Read this excerpt from “The Myth of Hercules.”


Hercules was the son of the great god Zeus and a human woman named Alcmene. The goddess Hera did not like Alcmene and vowed to destroy Hercules when he was born. Hera sent two snakes to kill the baby as he lay in his crib, but Hercules was strong and strangled the snakes with his tiny hands before they could bite him with their sharp fangs.


The excerpt gives clues that later in the story, Hercules will most likely


prove that he does not have heroic traits.

seek revenge against the goddess Hera.

make peace with the goddess Hera.

show strength when facing obstacles.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: show strength when facing obstacles.

Explanation:

Hercules as a baby was strong enough to strangle two snakes when they came to kill him. This shows him overcoming an obstacle with strength at such a tender age.

It therefore stands to reason that as he grows up, he will only get stronger and thus be able to show even more strength in any obstacle facing him and from what we know of Hercules, he did just that.

C. Describing a sensory experience in terms that usually apply to a

D. Borrowing words from another language to express an emotion

Answers

Answer: C

Explanation:

Describing a sensory experience in terms that usually apply to a different sense

Describing a sensory experience in terms that usually apply to a different sense is synesthesia.

What do you mean by synesthesia?

A neurological disease known as synesthesia causes automatic, involuntary sensations in a second sensory or cognitive route in response to stimulation of the first (such as vision).

Simply explained, simultaneous activation of two unrelated senses occurs when one sense is active. For instance, this could happen when you hear music and experience the swirls or color patterns that go with it.

As it is simpler to draw links between concepts, synesthesia can improve cognitive skills like creativity and memory. Synesthesia was a condition that famous artists like Vincent Van Gogh and Vladimir Nabokov claimed to have.

Associative synesthesia, in which the senses are linked and associated in the mind, or projective synesthesia, in which the images and colors are projected into reality.

What is beauty ?? Define beauty? why is beauty important ​

Answers

Answer:

Beauty is commonly described as a feature of objects that makes these objects pleasurable to perceive. Such objects include landscapes, sunsets, humans and works of art. Beauty, together with art and taste, is the main subject of aesthetics, one of the major branches of philosophy.

Answer:

Beauty: A combination of qualities, such as shape, color, or form, that pleases the aesthetic senses, especially the sight.

Beauty is a positive and dynamic energy that has the power to convey emotion and express individuality as well as collectiveness. It can be felt through each of our senses, yet it is more magnificent when it transcends all five.

When we find beauty in something, we are making the fullest use of our biological capacities. Another way of putting it: When we become aware of life’s beauty, that’s when we are most alive.

But he followed the wonderful organ and the wonderful man who played it, all day long, as happy as he could be.When Giuseppe was seven years old his father, though only a poor innkeeper, bought him a spinet, a sort of small piano. So faithfully did the little boy practice that the spinet was soon quite worn out and new jacks, or hammers, had to be made for it. This was done by Stephen Cavaletti, who wrote a message on one of the jacks telling that he made them anew and covered them with leather, and fixed the pedal, doing all for nothing, because the little boy, Giuseppe Verdi, showed such willingness to practice and to learn.
