Can anyone awnser these ALL? Its about Chiron.
Awnser it like: EX- 4. - A
HERMES: This is Hermes, Messenger of the Gods, reporting for the Greek Mythology News Network, live from Mount Pelion.1 We’re lucky today to be joined by Chiron the Centaur — the extremely talented mentor who trained many of the heroes we feature regularly on our show. Chiron, I’ve heard you had a challenging childhood — what happened and how did you get through it?
CHIRON: It is true, my early years were not easy. As a baby, I was abandoned by my parents, Cronus2 and Philyra. My mother was disgusted by my half-human, half-horse appearance. Luckily, the god Apollo and his sister Artemis discovered me, and they found it in their hearts to take me in and raise me as their own. From Apollo, I learned about music and medicine. From Artemis, I learned about archery3 and hunting. With their guidance I have been able to master all of these skills and more.
HERMES: Fascinating! And thank the stars4 for Apollo and Artemis. What else do you think separates you from other typical centaurs?
CHIRON: Well, as you can see, my two front legs are not horse legs but human legs — this is a significant difference. Additionally, I enjoy wearing human clothing from time to time, something my centaur brothers and sisters never try. I embrace5 civilization, that’s why I’ve been able to develop friendships with gods, goddesses, and humans alike.
HERMES: Speaking of which, the hero Peleus speaks very highly of you. How long have you known him and how did you make such a strong impression on him?
CHIRON: I’ve known Peleus for many years. As a young man, he was left stranded in the wilderness by the traitor Acastus. Fortunately, I came across Peleus and was able to restore him to his full strength and even give him some advice as to how to win over the woman of his dreams, Thetis the ocean nymph!6 Eventually, Peleus returned to me and asked me to train his son, Achilles. Now Achilles is one of the greatest archers in the world! Possibly even better than me...
HERMES: Oh, wow! I didn’t know you trained Achilles! Do you have any other stories about students of yours whom our viewers may have heard of?
CHIRON: Well, Ajax, who fought alongside Achilles in the Trojan War, was also brought to me as a young boy for training. And of course, Apollo, my adoptive father, brought his son Asclepius to me, as well. Asclepius was particularly adept7 at the healing arts,8 and I’m honored to have had a hand in sculpting the great god of medicine. Actually, one of my favorite stories isn’t about my years as a teacher but rather as a healer. You see, tragically, Phoenix — another one of Achilles’ mentors — was blinded during a fight with his father, Amyntor. Using my knowledge of herbal medicine, I was able to restore Phoenix’s sight. This is certainly one of my proudest accomplishments.
HERMES: Just incredible. We really are blessed to have such a talented centaur in our midst.9 Well, Chiron, I know your time is short, just one last question though. Seeing as you are an oracle10 — on top of all your other abilities — do you have any predictions about what, if anything, may ultimately cause your death?
CHIRON: I don’t pretend to know anything for certain, and I try to shy away11 from looking into my own future. However, my gifted daughter Melanippe has foretold my death. Though she was disturbed by the vision and is not willing to speak openly about it, she did mention it involved Heracles and an arrow... My only wish is that my death is not in vain,12 that someone or something else benefits from my passing.
HERMES: Oh my! For the sake of the world, I certainly hope Melanippe is wrong! Well, you heard it all here first folks! Tune in after the break for Cooking with Hestia.13
Answer:
Explanation:
1. A
2. B
3. D
4. C
5. Chiron is well known with the gods, as said, he was even helped by them. Chiron is has also done incredible things in his life, even impressed Heremes, a god, to top it off, Chiron trained Achilles, and used his knowledge of medicine to help Phoinex (Achilles mentor).

1. What was the
primary reason for
the colonization of
Jamestown?
Answer: In 1612, John Rolfe, one of many shipwrecked on Bermuda, helped turn the settlement into a profitable venture. He introduced a new strain of tobacco from seeds he brought from elsewhere. Tobacco became the long awaited cash crop for the Virginia Company, who wanted to make money off their investment in Jamestown.Tobacco cultivation required large amounts of land and labor and stimulated the rapid growth of the Virginia colony. Settlers moved onto the lands occupied by the Powhatan Indians, and increased numbers of indentured servants came to Virginia. The first documented Africans in Virginia arrived in 1619.
Answer:
(please, give brainliest by the way)

DBQ: This adapted excerpt is from Periclesś funeral orientation, given to the people of Athens around 430 B.C.E.
Our plan of government favors the many instead of the few; that is why it is called a democracy...
As for our social standing, advancement is open to everyone, according to ability. While every citizen has an equal opportunity to serve the public, we reward our most distinguished citizens by asking them to make our political decisions. Nor do we discriminate against the poor. A man may serve his country no matter how low his position on the social scale.
Question: What type of government was Pericles describing? What were his expectations for citizens in this type of government?
Pericles was not the founder or inventor of democracy, but he came to its leadership only a half-century after its invention, when it was still fragile. He certainly played the chief role in transforming it from a limited democracy where the common people still deferred to their aristocratic betters to a fully confident popular government in which the mass of the people were fully sovereign in fact as well as theory. Aside from its value as a study in political greatness, therefore, Pericles’ career offers instruction in how a new and fragile democracy can be brought to maturity.
Pericles’ long tenure as a political leader, more than thirty years, permitted him to aim at goals that went far beyond the immediate concerns that fully occupy most politicians and statesmen. He was one of those rare individuals who do not merely accept the conditions of the world they find but try to shape it to an image in their own minds. He saw the opportunity to create the greatest political community the world had ever known, one that would fulfill man’s strongest and deepest passions–for glory and immortality. The satisfaction of these passions normally implies extraordinary inequality; yet Pericles believed it could be achieved by the citizens of a democracy based on legal and political equality. At the same time, he intended to create a quality of life never before known, one that would allow men to pursue their private interests but also enable them to seek the highest goals by placing their interests at the service of a city that fostered and relied upon reason for its greatness.

By the 1840s steamboats faced increased pressure from what?
A. Stagecoach
B. Trains
C. Clipper ships
D. Pony express
Answer:
c
Explanation:
no one needs steamboats
By the 1840s steamboats were facing increasing pressure from B. Trains.
Steamboats became widely used in the early 19th century when they began to replace wind-powered boats which used sails.
Their dominance did not last for long however because by the mid 18th century, railroads were increasingly being built which allowed trains to carry goods to areas that ships couldn't at a faster rate.
Steamboats therefore did not get to enjoy much of their dominance as a result of trains being increasingly used by people to transport goods and services.
