1.为什么Odysseus是英雄?
How do you define a hero? Some may define a hero as someone with great courage and brery; to others a hero might be a strong warrior and leader who wins battles; others may define a hero as one who uses his brain as much as his brawn to win. In Homer's epic poem, Odyssey, Odysseus is portrayed as a hero by every definition.
Courage and brery are two things that Odysseus has a lot of. This is evident when he defies the god Poseidon, telling him that he is unstoppable. Odysseus then gets back on his ship on starts to sail on Poseidon's waters back to Ithaca. Pride is good to he, but in Odysseus抯 case, it抯 a little too much. On the other hand, he does things that make him a great hero. When Circeturned his crew into animals, he climbed straight up a mountain, risking his life just to se his crew. He will do anything to get back to Ithaca and see his wife and son, no matter how crazy it is. He even goes into the underworld to speak to a prophet about how to get back to Ithaca. Being bre and courageous is all about being willing and able to go to the extremes to help or possibly se people or even a place in need.
As well as hing courage and brery, Odysseus is also a strong warrior and leader. Living as king of Ithaca, he leads his fleet of warriors across Poseidon抯 sea into a great battle against the Trojans. It is here where Odysseus and his fleet of warriors defeated the Trojans because of his great leadership. Knowing that he cannot defeat the Trojans from outside the immense walls, he comes up with a different plan. A plan that will get him through the walls with a little help from Poseidon. He makes a giant wooden horse (Trojan Horse) and has a person present it as a gift to accept a peace with them. The Trojans accept the gift and open the walls for the horse, not knowing that inside the horse was Odysseus and a small fleet of soldiers. The Trojans had a great celebration for what they thought was a victory. As the Trojans finally went to sleep, Odysseus and his fleet crept out of the horse and completely slaughtered the Trojans in a very bloody battle. Ithaca was victorious and the soldiers could now return back home hy, all because of the great leadership of Odysseus. Odysseus and his soldiers were mighty warriors and did he the strength to defeat the Trojans, but Odysseus used something that was more powerful than his strength - intelligence.
Intelligence is the one thing that Odysseus has the most of and also the reason why he not only defeated the Trojans, but also survived the great journey he went through to get back to Ithaca. Throughout the story, Odysseus often hesitates before acting. This being because he uses his reason and his gift of intelligence to evaluate what the situation is. This patience is one of his most important attributes. It has sed him and his men many times, and can be easily seen in numerous instances throughout his journey, not only when he makes the wooden horse, but times such as when he disguises himself as a beggar when he finally reached Ithaca. Here he used his patience and waited for the right moment to reveal himself. Many people in his situation would抳e been too anxious to wait and would immediately show who he was, risking a chance of being killed. Odysseus hesitated and used his reason to think of a better way to show himself. He succeeds and things work out just the way he wants.
Like many heroes, Odysseus does he weaknesses such as his chronic cheating problem and his problem with pride. Nonetheless, Odysseus survived all that hened to him. His courage, brery, wits, and endurance enable him to come through each and every challenge and eventually arrive home safely. Thus proving himself worthy of being a true hero.
When you think about Greek Epic heroes, Odysseus will most
likely come to mind. Odysseus is the main character in
Homer's poem "The Odyssey." "The Odyssey" is a narrative
poem that describes Odysseus' adventures and obstacles in
his quest to return home to Ithaca, where he is king, from
the Trojan war. Odysseus has been gone for two decades. All
the other chieftains he returned home, however, Odysseus'
whereabouts are unknown.
One of the things that makes Odysseus a Greek hero is that
he is fored by the gods. In the Odyssey the gods help
Odysseus many times. When Poseidon struck Odysseus' ship
with lightning, Odysseus was able to survive because a
goddess named Ino ge him a magical cloak. The cloak
prevents Odysseus from drowning. When Odysseus' men are
turned into swine by Circe, Hermes the messenger god gives
Odysseus a magical herb that prevents Circe from using her
spells on him. Due to this Odysseus was able to gain for
in Circe's eyes and he convinced her to turn his men back
to normal. Towards the end of the book, when Odysseus
returns to Ithica, Athena disguises him as a beggar. The
disguise was to fool the suitors, who are eating Odysseus
out of his home and are harassing his wife Penelope, and to
get Odysseus access to the palace.
The ancient Greeks used to say that a true hero must show
respect to the gods by giving them sacrifices and praying
to them. Odysseus gives sacrifices to the gods in many
instances in "The Odyssey." When Odysseus goes to Hades ,
the underworld, he sacrifices a ram and an ewe to the gods.
When Odysseus defeats Polyphemus, the Cyclops, who is the
son of Poseidon the god of the sea, Odysseus gives
sacrifices to the gods. Lastly when Odysseus defeats those
horrible suitors that outnumbered him by so much Odysseus
realizes that it was the gods who helped him do this. The
feats of strength and the ability to overcome
insurmountable odds could not be performed by a mere mortal
without help from the gods. Therefore he makes sacrifices
to the gods. When Odysseus is in trouble he always shows
that he is depending on the gods by praying to them. The
fact that the gods usually listen to him shows that he is
well liked by the gods. In order to be a Greek hero you had
to be liked by the gods since religion was such a big part
in their lives.
Odysseus, with the help of the gods, can survive adventures
that kill most other men. Odysseus trels to the island of
the Cyclopians. The Cyclopians are giants that he one
eye, they don't fear the gods because they believe that
they are better than the gods and they eat people. They
represent the opposite of what Greek men should be.
Odysseus and his men meet Polyphemus the cyclops.
Polyphemus being a cyclops eats some of Odysseus' men.
Odysseus with the help of the gods figures out a plan to
escape and he does. Scylla is a ferocious monster with six
heads that kills most men that pass by her island. She
kills six of Odysseus' men. Odysseus prevents her from
killing himself and more men . There is another ferocious
monster named Charybdis. Charybdis sucks in water from the
sea and creates a whirlpool that kills any ship that passes
by. Odysseus passes by her. His crew is killed and his ship
is destroyed in the whirlpool but Odysseus alone survives.
There is an island that Odysseus passes by with monsters
called Sirens on it. The Sirens sing beautiful songs that
lure ships toward them. The ships then crash into the
island and the people are killed. Nobody has heard the song
of the Sirens and survived. Odysseus is warned of this
island by a god. He then puts plugs in his men's ears
because Odysseus wants to hear the song, he ties himself to
the front of the boat and tells his men to tighten his
ropes if he tries to get away. Odysseus and his men survive
and Odysseus is the only mortal to hear the song of the
Sirens and live to tell it.
The pictures and sculptures of the ancient Greeks showed
only men with perfect bodies and men in battle. Therefore
in order to be a true Greek epic hero you had to be both
strong and good in battle. Odysseus showed both of these
signs. Odysseus trels to the land of the Phaeacians. The
Phaeacians he many games such as the discus throw and a
jelin throw. Odysseus wins all of these events. When
Odysseus gets back to Ithica Penelope, thinking that
Odysseus her husband is dead, has a contest in which she
will marry the winner. The winner must string a bow and
shoot an arrow through twelve axes on the floor. All of the
mighty suitors try, but none of them come even close to
triumph. Odysseus, being dressed up as a beggar, tries it
and succeeds. The suitors were all mighty men but Odysseus
was the only one to triumph. This shows his greatness.
After this a war breaks out and Odysseus befriended only by
Eumaeus the swineherd and Malanthius the goatherd defeats
all of the suitors. The fact that Odysseus was able to
defeat the suitors definitely shows that Odysseus is truly
a great warrior.
Odysseus is a true Greek epic hero . When he is able to use
power given to him by the gods, he does so willingly.
However this alone would not make him a hero. This would
only make him a servant of the gods. Odysseus uses his
intellect, farsightedness, and insight to control his fate
as best as he can. For example, when he returns home,
rather then revealing his true identity Odysseus uses
patience and caution to devise and execute a plan that will
defeat the suitors. Odysseus is now acting independently of
the gods and his heroic personality triumphs.

Odysseus, the Hero
Written by: Unregistered
An individual抯 characteristics are the key to their behior. Homer抯 The Odyssey takes place about 700BC in the Mediterranean, near Greece. The epic tells of a man who left his home twenty years earlier to fight in the Trojan War. His mission now is to make his way home to Ithaca. Odysseus shows good and bad traits throughout the epic that influence his way home . (65 words)
The courage and wisdom of Odysseus help him survive through the whole epic. For example, Odysseus kills the Cyclops while the giant is asleep, even though the monster ate two men minutes before (P.110). Odysseus has courage to stand up for his beliefs and never lets the opinion of others keep him from doing what is right. Some think Odysseus shows his courage throughout the epic because he is proud and does not want to lee any job unfinished. Furthermore, Odysseus by plugs the sailors?ears with wax when going through the Sirens, whose sweet singing lures sailors to there doom (p. 141). Odysseus often hesitates before acting, because he uses reason to evaluate the situation, which ses him and his men many times. Odysseus knows that there is no progress without the wisdom to back it up. Using courage and wisdom throughout life allows a person to see greatness in life.
As great as he was, Odysseus still had some weaknesses, most importantly that of his pride and sensualness, that prolongs his voyage back to Ithaca. This is clearly evident in the episode on the Cyclopes?Island when Odysseus and his men are safely away from the island when Odysseus brags about his exploits making Polythemus hurl giant boulders almost sinking the ship (P. 114). This incident hurt Odysseus more than just losing a few men, because Poseidon makes his trel home very long and arduous. This proud characteristic shows Odysseus has a lack of respect for others and that he is selfish. Furthermore, Odysseus stays with Circe for one year before his men remind him of home (p. 116). This characteristic of sensualness demonstrates that Odysseus is unable to resist temptation. This hinders his mission; setting him back in his journey. Odysseus抯 weaknesses in life downsize him, making himself less powerful.
The story portrays how an individual抯 characteristics can affect the outcomes of their life. Nonetheless, Odysseus survives all that hens to him. His courage, wisdom, intelligence and endurance enable him to come through each and every difficulty and bring him home safely.

为什么Odysseus是英雄?
食物种类:罗汉的食物种类很多,颗粒、红虫、小鱼虾、泥鳅、牛心、鱿鱼肉、甚至蟑螂等等等等,他们都吃,我家的罗还吃过苹果和黄瓜。但是,我要讲的是并不是所有的这些都适合罗汉吃,这是由于罗汉天生消化系统缺陷造成的,过量进食、食物不洁、都会引起罗汉肠胃问题,而且肠胃问题一旦出现很容易反复,并且治疗难度大,周期长。所以,我推荐的食物依旧按照我对罗汉各个阶段特点,进行一下划分:
(一)1-5cm小苗阶段。在2cm阶段可以投喂丰年虾,这个阶段很短暂,没有必要弄什么花样,老老实实喂就好。2cm之后开始给红虫和碎虾肉,红虫的处理和我后面说的河虾一样,消毒、冷冻、解冻投喂,我以前一个帖子说过我很推荐碎虾肉,我觉得比红虫更有营养,罗的状态非常好,尤其适合金花系的小鱼,因为金花系的鱼相比起珍珠系列的肠胃功能似乎要好上一些。这个阶段的小苗完全不用担心肠胃病,只要活泼就给饱吃,每天可以5-6顿,随着体长增加,逐渐减顿,看罗吃食不太积极后停止喂食。
(二)5-10cm小压成阶段。这个阶段逐渐变为一天3-4顿,在10cm时候变一天为4顿。这阶段的罗汉已经变得初露锋芒,进食也猛了,也可以吃大些的食物了,我建议大家在前一阶段的基础上开始加上功头类颗粒饲料,投喂之前泡软,这样罗吃起来更加容易适口一些。开始饲料每两天给一次,并逐渐增多次数到,10cm时候增加到1天一次饲料,这样做的道理有:1、为后阶段改口饲料做铺垫,2、可以补充些微量元素,3、提供高蛋白质含量、4、攻头阶段开始。
(三)10-20cm塑性阶段。这个阶段一天喂2顿。红虫应果断的舍弃,河虾和饲料成为主角。开始接上之前的比例一天一次河虾一次功头类饲料,有人说河虾到底去皮不去皮?这个问题我记得以前一群人争论了好久,我有几条鱼当时去头尾,不去皮,消化的很好,便便没有一点虾皮残留;我有一条就不行便便总是剩下些皮,掌握一个原则,只要便便有虾皮,一定去皮给,如果没有,那么随便。很多人说虾皮含有大量虾红素,去了可惜,但是我觉得要看情况,分轻重。从15cm开始,一周饿一天。接近20cm的时候逐渐减小河虾的比例。攻头是这个阶段的唯一任务,大家不要考虑怎么我的鱼不红啊?怎么拉线不满啊?怎么颜色不给力啊?之类的问题,水质好的前提下,那些问题都留给20cm以后再来说吧!
(四)20cm以后成鱼阶段。这个阶段鱼各部分比例基本定型(排除金花后期头部变态发力的情况),这个时候就可以适当对体色进行调整了,为什么我不建议提前增色,因为鱼只发色,是趋于性成熟的表现,增色饲料一方面还有虾红素众所周知,另一方面就是含有激素催熟,长期服用激素会使鱼迅速成熟,抑制身体生长,后期会导致未老先衰的情况。所以就是这个阶段投喂,我也建议大家控制比例和数量。再说说拉线的问题,我不知道别人为满身星之类的增加拉线的饲料作用如何?反正我感觉很一般,还不如河虾来的见效,而且这一类的饲料还有螺旋藻类物质,有海苔味道,罗汉并不太爱吃。在25cm后应逐渐减为一天1顿,这样可以减轻鱼消化压力,让鱼适当保持饥饿感可以更活泼,延缓衰老。并且单次投喂量也要适当减少。
投喂总的原则就是小鱼喂饱,大鱼吃少。大鱼如果掌握不好量的话,我建议宁少勿多,鱼绝不会因你多加的那么几粒饲料就会更好地发展,时间长了你会发现,对于每天喂食来说,就算正常食量减半,鱼只的发展水平也是一样的。所以不要没有回报的铤而走险!另外,每条鱼的承受情况和个体差异不同,我所说的都是一些心得和普遍规律,个别情况请区别对待。养殖罗汉一般应用“四定”投喂法,这种方法有利于培养罗汉良好的生活习惯,也有利于它的健康。
定时:指每次投喂的时间和间隔要固定,使罗汉形成良好的进食习惯,减少消化道疾病的发生。一般每天喂食2~3次,每次喂食时间不宜过长,以罗汉在10分钟内吃完为宜。喂食时间应根据季节、温度及气候做相应的调整,如在气压低的天气条件下,喂食次数和每次喂食时间就可以相对减少。
定点:指每次投喂饵料的位置要固定,这样,时间一长,罗汉就会养成定点吃食的习惯,每天到了固定的投喂时间,罗汉都会主动在那等候主人来喂食,很有趣的。
定质:指的是要保证饵料的质量既新鲜又有营养成,不可投喂变质或过期的饵料,有条件的话可以用紫外对饵料进行杀菌。
定量:指投喂的饵料量要相对固定,不能忽多忽少,一般给饵量为罗汉体重的1~2%比较适宜,并根据罗汉的大小、摄食情况、季节变化等来决定应该投喂的饵料量,每次不要喂太多,使鱼在10分钟内吃完为宜。喂食时要注意罗汉的反应,当罗汉食欲减退的时候要停止喂食。
