How is the story of the flood in the epic of gilgamesh similar to the flood story from the bible

Answers

Answer:

The story of the flood can be found in many ancient nations' mythology. Here will be given some of the striking similarities between versions of this story from The Epic of Gilgamesh and from The Bible.

Firstly, the flood was sent as a punishment for people's sins and misbehavior. One man was informed about the disaster; in The Bible it was Noah, in the Gilgamesh it was Utnapishtim. Both men built an ark containing many compartments and only one door. All animal species were brought on the boat. Although the flood didn't last the same amount of time in the two stories, its consequences were the same: the water covered the ground and the ark passengers were the only ones left alive.

Also, both boats landed on a mountain peak and both protagonists sent birds to check for nearby land.

Finally, both man offered sacrifice after the flood was over.

Of course, these are only some of the biggest similarities between the two stories. After more careful reading of the stories, one will surely be able to find few similarities more.

I hope this helped.

Which detail from the beginning of part 1 of "For the Win" most supports the prediction that Dean will not properly care for his dogs during the race? From track and field to archery, Dean was always the winner, but that wasn't what bothered Jake. "Now Dean shows up to ruin everything," he thought as he checked his gear one last time. "Dean knows nothing about dogs. He simply spent a whole bunch of money to buy a top team and a fancy sled." The blog posts of the last week had only made matters worse. Jake and Dean were the two youngest mushers in this year's race . . .

Answers

Answer:

"Dean knows nothing about dogs. He simply spent a whole bunch of money to buy a top team and a fancy sled."

Explanation:

According to the excerpt, Jake grumbles about Dean being the winner in pretty much anything he competes in.

However, he was not bothered about that now, but the fact that Dean does not know anything about dogs, he only spends a lot of money getting dogs and a fancy sled.

Therefore, the detail from the excerpt that supports the prediction that Dean will not properly care for his dogs during the race is the detail where Jake alleges that Dean knows nothing about dogs and insinuates that he would do anything to win because he's spent a lot of money on the dogs.

What is a central idea in the story "Bul-GO!-gi" about the children of immigrants?


They are pulled between the traditions of their parents' culture and the changes required by a new culture.


They have to either work hard and succeed or be independent and well-liked.


They must face challenges with their parents because of generational differences.

They decide whether to portray stories about growing up as humorous or challenging.

Question 2
Part B

Which detail from the story supports the answer in Part A?


"Still, she was determined not to force Seo-Jun to do the things her mother had forced her to do. He wouldn't have to take violin lessons, nor would he have to learn Korean."

"She even loved playing softball; she had a wickedly fast windmill pitch, having played throughout college and graduate school and on the law firm's recreational team."

"She was American, just as much as she was Korean, and even though her mother wouldn't have wanted her to do it, starting the food truck was Ji-Suk's way of honoring her mother and showing that she valued what her mother had taught her."

"...she'd made Ji-Suk take Korean lessons every Saturday morning followed by violin lessons in the afternoon—and cooked kimchi and other Korean delicacies with her at least once a week..."

Answers

Answer:Part A : The statement that best states a central idea in the text about children of immigrants is "They are pulled between the traditions of their parents' culture and the changes required by a new culture."

Part B : The detail from the story that supports the answer in Part A is " Ji-Suk wonders about her son's preference for friends rather than activities."

write one paragraph about the things that make you stressed and how you deal with these things

Answers

Answer:

 School, family, and friends are the things that make me stress a lot. I usually stay quiet and not say a word. But when I do, my family/friends think I'm being a drama queen, and that causes more stress. So, I deal with these things by myself. I try to relax, get some alone time, and forget all my problems. I've learned that stress causes headaches, so I try to clam down and not stress out a lot.

  I always make sure that I can at least have a few minutes alone, to clam down and relax. Most of the time, I listen to calming music and breathe in and out. I've been stressing a lot these days, so this is the time I stay silence. But, I've always found a way to relax and not think of the world's expectations of me, but instead think about my expectations of myself.

Read the first stanza of "The Tide Rises, The Tide Falls."

The tide rises, the tide falls,
The twilight darkens, the curlew calls;
Along the sea-sands damp and brown
The traveller hastens toward the town,
And the tide rises, the tide falls.

Why does the poet most likely use the words “damp and brown” to describe the sands?
to create a subdued mood within the poem
to make the poem more haunting or unsettling
to give a sense of the time of year
to evoke sadness within the reader

If you and your brother are in a group, it wouldn't make sense to say they're his. It'd be theirs because his friends are in the other group and it's their candy.
