Read the excerpts about achilleus and hektor from the iliad of homer.

excerpt 1, achilleus:

but brilliant achilleus kept shaking his head at his own people
and would not let them throw their bitter projectiles at hektor
for fear the thrower might win the glory, and himself come second.

excerpt 2, hektor:

i feel shame before the trojans and the trojan women with trailing
robes, that someone who is less of a man than i will say of me:
"hektor believed in his own strength and ruined his people.”
thus they will speak; and as for me, it would be much better
at that time, to go against achilleus, and slay him, and come back,
or else be killed by him in glory in front of the city.

which of the men’s traits is best established in the excerpts?

their intellect
their pride
their bravery
their loyalty

always metal! releases anger and stress! bands i suggest are trivium, lamb of god, slayer, and amon amarth

sentences vary by structure as well as by function. there are compound, complex, and compound-complex sentences.

simple sentence

i like to read.

a simple sentence has one independent clause.

compound sentence

i like to read, and i also like to write.

a compound sentence includes more than one independent clause, connected by a coordinating conjunction (and, but, for, nor, or, so, or yet).

complex sentence

i prefer to read books that are bestsellers.

a complex sentence includes one independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. (a dependent clause is one that cannot stand alone.) types of dependent clauses include relative clauses (i kicked the boy who pinched me), adverb clauses (i am going home now because i have a curfew), and noun clauses (i don't know what to do next).

compound-complex sentence

although i prefer to read current bestsellers, i do like to read old agatha christie mysteries, and i also like some 20th-century science fiction.

compound-complex sentences take a bunch of clauses (multiple independent clauses, and one or more dependent clauses) and toss them together like a salad. although these sentences take practice to write in a grammatically correct fashion, they can hold a tremendous amount of meaning, and are common in academic writing.
