List two instances of Beowulf ’s brave deeds or adventures described in this epic poem.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

In the poem Beowulf, we learn of a great hero who came to the aid of the Danes and defeated a monster called Grendel who had been terrorising them each night. He also had to kill its mother as well.

Beowulf is a great man and two deeds that show this are;

1. Coming to the aid of the Danes

This is the first brave act in the story. Beowulf hears that the Danes are living in fear of a monster who eats people and immediately decides to go to their aid. This is brave because this monster was not his problem and instead of him being glad it was not terrorising his people, he put himself wilfully in harm's way so that he could save the Danes.

2. Deciding to Fight Grendel with his bare hands

Grendel was a monster who was terrorising an entire kingdom, killing people and then eating them which meant that he must have been strong. Upon hearing this however, Beowulf resolved to fight the monster alone so that no one else would be hurt. This showed bravery on his side because whereas others would have wanted to fight in the company of other men upon hearing of the monster's strength, Beowulf resolved to do it alone.

Answers

Answer:

The last text I read that was a non-fiction narrative was one of the entries in "The Diary of Anne Frank".

Explanation:

A nonfiction narrative is a text that presents facts, which can be real or false, but which are portrayed as something that really happens or happened in the author's life, or, tells about a fact that the author knows about a certain topic.

These narratives are presented with first-person narration, in addition to being a descriptive text, presenting facts and situations, which the author believes to be real.

These characteristics can be recognized "The diary of Anne Frank", which is a narrative about moments lived by the author, telling everything she saw and felt during those moments.

What allowed currency in the ancient world to work as a tool for the exchange of goods?

Answers

Answer:

The factors that allowed the development of the currency as a means of exchange of goods in the ancient world were, on the one hand, the development of non-collaborative paid work and, on the other, the appreciation of various goods above the rest.

Thus, on the one hand, work ceased to have a social and community component of collaboration between individuals of the same group, to become an individual activity of own and family survival. In this way, men began to work for their own benefit, accumulating their production for their own consumption, with which the first wealth imbalances began to develop.

On the other hand, certain products (such as salt and then precious metals) began to have a higher value over the rest, breaking production parity and valuing with greater emphasis the production of these goods over the rest, using them as a representation of value and exchange currency for other assets of lesser hierarchy.
