the themes of "Atalanta, the Fleet-Footed Huntress" is the actions of a person matter more than his or her gender. Which detail from the story best conveys this theme? "'What is a girl good for?' raged the king. 'She can never do anything but sing and spin.'" "She leveled her spear, and threw it with all her might. The boar squealed as the sharp point pierced its skin." "The young heroes in the lands nearest to Arcadia did nothing else but talk about her beauty, grace, swiftness, and courage." "The men gasped. They had never heard of such a thing as a girl going out with

"The men gasped. They had never heard of such a thing as a girl going out with heroes to hunt wild boars."

Explanation:

In 'Old Greek Stories' written by James Baldwin, he recounts one of the story of 'Atlanta, the Fleet Footed Huntress'. In Greek mythology, Atlanta was a Greek goddess, who could equally compete with men whether in racing or wrestling, etc.

The central theme of the story is that behavior or action is more important than anyone's gender. The text that supports this theme from the story is in the Fourth option. In this incident, Atlanta stands up to go with the hunters to go and hunt wild boars with them. All the men of the village were shocked to see a girl daring to go with the hunters to hunt wild boars.

After this incident, when Atlanta along with other hunters went into the forest to hunt, she was able to hunt a wild boar, whom an old hunting hero missed by levelling his spear which missed the aim at the boar and only pierced its skin but pierced the heart of a warrior on the other side.

Therefore, option fourth is correct.

for this, you need to remember something significant in your own life, for example, if you were bullied when you were younger, you can mention your memories on this and touch on how such treatment can harm other kids your age either physically or mentally. (racism, car crashes, a parent in the hospital are all very good subjects, think hard on it! )

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
