alyana read the following passage in a myth.

odysseus was alone, lost, and close to despair. there was nothing on the horizon. odysseus—the great and experienced warrior, hero of battles, and slayer of terrible monsters—could see nothing but small rolling waves. the vast ocean, in every direction, seemed to go on forever before finally meeting the horizon.

which statement is true about this passage?

a.
the first sentence suggests the myth-tellers liked to be alone on the water.

b.
the phrase “hero of battles, and slayer of great monsters” suggests these are unwelcome characteristics in the myth-tellers’ culture.

c.
the passage suggests the myth-tellers typically lived with pets like dogs and birds.

d.
the fact that character odysseus is in the ocean suggests that the myth-tellers may have lived near an ocean or sea.

if this is a true or false question its true

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
