Read the excerpt from The Odyssey. What motivates the Cyclops to ask Poseidon for the
O hear me, lord, blue girdler of the islands,
demise of Odysseus and all his men? Check all that
if I am thine indeed, and thou art father:
apply.
grant that Odysseus, raider of cities, never
see his home: Laertes' son, I mean,
O He hates all the Greeks
because they destroyed Troy.
who kept his hail on Ithaca. Should destiny
intend that he shall see his roof again
O He wants revenge for the loss of his eye.
among his family in his father land.
E He thinks all of mankind is weak and feeble.
far be that day, and dark the years between.
Let him lose all
companions, and return
0 He is angered by Odysseus's taunts.
under strange sail to bitter days at home.'

explanation:

each year on this day, i make it a point to listen to dr. martin luther king jr.’s great “i have a dream” speech. it’s electrifying every single time.

the content of dr. king’s speech, his inspiring presence, and the moment in history all came together to make the iconic “i have a dream” speech the defining moment of the american civil rights movement. but there are several other reasons why this speech, delivered over 50 years ago, remains an example of one of the best speeches in american history.

since part of my job is to people become better presenters, i’ve noticed several techniques that we can all learn from and be inspired by in this magnificent speech.

it’s anchored in a powerful related location

in most cases, you can’t handpick the spot to give a presentation, as mlk did for supreme symbolic effect when he stood on the steps of the lincoln memorial and echoed the opening words of the gettysburg address (“five score years ago . . ). but you absolutely can amplify your message by adapting it to your setting and location.

i took this test im trying to remember i think it is the first one im super sorry if i remembered wrong!
