What inference can be made about the Gorgons in "Perseus and the Quest for Medusa's Head"? They were unaware of Perseus approaching them on the bank and his attack surprised them. They tried to look at Perseus and turn him to stone, but their powers had disappeared. They were pretending to be asleep and were prepared to defend themselves. They could smell Perseus approaching, but did not know he was a danger to them.
Answer:
They were unaware of Perseus approaching them on the bank and his attack surprised them.
Explanation:
The Greek mythological tale of "Perseus and the Quest for Medusa's Head" tells the tale of how Perseus had to get Medusa's head for the king of the land they had drifted to. His quest to get the monster's head was aided by the gods who pity the young demi-god.
The Gorgons are monstrous creatures with heads full of snakes and their stares can turn a man to stone. Perseus, under the guidance of divine creatures and the gods on his side, was able to swiftly cut Medusa's head while the three Gorgons were sleeping among the weeds. Then, he swiftly flew away before the two other siblings could catch him, even though they couldn't see him as he was hidden by the Cap of Darkness.
Thus, the correct answer is the first option.
Answer:
Part A: They were unaware of Perseus approaching them on the bank and his attack surprised them.
Part B: "Very stealthily he went nearer and nearer, always with his back toward the monsters and always looking into his bright shield to see where to go."

Why did Poe choose a pendulum and not a guillotine, which was a more common instrument of torture (in both historical time periods)? For extra credit: identify the many ways Poe describes the pendulum (examples: a glistening axe, the destroying crescent)
Poe chooses the pendulum to provoke horror and psychological terror in the reader, as death by the guillotine would be very quick.
Common features in Poe's worksHorror and terror.The psychological pressure.The torture.The hopelessness.The extreme fear.Although the guillotine was the most common instrument of torture at the time, Poe needed to bring psychological terror into his work.

Why did no one understand how Hans could do such remarkable and unusual feats?
Answer:
Animals
Explanation:
The number faculty is profoundly rooted in our biological ancestry, not dependent on our ability to use words. In view of the multitude of contexts in which we humans use numerical knowledge, life without numbers is inconceivable.
It turns out that processing numbers provide a major survival advantage, which is why this behavioural characteristic is present in many animal populations. Several research studying animals in their ecological settings indicate that the representation of numbers increases the ability of animals to access food sources, hunt prey, escape predation, navigate their habitat, and persist in social interactions.

Immigrant Kids by Russell Freedman. Edward Corsi, who later became United States Commissioner of Immigration, was a ten-year-old Italian immigrant when he sailed into New York harbor in 1907: My first impressions of the New World will always remain etched in my memory, particularly that hazy October morning when I first saw Ellis Island. The steamer Florida, fourteen days out of Naples, filled to capacity with 1600 natives of Italy, had weathered one of the worst storms in our captain's memory; and glad we were, both children and grown-ups, to leave the open sea and come at last through the Narrows into the Bay.
