Contemptuous ridicule or mockery
Answer:
The prophecy of the Oracle that the Trojan War will begin with an apple is rightly so because the fight for the apple led to Aphrodite's claim for it. This then led to her promise to help get Helen for Paris, which led to the Trojan War. And the war ended after the Greek armies sneaked into the Trojan city by hiding inside a wooden horse sent to the Trojans as a peace symbol.
Explanation:
The Oracle's prophecy of<em> "What Began with an Apple; Must End With a Horse"</em> reveals what the Trojan War will be like and why it must be so. The case of <em>“the Apple</em>” is the apple of discord that the three goddesses fought over. This is the Judgement of Paris, where the three goddesses Aphrodite, Athene, and Hera went to Paris, the shepherd to lay claim to the apple which will claim her the fairest.
Paris chose Aphrodite as the rightful owner of the golden apple for she had promised him to get Helen, the most beautiful girl for him. And it was this promise which led to the abduction of Helen from her husband Menelaus, the King of Sparta. This further led to the Battle of Troy which ended only after the Greeks sneaked into the Trojan city inside a wooden horse.
Thus, the prophecy had rightly foretold the beginning and end of the Trojan war, which will begin with the Apple of Discord and end with the wooden horse filled with the Greek armies sneaking inside Troy.

Explanation:
It was a fine day when I decided to go for hunting with my father so I went to convince him but when i entered in his room, I saw that he was sleeping. Then I had to go back to the parlor and wait him out. About an hour later, he was up as I saw him walking in the veranda. I walked up to him greeted and asked if I could go hunting with him.
Surprisingly, he agreed, saying he'd wanted to put it to me few weeks back but he didn't want it to seem as though he were coercing me. We took breakfast and set out to the woods behind our house and he taught me how to handle a gun. Of course I was shaking since I'd always steered clear of it. But after a few words, I did take the gun and hold it. He taught me to shoot also, but perhaps, I was wrong with my intuition on wanting to learn to hunt. I'd made only one shot and I was shivering. He had to take me back to the house that morning.
My first time outing was a disaster, but he told me not to worry about it that it happens. I haven't made up my mind if I'd go for another trial yet.
Four challenges that could impact domestic tourism could include natural disasters like forest fires keeping people out of an area due to the danger to life and limb, social unrest such as in Venezuela right now with the violence of the right wing in Caracas especially, poor economy with high unemployment so that many people can't afford to travel even locally, and seasonal activities that can only be done in certain parts of the year like boating in the summer and skiing in the winter.
