<span>Well, one aspect of myths that cannot be denied is that they are ubiquitous across all countries and cultures.

The Greeks were the ones who mostly made up the myths and legends like the Greek gods then the Romans adapted their myths and changed them into their own but the answer is they did not know what to think of the world around them leaving them with the option of them making stories up to explain these things to themselves and their children

After reading this except from leo tolstoy’s the death of ivan ilyich I've recognized the sentence which shows that ivan ilyich’s daughter, lisa, does not empathize with her father’s suffering almos in the end of the excerpt. I am pretty sure that this sentence best shows what you need.

In the poem "mending wall" by robert frost, what does the neighbor believe to be the best way to ensure friendly relations?

Alexus [3.1K]

The best way according to him is to make a good fence. The poem's final lines says that good fences make good neighbors. That can mean that if you stick your nose in your yard you will have good neighbors. Of course, this is all figuratively and refers to much greater things in life.

For many weeks we had been accustomed to see property

Ainat [17]

Answer:

B. Depressing

Explanation:

In the excerpt, the narrator is giving information about the previous and new place in which the characters are placed, and the general idea is that they were used to see property abandoned and dead animals (certainly not a very nice image). But, in this new place everything gets worse, and it turns out to be disturbing for the characters.
