Which statement describes a similarity between pieter brueghel's painting landscape with the fall of icarus and ovid's "the story of daedalus and icarus"? a. both include a reference to daedalus. b. both describe icarus drowning within sight of shore. c. both portray a farmer, a fisherman, and a shepherd. d. both show witnesses attempting to rescue icarus.

The correct answer is C. From Brueghel's painting (in the attached picture below) we can observe the central figures - fisherman, angler and ploughman.  The artwork is the reference to the following lines of Ovid's work:

Far off, far down, some fisherman is watching

As the rod dips and trembles over the water,

Some shepherd rests his weight upon his crook,

Some ploughman on the handles of his ploughshare,

It is the description of Icarus's fly over these central figures - busy with their work. Interestingly, in comparison with its original copy the painting doesn't include the flying of Icarus. However, we can observe the similarities of the figures.  

(i can't select because there is no options but, i will answer) using evidence effectively. most of the assignments you will do in university will ask you to make an argument, to take a stance, or to prove a hypothesis. the best way to do this is to research the topic, develop a thesis statement, hypothesis, or claim and then use evidence to support this claim.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
