how does the contrast between grendel and beowulf turn their conflict into a clash

Answers

Answer:

In Beowulf, an old epic poem, the fight between the Grendel and the Beowulf supports the evidence that it is a symbol of the struggle between the evil and the good due to feud with the almighty God. The symbolism of Beowulf’s gesture in lines 356-359

“wulfgar] then turned quickly to where hrothgar sat

old and hoary with his band of retainers

walked stoutly so that he by shoulders stood

with the lord of the danes ”  

which reveal a theme resulting from this conflict is when Grendel's arms are hung from the rafter by Beowulf. Through this, it depicts that heaven and goodness have prevailed. Hence, through the nature of actions by Beowulf, the theme of violence is highlighted and that of evil versus goodness.

Answer:

They did not know yet that they had entered an empty house.. We find two men entering a dark, silent house

Explanation:

We are all composed of trillions of infinitesimal and very complicated cells, each of
which, in a way, operates just like a city. A city has a council that governs what happens
within the boundaries of the city (the cell's council is the nucleus). The city gets the
power it needs to function from the electricity grid (in a cell, those power sources are
called mitochondria). Construction crews put up a city's buildings (ribosomes make the
proteins in a cell). Warehouses store a city's food, and factories make things to export
(cells have plastids and Golgi bodies to do those things).
How does comparing cells to cities contribute to or detract from the author's purpose?
1
The analogy raises more questions than it answers, rendering it
counterproductive and a detriment to understanding cell function.
2.
The analogy entertains and draws attention to the subject, but doesn't
further understanding of cellular functions.
3
The analogy appropriate for the general audience that the passage
was intended for because it helps visualize cellular functions.

Does the poem "War Is Kind" have a couplet or a quatrain. Does this poem have either? If so, identify which kind.

Here's the poem

Do not weep, maiden, for war is kind.
Because your lover threw wild hands toward the sky
And the affrighted steed ran on alone,
Do not weep.
War is kind.

Hoarse, booming drums of the regiment,
Little souls who thirst for fight,
These men were born to drill and die.
The unexplained glory flies above them,
Great is the battle-god, great, and his kingdom—
A field where a thousand corpses lie.

Do not weep, babe, for war is kind.
Because your father tumbled in the yellow trenches,
Raged at his breast, gulped and died,
Do not weep.
War is kind.

Swift, blazing flag of the regiment,
Eagle with crest of red and gold,
These men were born to drill and die.
Point for them the virtue of slaughter,
Make plain to them the excellence of killing
And a field where a thousand corpses lie.

Mother whose heart hung humble as a button
On the bright splendid shroud of your son,
Do not weep.
War is kind.
