1. Are you clear on what "summarize" means? This is not a difficult question.

2. Odysseus spent 10 years returning home from Troy. It's a journey that should have taken about 2 months max! How was he making this journey? Over land? On the sea? Both?

Give these questions a try, and I'll look them over for you once YOU have written them up.

1. the summary of the conflict between odysseus and the cyclops starts when odysseus and his men disturb the cyclops in his cave. for revenge, the cyclops eats on of odysseus men. when odysseus realizes he is trapped, he gives the cyclops some wine and gets him drunk. odysseus and his men blind the cyclops and leave with one of odysseus men tied on each of the cyclops sheep. they finally leave, but with a close call.

thats what i put for #1. is it good enough and then i'll show u #2

Delete the first 12 words, and smooth out that first sentence. Proofread; add capitals in the correct places; add punctuation in the correct places; fix all run-ons. What does "with a close call" mean?

i'm going to add punctuation on my paper. and my English teacher told me to start the answer with part of the question, so that's what i did. if you have a better idea with how to start an answer, i would love to see it.

"with a close call" means that they were almost killed.

CAN YOU PLEASE ANSWER MY QUESTIONS????
Answered by Ms. Sue
I suggest you omit the words, "The summary of . . ."

We're teachers and believe writing substandard English without capitalization and punctuation is not appropriate on an academic forum. When you write anything for others to read, you should always put your best foot forward. That means writing standard English.

Your summary is o.k. Writeacher gave you some ideas to build on for your second answer. What part does Poseidon play in this story?
