Pls help I just need 4 or 5 sentences for a pre writing about a Greek mythical character

Answers

Answer:

Zeus was saved from being eaten by his father Kronos. When he was older Zeus rescued his brothers and sisters, fought his father and the other Titans and banished them. He and his brothers then drew lots to divide rule of the world. Zeus became the god of the sky, Poseidon, the god of the sea, and Hades, the god of the underworld. Zeus was also known as the father of the gods on Mount Olympus and men.

Explanation:

Answer:

In Greek mythology, Medusa (/mɪˈdjuːzə, -sə/; Μέδουσα "guardian, protectress")[1] also called Gorgo, was one of the three monstrous Gorgons, generally described as winged human females with living venomous snakes in place of hair. It is in the Roman poet Ovid’s Metamorphoses that her story is most deeply elaborated. She was lovely, according to the poem—until she and Poseidon had sex in Athena’s temple.[2] Athena then punished her for this violation, by turning her into the monstrous, stony-glanced creature that we know. Thus those who gazed into her eyes would turn to stone. Most sources describe her as the daughter of Phorcys and Ceto,[3] although the author Hyginus makes her the daughter of Gorgon and Ceto.[4]

Medusa was beheaded by the Greek hero Perseus, who thereafter used her head, which retained its ability to turn onlookers to stone, as a weapon[5] until he gave it to the goddess Athena to place on her shield. In classical antiquity the image of the head of Medusa appeared in the evil-averting device known as the Gorgoneion.

According to Hesiod and Aeschylus, she lived and died on an island named Sarpedon, somewhere near Cisthene. The 2nd-century BC novelist Dionysios Skytobrachion puts her somewhere in Libya, where Herodotus had said the Berbers originated her myth, as part of their religion. She remained a priestess to Athena after her death and was risen with fresh hair.

Which sentence contains a pronoun without a clear antecedent? After Kara and Maddie run one lap, they will do lunges. Because Troy lost his phone, he could not respond to text messages. Before the lecture, they will hand out packets of information. Diego and Liza prepared themselves for a difficult debate.

Answers

The correct answer is Before the lecture, they will hand out packets of information.

Explanation:

In sentences, it is common a noun previously mentioned is replaced later using a pronoun such as she, he, they, etc.; this makes the sentence to flow naturally as it avoids repetition of the same noun. For example, in the sentence "Gabriella does not like vanilla ice cream; she prefers chocolate one" the noun Gabriella is later replaced by the pronoun "she". Also, Gabriella is considered as the antecedent.

This does not occur in the sentence "Before the lecture, they will hand out packets of information" because there is not an antecedent for the pronoun "they" or there is not mentioned who or what will hand out the packets of information.

Answers

Answer:

The scientist received high marks for his brilliance and his humour.

Explanation:

Faulty parallelism is an error in the structure of a sentence characterized by two parts of the sentence having different structures.

In spoken communication it can be easily heard, and although the intended meaning of the sentence can be understood, it usually confuses the listener and gives the impression of an uneducated speaker.

However, it can easily be corrected by rewriting sentence using only one structure for both parts. This particular sentence could be rewritten as:

1) The scientist received high marks for his brilliance and his humour.

or

2) The scientist received high marks because he was brilliant and because he was humorous.
