AP English Lit on Thursday

<p>And what was the question with renown and minor talent?</p>

<p>Oh you’re talking about the question that asked about the guy who got fame after Achilles xD</p>

<p>Yeah the answer was almost certainty gained renown or something with renown in it</p>

<p>It was old friends for that question.</p>

<p>The time question for Achilles was personification.</p>

<p>@Shaq: What did the speaker think of Marcius? </p>

<p>I felt like the Achilles one was the easiest.</p>

<p>Iluvskool it was friends.</p>

<p>The Time question was also what Ulysses spoke most about (one of the last questions in the passage).</p>

<p>I think the gained renown question had to do with the gods recognizing him or something to that extent.</p>

<p>@Shaq395 I thought it was the journalists and art people!</p>

<p>YES! Got the time one right :D</p>

<p>The gained renown question was not about Achilles himself. It was about the other guy that has everyone’s praise currently. He was not Achilles’s rival.</p>

<p>Despair

  2. In was the word omitted</p>

<p>I thought it was the ladies and the lads(woman and man) that breathed easier, since the old friends barricaded their stores,bed,and cellars when Marius’s and his bear friends came to town.</p>

<p>For Achilles, he gained leadership because he had fans/ people followed him</p>

<p>I don’t even remember the Time question. Was it something like What is Time being referred to or something?</p>

<p>Also, has Marius not died, he would’ve been a petty criminal. He did have some consequence because he caused trouble</p>

<p>The journalists were not relieved by Marius’ death. They were saddened by it.</p>

<p>@Rain: About the lady, I think it was referring to her state. So I thought the answer was fragile.</p>

<p>The last time question had to do with what Ulysses (Odysses?) talked about the most, and the answer was time.</p>

<p>@Descuff it was saying like what is the main thing that Ulysses talks about in his little monologue deal.</p>

<p>I don’t remember anything about “renowned” I only remember the answer I picked was Ajax gained leadership of the Greeks… because I had just finished studying the Iliad and I think that was what actually happened lol</p>
