Answer from: jenny3661

The central idea should be included in a paraphrase of this excerpt is The forces sent by Cicones to stop the plundering of Odysseus and his men were skilled and powerful.

Explanation:

The question is not complete since it does not provide the excerpt, here is the excerpt:

'Out to sea again!' My men were mutinous,

fools, on stores of wine. Sheep after sheep they

butchered by the surf, and shambling cattle,

feasting,—while fugitives went inland, running

to call to arms the main force of Cicones.

This was an army, trained to fight on horseback

or, where the ground required, on foot. They came

with dawn over that terrain like the leaves

and blades of spring. So doom appeared to us,

dark word of Zeus for us, our evil days.

This excerpt from the Odyssey, uses a lot of words to describe the forces of Cicones that have powerful meanings to refer to the army, some of these examples are "like the leaves and blades of spring" and "doom appeared to us", "dark word of Zeus", these lines create a visual image of a powerful adversary.

Plz me asap select the correct text in the passage. which two sentences in the passage introduce counterarguments to the speaker’s position in favor of recycling? we only have a limited number of resources to serve humans around the globe. by recycling and reusing the resources we have, we can preserve what untouched natural resources we have while extending the life of the resources we’re currently using. admittedly, we cannot reuse or recycle all of the materials we use in our daily lives.some materials are not recyclable, such as certain food containers.others items are not biodegradable regardless of what we reuse them for, and that can create problems in the long run. my opponent would use these limitations of our ability to recycle to counter my points about the materials we can recycle.however, this is not an “all or nothing” scenario.we should reuse and recycle the materials that we can and try our best not to buy materials and products that can’t be reused or recycled.by doing our part and encouraging others to do their part, we can increase our chances of conserving our remaining natural and manmade resources over time.

Read the excerpt from "home front diary." jimmy simmons stopped by today to tell me that he had enlisted in the army. he asked me if i would write to him, and i said i would. i told him that i've been writing to my uncle arthur and susan's cousin john for about a year, and as an experienced correspondent i had some advice about all the censorship. "don't write down any information about your location or the number of soldiers in your unit because the censors will cut all of that away," i said. "in my experience, loose lips not only sink ships, they make letters look like snowflake decorations! ” well, he belly laughed over that one. how is the author's perspective different from jimmy's? the author has been to war and she can give jimmy advice. jimmy has become a soldier and does not believe the author’s advice. the author has experience writing to soldiers but jimmy does not. jimmy has more experience at letter writing than the author.
