How did King Minos test Perseus's claim to be a demigod? What happened?

Answers

Answer 1

This may be wrong because I haven't heard this story in a while, I've forgotten the names so I could be referring to a different version of Perseus's story

Answer:

King Minos tested Perseus's claim to be a demigod by tasking him with the retrieval of Medusa's head. While this seemed like an impossible task, Perseus was granted Athena's shield which had such a shine to it that it was almost a mirror(and another gift from the god, I believe it was Hermes's boots but am not sure). As Perseus arrived at the Temple of Medusa, the gorgon heard him and attempted to sneak up on Perseus. While she was extremely quiet, Perseus spotted her reflection in Athena's shield and cut off Medusa's head. He brought the head back to King Minos to prove himself.

o The car I just bought

o of repairs
The car I just bought needs
o all kinds of repairs

Answers

Explanation:

The sentence from your question should be:

The car I just bought needs all kinds of repairs.

In this case, if we are looking for an adjective clause, that would be ''I just bought''.

The adjective clause is describing the noun in the sentence and in this case, the noun is ''The car''.

This type of clause is considering a dependent clause and usually, this type is not changing the meaning of the sentence.

Helen Grey
By Christina Georgina Rossetti
Because one loves you, Helen Grey,
Is that a reason you should pout,
And like a March wind veer about,
And frown, and say your shrewish say?
Don't strain the cord until it snaps,
Don't split the sound heart with your wedge,
Don't cut your fingers with the edge
of your keen wit, you may, perhaps.
Because you're handsome, Helen Grey,
Is that a reason to be proud?
Your eyes are bold, your laugh is loud,
Your steps go mincing on their way;
But so you miss that modest charm
which is the surest charm of all:
Take heed, you yer may trip and fall,
And no man care to stretch his arm
Stoop from your cold height, Helen Grey,
Come down, and take a lowlier place;
Come down, to fill it now with grace;
Come down you must perforce some day:
For years cannot be kept at bay.
And fading years will make you old,
Then in their turn will men seem cold,
When you yourself are nipped and grey

Write an essay about the golden rule. If you don’t know what it is, research it. Why might it be important in regards to respect

Answers

THE GOLDEN RULE:TREAT OTHERS THE WAY YOU WANT TO BE TREATED

The golden rule, we've been hearing it since first grade. There's a very important reason we've been hearing it for so long. The golden rule is "Treat others the way you want to be treated." which doesn't apply to everything, but it does in a lot of things. Has someone been rude and made you really mad and you yelled at them? That applies to the golden rule. Have you ever complimented someone and they were really nice to you for some time after that? That applies to the golden rule.

The purpose of this rule is for others to not treat others rudely because, ideally, you wouldn't want someone to be rude to you, and someone being rude back serves as a consequence for being rude to them in the first place. Then if you're nice to someone, you'd ideally want someone to be nice and friendly to you.

For some people, they don't apply to this rule. They may simply not care if someone's nice to them, or if someone is mean back. In fact, they like to see someone disappointed because they were so nice, or laugh at someone trying to be rude back. The rule is still very important, because in the face of kindness and respect it serves a big purpose even though rude people may simply not care.

It's so important because it teaches others to be nice, it teaches others to think before they speak, and it teaches others that if they aren't nice to someone they won't like the outcome. Some people still don't have the courage to let out all their anger, but some people are just shy around people and that's perfectly okay. If you want to let everyone know how you feel, that's perfectly okay too. I know everyone hears this a lot, but everyone's different and nobody's perfect, and as common as that saying may be it isn't any less true. And as common as the golden rule may be it isn't any less true.

We've been hearing it for so long because it's true and it plays a big part in regards of respect and kindness.

is this long enough? i'm not sure. anyways, hope this helps :)
