Describe in detail the trick that Penelope used to deceive the suitors and hold off a marriage. PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST.
Answer:
Penelope said that before she married, she had to weave a burial shroud for Lord Laertes. At night, she would in weave what she had done during the day to hold off the suitors. After three years they discover her trick, and she is forced to finish the shroud.
Answer:
She claimed that she would choose a husband as soon as the shroud was completed. By day, the queen, a renowned weaver, worked on a great loom in the royal halls. At night, she secretly unraveled what she had done, amazingly deceiving the young suitors. Her ploy failed only when one of her servants eventually betrayed her and told the suitors what was happening.
The contest of the bow and axes is another example of Penelope's guile; it also illustrates her wry sense of destiny. After Odysseus returns to Ithaca, the queen announces first to the visiting beggar, whom she suspects to be Odysseus, that she will hold a contest in which the suitors will be asked to string the great bow of Odysseus and shoot an arrow through a dozen axes, an old trick of her husband's, and that she will be the wife of the man who can perform the feat. The choice of this particular contest is no coincidence; Penelope knows exactly what she is doing. If the old beggar really is Odysseus in disguise, he alone has any realistic chance of winning the contest.

Thoreau’s ideas had a profound effect on a man named Gandhi. Gandhi, was a leader in India who worked to end British rule. He led India to independence and inspired many to non-violent forms of protest and resistance. He fought to end poverty, worked to expand women's right to vote, and built bridges between ethnic and religious groups. Like Thoreau, he lived simply, owned very little, and ate a vegetarian diet. In India, Gandhi's form of protest was called the "non-cooperation movement." He urged Indians to boycott British education systems and leave government jobs. The movement was very popular, and in part to stop its spread, the British controlled government arrested him. After a few years, he was released and became active in politics again. He inspired many to follow him on marches to protest various taxes. On one such march, thousands followed him 240 miles over 24 days to the sea to protest a salt tax. This march set the example of non-violent resistance to the government that others in the country followed. Eventually India won independence from Britain, in large part because of Gandhi work.
Gandhi's model of resistance and reform was creative, appealing, and successful. As a result, Dr. Martin Luther King looked to Gandhi when the time came to find a way to resist segregation in the South. The lunch counter protests, famous for the passive response to anger, and even violence, aimed to end the separation enforced by laws in some regions of the South. King also organized walks, marches, and bus rides that were meant to bring attention to the issues facing African Americans. These forms of protest were directly modeled on Gandhi's, but King took them straight to the source of oppression. Where Gandhi's protests created awareness and built momentum, King's protests were in the face of great hatred and fear. The passive, non-violent protests were ultimately effective, mainly because the passive response to violence cast the opposition as brutes. However, change came slowly and at the cost of many lives. King remained committed to peaceful protest, however, until his death. King learned from Gandhi, expanding on what worked, applying old techniques to a new problem. Gandhi owed his philosophy, in part, to a New England poet who loved the woods.
Which of the following best explains how King's forms of protest built upon what Gandhi had done?
King gave protesters an alternative to being arrested.
King made Gandhi's model more confrontational.
King taught people how to resist more passively than Gandhi.
King required protesters to endure brutality unlike those of Gandhi.
B- King made Gandhi's model more confrontational.
The passage says that King took his protest straight to the source of oppression. Meaning that he and his protesters actively worked at the sites of oppression- lunch counters where African Americans were not allowed to be, or marches to places where violence was being done. This meant that his protesters had to face more brutality.

Excerpt from The Junior Detective
Marie Devers
When I find a question that reguires investigation,
pull out all the stops and start my thorough speculation
I believe in accuracy, and truth for all involved,
and always staying neutral til the case is all but solved.
Each occurrence that I witness is a clue to ponder ever-
till take the case and make it my own personal endeavor.
interview each villain, and I never give an inch
I notice all the ticks, and I explore each blink and finch
I ensure each alibi is honest; check each testimony,
and I find the real exception and expose it from the phony
What can the reader infer the junio detective deduces from a villain's ticks, blinks and tinches?
that the villain is lying to the junior detective
5
that he has solved the crime and found the culprit
that the crime being investigated never really happened
that there is no needence to be found for the time
Answer:
A). that the villain is lying to the junior detective
Explanation:
The readers can deduce that the detective cross-checks every statement or testimony given by villian and also notices his/her ticks and blinks in order to identify if he/she is lying ot trying to manipulate the case. It assists the readers in understanding how detective notices every action of the villian while interviewing to dig out the real truth and ensure that the real culprit is punished and no innocent suffers punishment. Thus, option A is the correct answer.
