes their virtue (moral standards) when this happens.

Answers

Everything inside the annex is good and nice whereas the world around them is falling into chaos and I think she sees that its only a matter of time before the fear of being taken to a camp become a reality. The menacing clouds signify fear and ominousness

Read the excerpt from Thoughts and Sentiments.It is therefore manifest, that something else ought yet to be done; and what is required, is evidently the incumbent duty of all men of enlightened understanding, and of every man that has any claim or affinity to the name of Christian, that the base treatment which the African Slaves undergo, ought to be abolished; and it is moreover evident, that the whole, or any part of that iniquitous traffic of slavery, can no where, or in any degree, be admitted, but among those who must eventually resign their own claim to any degree of sensibility and humanity, for that of barbarians.

An appositive phrase never contains a subject and predicate. true or false

Answers

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

Phrases are a group of words that functions as a single unit and that, unlike clauses, do not contain either a subject or a verb, and they don't contain a predicate either. Appositive phrases are no exception, therefore, they do not contain a subject, a verb or a predicate, and they do not expresse a complete thought.

Appositive phrases' function is to rename, identify or give further information of another noun placed right beside it. Examples of sentences containing appositives (underlined):

My neighbor Alex has been working in the garage all weekend.

Eli, the girl living next door, is out of town.
